By his will we have been made holy through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

But we are not among those who shrink back and thus perish, but are among those who have faith and preserve their souls.

For we had good news proclaimed to us just as they did. But the message they heard did them no good, since they did not join in with those who heard it in faith.

But Christ is faithful as a son over God’s house. We are of his house, if in fact we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope we take pride in.
