All right, good morning and welcome to our second service. We have two services on Sunday.

The first is our Bible prophecy update that we do weekly, and then second service now is our

sermon. It's actually a verse by verse study through the Word of God. We're currently going

through Hebrews and actually in the final chapter today, chapter 13 in our text will be verses 1 through

7. What I'll do is ask those of you that are here if you're able. If not, that's the right

where you're seated is fine. But if you want, you can stand. You can follow along as I read,

beginning in verse 1, Hebrews chapter 13. The writer of Hebrews by the Holy Spirit writes, verse 1,

keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters. Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers.

For by so doing, some people have shown hospitality to angels

without knowing it. Continue verse 3 to remember those in prison as if you were together

with them in prison and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves

were suffering. Marriage, verse 4, should be honored by all and the marriage bed kept pure,

for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.

Keep your lives, verse 5, free from the love of money, and be content with what you have because God has said, never will I leave you, never will I forsake you. So, verse six, we say with confidence, the Lord is my helper. I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?

Remember your leaders, verse 7, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome

of their way of life and imitate their faith.

I think that's pretty self-explanatory. You want to just close in prayer?

Well, let's pray. Father in heaven, I thank you so much for your word and for the privilege it is mine to teach.

But Lord, we desperately need for the Holy Spirit to be our teacher.

And our guide is you open up the eyes of our understanding because unless the Holy Spirit

does that, then our time together today and your word is going to be a waste of time.

And I don't think there's anyone here that wants that to happen.
