Hebrews 6:9-20

The Inheritance of the Promises

9 But we are convinced about you, ^abeloved, of things that are better and that belong to salvation, though we are speaking in this way. 10 For ^aGod is not unrighteous so as to forget ^byour work and the love which you have shown toward His name, in having ^cministered and continuing to minister to the ¹saints. 11 And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence ¹so as to realize the ^afull assurance of ^bhope until the end, 12 so that you may not become dull, but ^aimitators of those who through ^bfaith and patience ^cinherit the promises.
13 For ^awhen God made the promise to Abraham, since He could swear by no one greater, He ^bswore by Himself, 14 saying, “^aI will greatly bless you and I will greatly multiply you.” 15 And so, ^ahaving patiently waited, he obtained the promise. 16 ^aFor men swear by ¹one greater than themselves, and with them ^ban oath given as confirmation is an end of every dispute. 17 ¹In the same way God, desiring even more to show to ^athe heirs of the promise ^bthe unchangeableness of His purpose, guaranteed it with an oath, 18 so that by two unchangeable things in which ^ait is impossible for God to lie, we who have taken refuge would have strong encouragement to take hold of ^bthe hope set before us. 19 ¹This ^ahope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and confirmed and one which ^benters ²within the veil, 20 ^awhere a forerunner has entered for us—Jesus, having become a ^bhigh priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.
