Christmas Means Listening to Jesus

Hebrews 1:1-4

Pastor Ray Lee

"In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe. 3 The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. 4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs."

Perseverance - The steady persistence in a course of action, a purpose, a state, etc., in spite of difficulties, obstacles, or discouragement.
