Exhortations From Heb 2:1

The Danger Of Drifting  Many will deny this [Denominationalism]  “Once Saved, Always Saved” is comforting  The writer of Hebrews teaches differently Heb 2:3 3: :4-6, 12 10:26  Whether or not we hear God is of eternal consequence Mt 17:5

“Currents” That Cause Drifting Worldliness Worldliness  This may be the strongest of such “currents”  The warnings Jn 15: : :36 1 Jn 2: :13 Rom 12:2 Jas 4:4

“Currents” That Cause Drifting Worldliness Worldliness  This may be the strongest of such “currents”  The warnings Jn 15: : :36 1 Jn 2: :13 Rom 12:2 Jas 4:4  At the same time, we must be aware of more subtle “currents” that can take just as far

“Currents” That Cause Drifting Ignorance Ignorance  Not a more sure way to be lost Hos 4:6  There is safety in knowledge…not just knowing but doing Heb 5:12-14 Eph 5:17 2 Pet 3:18  Those who make no attempt to grow are certain to “drift away” to their destruction

“Currents” That Cause Drifting Time Time  The passage of time can cause a loss of fervor in a disciple Rev 2:4  The passage of time can cause weariness in doing the Lord’s will Gal 6:9  One might be tempted to “rest on laurels” instead of pressing on Phil 3:12-14

“Currents” That Cause Drifting Familiarity Familiarity  It is the careless disciple who becomes more complacent the more he becomes aware of truth Acts 17:18-21 Jer 6:16  Truth must never lose its “freshness” with those who live by it Acts 17:11 Jas 1:21 2 Thess 2:10

“Currents” That Cause Drifting Familiarity Familiarity  Reminders help saints to continue appreciating Divine truth 2 Pet 1: :1

Conclusion  Part of preaching is exhorting…another part is warning Titus 2:11-15  Warning about things one may already know  Apostasy is subtle  One can be lulled into apathy and before he realizes it, he has “drifted” from safety

Conclusion  We must not enter forbidden waters 2 Jn 9  Even more so, we must take precaution so that we not drift away  Being anchored is the key Heb 6:19  Paying attention to truth is how Heb 2:1-3  Anchor to Christ…lest you drift away!!
