DON'T DRIFT!
Hebrews 2:1–4 sounds an urgent warning to every person who has heard the good news of Jesus Christ:
“Therefore we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away.”
Drifting doesn't usually happen all at once. A boat doesn't have to turn around and head in the opposite direction to become dangerously far from shore. Sometimes it simply stops holding its course.
The same can happen spiritually.
We can become distracted.
We can become careless.
We can neglect the salvation God has so graciously provided.
And Hebrews asks the sobering question:
“How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation?”
God has not left us without witness. He has spoken through His Son, confirmed His message, and given testimony through His mighty works and the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
So today, let's pay attention, hold fast, and refuse to drift.
You don't have to turn away to drift away.
Hebrews 2:1–4
