1 The writer says: Let us grow up in Jesus. Do not only stay at the start: turn from bad and trust God. ✝️ 2 Do not do the start list again: learn wash with water, put hands on people to bless, know the dead will live again, and know God will say what is fair at the end. ✋⚖️ 3 We will do this if God lets us. ➡️ 4 It is very hard to help people who saw God’s light, got His good gift, and shared in God’s Holy Spirit. ✨️ 5 They heard God’s good word and saw God’s power from the world to come. ⚡ 6 Then they turn away. It is very hard to help them turn back. They hurt Jesus again and make Him look bad. ↩️✝️ 7 Land drinks rain. It grows good food for people. God is glad and blesses it. ️ 8 But land with thorns is no good. It is near a curse and gets burned. 9 Dear friends, we think better things for you, things that go with Jesus saving you. 10 God will not forget your kind work. You loved His people, and you still help. ❤️ 11 We want each of you to keep trying. Keep your hope strong to the end. ⏳ 12 Do not be lazy. Copy people who trust God and wait. They get what God said. ♀️ 13 God made a strong promise to Abraham. God used His own name, the biggest name. ✨ 14 God said, I will bless you a lot. Your family will be many. 15 Abraham waited a long time. Then he got what God said. ⏳✅ 16 People use big promises to stop a fight. Then the talk can end. ️ 17 God wanted us to be very sure. So He also made a strong promise. 18 God does not lie. He gave two sure things. So we can feel safe. We run to God and hold hope. ♂️ 19 This hope is like a big boat anchor. It holds us strong. It goes in past the big curtain to God. ⚓⛵⛺ 20 Jesus went in first for us. He is our High Priest for all time, like Melchizedek. He helps us with God. ✝️
