Overview

In the second half of his letter to the Hebrews, Paul emphasized the importance of faith in Jesus Christ. He cited numerous scriptural examples of individuals who acted with faith in Christ and were blessed. He also taught about the character of God, referring to God as “a rewarder of them that diligently seek him” (Hebrews 11:6) and as “the Father of spirits” (Hebrews 12:9). He encouraged us to “despise not … the chastening of the Lord, … for whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth” (Hebrews 12:5–6).
