Hebrews 13
.
“Keep on”
.
In Hebrews 13, we are in a lot of ways coming down the mountain. We still have a struggle ahead of us for sure, but we’ve passed the academic climax and the previous chapter’s spiritual affect has landed. We’re now left with the classic Christian question: what next? The author makes it clear, in their fortifying statements and gentle warnings, that we’re not supposed to sit at the foot of the mountain: we’re supposed to keep going. We’re supposed to take what we’ve learned, and take what beauty has been given to us, and share it with the world. Really, though this has a sense of finality to it, this is not the end; it’s only the beginning of a new and greater chapter.
.
“Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.”
