12. So, brothers and sisters, be careful that none of you has the evil thoughts that cause so much doubt that you stop following the living God.
13. But encourage each other every day, while you still have something called “today.” Help each other so that none of you will be fooled by sin and become too hard to change.
14. We have the honor of sharing in all that Christ has if we continue until the end to have the sure faith we had in the beginning.
15. That’s why the Spirit said, “If you hear God’s voice today, don’t be stubborn as in the past when you turned against God.” Psalm 95:7-8
16. Who were those who heard God’s voice and turned against him? It was all the people Moses led out of Egypt.
17. And who was God angry with for 40 years? He was angry with those who sinned. And their dead bodies were left in the desert.
18. And which people was God talking to when he promised that they would never enter his place of rest? He was talking to those who did not obey him.
19. So we see that they were not allowed to enter and have God’s rest, because they did not believe.
