Wake up each morning to hear truth&#39;s from God&#39;s word. Jesus said, &#34;Man cannot live on bread alone but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.&#34; This is Daily Truth.

The same God who determines which one of us will be justified also determines how far each of us will be sanctified in this life.

God Is Sovereign Over Both Justification & Sanctification

“Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord.” Hebrews 12:14“Holiness” is immediately added to “peace” in order to indicate that peace is to be pursued no further than that which is consistent with holiness.

“A lame member of the body of Christ, the church... a weak believer; one that is ready to halt, either through the corruption of nature, or through the weakness of grace, or through want of light and judgment, and through instability and inconstancy; lest such a one should, through the irregular walk and conversation of others, be stumbled and offended, and go out of the way, and leave the paths of righteousness and truth. God takes care of, and has a regard to such, and he would have others also. The fallen believer be restored, the weak brother be confirmed, the halting professor be strengthened, and everyone be built up and established upon the most holy faith, and in the pure ways of the Gospel.” -John Gill

There is a dynamic difference between a weak convert and a false convert. We must learn to discern between the two, and act accordingly.

Covenant Succession is the idea that the children of believers “are expected to succeed in the faith of their parents, and this is accomplished through the divinely ordained means of covenant nurture.” There is no theological reason Reformed Baptists shouldn’t believe this.

Faithful Baptists Should Expect All Their Children To Be Saved

Just as the Israelites were encompassed with the pillar of cloud in the wilderness, New Testament saints are also surrounded by a “cloud.” Only, this cloud which surrounds us is “a cloud of witnesses” - the Old Testament saints whose faith and patience were just mentioned in the preceding chapter. Remember, some of these Old Testament saints experienced immense victory, while others experienced crushing defeat. In either case, they all bore noble testimony to God and received commendation from God for their faith. And these Old Testament saints now serve as witnesses for, or against us, as we seek to live by faith. They are compared to a &#34;great” cloud because they encompass us on every side, and are many in number.

Although the daily sacrifice in Israel ought to have ceased at the death of Christ, it did not in fact cease until the destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem. Therefore, when considering the larger context of the preceding chapters (Hebrews 10 &amp; 11), what “weight” and corresponding “sin” would most likely be hindering these Christians ability to “run with endurance the race... set before [them]”? It was the weight of constant participation in the ceremonial system of Judaism, and the sin of unbelief in the finished atonement of Christ.

Scripture teaches that we are “surrounded by a great cloud which surrounds us is “a cloud of witnesses.” These past saints, now in glory, are not mere cheer leaders for Christians living today. They serve as witnesses for, or against us, as we seek to live by faith.

Has God always saved people the same way? Why does it seem that so few were saved in Israel in the Old Testament?
