Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 12:28

Hebrews 12:28 The Immovable Kingdom. Consider the immobility of the kingdom which we receive and the service which citizenship in this kingdom requires. I. The immovable character of the kingdom of God. Even a careless observer and superficial thinker will not fail to recognise, in the midst of all the shifting and changing scenes and events of nature and human life, a stable, ceaseless, unswerving principle, which ever emerges, and plainly controls all objects and all actions with resistless... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 12:28-29

Hebrews 12:28-29 The Religion of the Day. In every age of Christianity, since it was first preached, there has been what may be called a religion of the world, which so far imitates the one true religion as to deceive the unstable and unwary. The world does not oppose religion as such. It has in all ages acknowledged, in one sense or other, the Gospel of Christ, fastened on one or other of its characteristics, and professed to embody this in its practice; while, by neglecting the other parts... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Hebrews 12:1-29

Shall we turn now to Hebrews, chapter 12.Wherefore, seeing we are also compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses ( Hebrews 12:1 ),What this does not mean is that the Old Testament saints, which are spoken of in chapter 11, are sitting there in heaven watching the activities on the earth. It doesn't mean that they are just watching us to see how we are going to react and respond and we've got this big gallery up here of Old Testament saints. It does mean that their life of faith and... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Hebrews 12:1-29

Hebrews 12:1 . Wherefore, seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses. Confessors and martyrs of the ancient church are here supposed to be the spectators of our course, and we are here called upon to follow these veterans of the faith. Their number is such that they are said to be a cloud, like the assembled multitudes seen on special occasions to witness some extraordinary spectacle. Nor is it the celestial host only that are interested in this contest; we are... read more

Hebrews 12:25-29Refuse not Him that speakethThe voice of God in the vicissitudes of humanityI.THE VOICE OF GOD IS VARIOUSLY UTTERED IN DIFFERENT AGES OF THE WORLD. God speaks to rational beings on earth in two general ways1. Natural. Everything around and within us is a book; all these are materials of knowledge--the soul alone is the reader, the student, the philosopher, the interpreter; a world is spread out by God, impressed with principles and laws for man, that he may look through them to... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Hebrews 12:28

28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: Ver. 28. A kingdom which cannot be moved ] As the mighty monarchies of the world could; for those had their times and their turns, their ruin as well as their rise, so that now they live but by fame only.
