  4. Sacred Sunday with Char McCain~Hebrews Chapter 12/Don't Stop Believing!
Hebrews Chapter 12 Don't Stop Believing Christians have tons of
examples of faith, which means they shouldn't worry about little
stuff like being persecuted or killed.They just need to look to
Jesus and keep on running the race. After all, that's what he did.
He died on a cross (which was no picnic) and his followers should
be ready to follow in his footsteps if need be.Or just turn lemons
into lemonade. You know, look at this persecution as a learning
opportunity. Maybe this is God teaching you how to be a better
person?See, says the author, God is like a dad, which means
Christians are his children. Human parents have to lay down the law
for their kids every now and then. Even though their rules and
punishments seem harsh, parental units just do it because they love
you.It's the same with God. Maybe by going through all this
suffering, Christians will come out more faithful in the end.If God
didn't care, he'd just let people do whatever they want to. But he
does care, so he has to set limits.So, keep your head up, the
author continues. Don't be like Esau (from back in Genesis), who
turned his back on God just to get a decent meal.Basically, you
need to play the long game—don't give up on God just because you
get something good in the short term. If you play your cards right,
the rewards will be awesome.See, this isn't like way back in Exodus
when Moses went up to Mount Sinai and everyone was freaked out. The
people weren't even supposed to touch the mountain and even Moses
was pretty terrified to go up there.Back in those days, he says,
God's voice would shake the ground when he spoke. But soon, the
world and everything in it will be gone. There will just be
Christians, and they'll be chilling out in a heavenly city that's
totally earthquake proof.
