Discussion Questions
-
In this lecture we learned that Hebrews was written to people who were tempted to abandon their new faith in Christ. Have you ever been tempted to give up your faith in Christ? What helped sustain your faith at that time?
-
Yes, more than once. What sustained me was mostly the truth found in the Word of God plus a few faithful friends who stayed with me.
-
No.

Over the past few years I have had quite a few serious health problems that have affected my relationships with my family, friends, work, and, most of all, my faith. Surgeries and hospitalizations encompassed my months with no end and no answer in sight. I questioned God why he would put me through so much pain and why he couldn’t help my doctors find an answer. I turned away from my faith and fell into a hole. I ignored my family and friends, and lived my life questioning why. A friend of mine from high school sent me a message that was so simple but strong in faith and hope. She pulled me out of the hole and helped me find reason and clarification in my struggles. My faith, my relationships, and my work all rebounded and are stronger than ever. I believe Christ came to my friend and told her she needed to help me. Sometimes God speaks in a whisper… Thankfully I finally listened, and I am healthy and happy again.

When my father died in 2012 I found myself broken . And as I returned home from his homegoing service. I open his Bible and it was turned to 1 Corinthians 15:50-58. And in verse 50 it said flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. My father wrote in his own words above verse 50 , I’m going home another way. This not only comfort me , but it strengthen me. It plugged the hole in my heart and restored my hope. Because I have God’s promise in John 3:16. know this I know everything is going to be alright.

At unversity, I was tempted to give up my faith because of how my flatmates and classmates treated me. They made fun of me for not participating in immoral activities. I found a lovely church community that provided fellowship and community with like minded students.
