Lessons in Hebrews 13

There are several great principles we can learn by studying Hebrews 13.


One of the great counsels in this chapter is to remember those who are in prison or in other forms of bondage.  Since they are our brethren, we are to think of ourselves as bound with them.

Marriage is treated as honorable, and undefiled, and the only place for the full expression of love between a man and a woman.

In this chapter we are also warned against covetousness.  We should be content with what we have, because when we have the Atonement, we have all that we really need.  After all, our circumstances may change, but Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, today and forever.  It is through Jesus Christ and his Atoning blood that we are able to be sanctified.

We are also counseled in this chapter to obey our church leaders and submit ourselves to those who are accountable for our souls.  As we sustain our church leaders, we should also pray for them that they may continue to live in honesty and in good conscience.


What other counsel do you find in Hebrews 13?
