3come short
of it.
Heb. 4

1not being mixed together with faith in those who heard.
Heb. 4

4:3
For we who have believed enter into the rest, even as He has said,

of creation were completed from the
bfoundation of the world.
Heb. 4

a"And God rested on the seventh day from all His works.''
Heb. 4
:5

a"They shall not enter into My rest!''

aGod did from His own.

Let us therefore be diligent to enter into that rest lest anyone
1fall 2after the same example of
3adisobedience.
Heb. 4
:12
4:12
For the
1aword of God is
bliving and operative and sharper than any two-edged
csword, and piercing even to the dividing of
2dsoul and
espirit and of joints and marrow, and able to discern the
3thoughts and intentions of the heart.
Heb. 4

Let us therefore
acome forward with boldness to the
1throne of grace that we may receive
2bmercy and find
cgrace for timely help.
