Amen Me!
Harden Not Your Hearts
Hebrews 3:16-19
16 For some when they heard, provoked him to
anger: howbeit, not all that came out of Egypt by
Moses.
17 But with whom was he displeased forty years?
Was he not displeased with them that sinned, whose
carcasses fell in the wilderness?
18 And to whom swear he that they should not enter
into his rest, but unto them that obeyed not?
19 So we see that they could not enter in, because
of unbelief.

Editor’s thought - As Paul the Evangelist had written we know that the Old Testament was a shadow image, as it were, of what was to come, the Gospel and New Testament. Now this image was a reflection similar to that of a mirror, wherein what we is real, yet only on a two dimensional plane. There is substance, but it is not something we can reach out and touch. However, the New Testament is, as they say “the real deal”. It is our spiritual food from our Creator. Hence when Paul speaks of being unable to enter into the promised land, so too, did he say, that if we chose to not believe, and harden our hearts, through non-belief, neither will one enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
