Hebrews
Chapter 3

Therefore, brothers and sisters, holy partners in a heavenly calling, consider that Jesus the Apostle and high priest or our confession, was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in all God's house. Yet Jesus is worthy of more glory than Moses, just as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself.

(For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God).

Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testifly to the things that would be spoken later. Christ, however, was faithful over God's son, and we are his house if we hold firm the confidence and pride that belong to hope.

Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, Today if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,
as on they day of testing in the wilderness,
 where your ancestors put me to the test,
though they had seen my works for forty years,
therefore I was angry with that generation,
and I said, they always go astray in their hearts,
and they have not known my ways.

As in my anger, I swore, they will not enter my rest, Take care, brothers and sisters, that none of you may have an evil, unbelieving  heart that turns away from the living God. But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called, "today" so that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. For we have become partners of Christ, if only we hold our first confidence firm to the end. As it is said,

"Today if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion."

Now who were they who heard and yet were rebellious? Was it not all those who left Egypt under the leadership of Moses? But with whom was he angry forty years? Was it not those sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest? if not to those who were disobedient? So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.


I see another wonderful passage filled with beautiful things.
I love how the writer emphasize, "If you hear his voice harden not your hearts"

Your pastor or your Bishop, or Elder may preach the gospels and stir up the inner man but God is going to do the work. He is the builder of all things he is going to use them and others to build us or to make us. This passage says God speaks to us. (If you hear his voice.)

"We are under construction"  


Who is going to speak to us? JESUS
What will he say? WORDS to aid us. I am not sure what he say to you, its individual.

If we obey we can be better but it says don't be like those in the wilderness who did not believe.
Who did not obey the voice of God.
It was the fact they would not listen. Or they heard but they refuse to listen and do whatever he said.

He knows us and he is helping us to be what he desires (the image of his son).  Just like in Genesis God made man in his image. He made us in his image. We will have power and authority over things and much more.



BUILDING MEN AND WOMEN
GOD SPECIALIZES IN CREATING GOOD THINGS
LIKE A GOOD BUILDER HE STARTS WITH THE FOUNDATION
SOMETIMES HE HAS GUT IT ALL OUT. 
THEN HE BEGIN TO PUT THE WALLS UP.
WE ARE WORKMANSHIP CREATED UNTO GOOD WORKS.
