본문의 중심내용

고의적인 범죄로 배도하는 자에게 임할 무서운 심판을 경고한 후, 믿음으로 승리해온 삶을 상기시키면서 끝까지 뒤로 물러서지 말고 인내하라고 촉구합니다.

[ 히브리서 10:26 - 10:39 ] (찬송384장)

깨끗하고 온전한 마음으로 하나님께 나아가야 하는 이유(1) 

26우리가 진리를 아는 지식을 받은 후 짐짓 죄를 범한즉 다시 속죄하는 제사가 없고 27오직 무서운 마음으로 심판을 기다리는 것과 대적하는 자를 태울 맹렬한 불만 있으리라

 깨끗하고 온전한 마음으로 하나님께 나아가야 하는 이유(2) 

 28모세의 법을 폐한 자도 두세 증인으로 말미암아 불쌍히 여김을 받지 못하고 죽었거든 29하물며 하나님의 아들을 짓밟고 자기를 거룩하게 한 언약의 피를 부정한 것으로 여기고 은혜의 성령을 욕되게 하는 자가 당연히 받을 형벌은 얼마나 더 무겁겠느냐 너희는 생각하라

 깨끗하고 온전한 마음으로 하나님께 나아가야 하는 이유(3) 

 30원수 갚는 것이 내게 있으니 내가 갚으리라 하시고 또 다시 주께서 그의 백성을 심판하리라 말씀하신 것을 우리가 아노니 31살아 계신 하나님의 손에 빠져 들어가는 것이 무서울진저

 고난의 큰 싸움에 참은 것을 기억하라 

 32전날에 너희가 빛을 받은 후에 고난의 큰 싸움을 견디어 낸 것을 생각하라 33혹은 비방과 환난으로써 사람에게 구경거리가 되고 혹은 이런 형편에 있는 자들과 사귀는 자가 되었으니 34너희가 갇힌 자를 동정하고 너희 소유를 빼앗기는 것도 기쁘게 당한 것은 더 낫고 영구한 소유가 있는 줄 앎이라

 담대하게 믿음으로 인내하라 

 35그러므로 너희 담대함을 버리지 말라 이것이 큰 상을 얻게 하느니라 36너희에게 인내가 필요함은 너희가 하나님의 뜻을 행한 후에 약속하신 것을 받기 위함이라 37잠시 잠깐 후면 오실 이가 오시리니 지체하지 아니하시리라 38나의 의인은 믿음으로 말미암아 살리라 또한 뒤로 물러가면 내 마음이 그를 기뻐하지 아니하리라 하셨느니라 39우리는 뒤로 물러가 멸망할 자가 아니요 오직 영혼을 구원함에 이르는 믿음을 가진 자니라

[ Hebrews 10:26 - 10:39 ]

26For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,27 but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries.28 Anyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy on the evidence of two or three witnesses.29 How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one who has trampled underfoot the Son of God, and has profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has outraged the Spirit of grace?30 For we know him who said, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay.” And again, “The Lord will judge his people.”31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.32 But recall the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings,33 sometimes being publicly exposed to reproach and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated.34 For you had compassion on those in prison, and you joyfully accepted the plundering of your property, since you knew that you yourselves had a better possession and an abiding one.35 Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.36 For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised.37 For, “Yet a little while, and the coming one will come and will not delay;38 but my righteous one shall live by faith, and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.”39 But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls. 

Who is God like?

Thinking & Understanding

The writer of Hebrews urges believers to keep their faith by warning against apostasy. First, if even those who broke Moses’ law were put to death, it is safe to assume that apostasy that rejects and mocks the Son of God, his blood and the Holy Spirit will be punished even more severely. Second, God declared that he would regard anyone who renounced their faith as his enemy and repay them accordingly even if they were his people (vv. 26-31). The writer reminds his readers of their former days when they kept their faith and the rewards they will receive and encourages them to patiently continue to keep their faith (vv. 32-39). 

Who is God?

Vv. 37-39 God will come in ‘a little while’ without ‘delay’ and will give life to those who keep their faith. That God will not delay means that there is an appointed time and ‘a little while’ means that this time of suffering will be shorter than the time of glory (Rom. 8:18; 2 Cor. 4:17). Jesus will not put our faith to shame and will not let our patience go to waste. 

What lesson is God teaching me?

Vv. 32-35 To keep one’s faith is to endure suffering. In order to do this, we must keep our eyes on God’s promise and help one another through suffering. How are you and your church community enduring suffering? 

Prayer

Lord, help me to endure by faith without retreating backwards until the day of your return.
