- Genuine righteousness leads to life, but the pursuit of evil brings death. Proverbs 11:19
- But if a righteous man turns from his righteousness and practices iniquity, committing the same abominations as the wicked, will he live? None of the righteous acts he did will be remembered. Because of the unfaithfulness and sin he has committed, he will die. Ezekiel 18:24
- Today we need to take heed of history (Heb 3:7-19), many didn't believe and they died.
- An erring heart and disbelieving heart will also be a hard heart (Heb 3:12), therefore we encourage one another with God's truths (Heb 3:13).
