Closing words from the writer of Hebrews...
Hebrews 13:1 Keep on loving each other as brothers and sisters.
2 Don't forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!
3 Remember those in prison, as if you were there yourself. Remember also those being mistreated, as if you felt their pain in your own bodies.
4 Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage. God will surely judge people who are immoral and those who commit adultery.
5 Don't love money; be satisfied with what you have. (dan note: anybody out there satisfied with what they have?)
For God has said,
"I will never fail you.
I will never abandon you." (dan note: this is my life verse)
6 So we can say with confidence,
"The LORD is my helper,
so I will have no fear.
What can mere people do to me?"*
7 Remember your leaders who taught you the word of God. Think of all the good that has come from their lives, and follow the example of their faith.
8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
9 So do not be attracted by strange, new ideas. (dan note: in my 61 yrs, I've seen a LOT of strange, new ideas that have come & gone.)
Your strength comes from God's grace, not from rules about food, which don't help those who follow them.
Just sayin'...
