Hebrews 10:24-25

希伯来书 10:24-25

The Passage

Let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good works, not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as you see the Day approaching.

In the other language

又要彼此相顾,激发爱心,勉励行善。你们不可停止聚会,好像那些停止惯了的人,倒要彼此劝勉,既知道那日子临近,就更当如此。

Bring a question to this passage

Many readers arrive here from a real question. These are reflections for how this passage speaks to the questions people bring most often — not an answer about what will happen, but an invitation to sit with it slowly.

How do I face this season of pressure at work?

You are invited here to consider other people, not simply to endure by yourself. The passage speaks about gathering with fellow believers and encouraging one another toward love and good works. It does not prescribe a workplace strategy, but it challenges the isolation that pressure can deepen. When every task feels urgent, encouragement may seem like something you can postpone until life is easier. Here, it belongs to the shared life of faith, not merely to spare time. Receiving support is not an admission that you have failed, and offering it need not mean taking on everyone’s burden. Who could you meet with honestly rather than carrying this season alone?

Carry thisEncouragement belongs to shared faith, not merely to spare time.

I want to learn to love better in this relationship.

Love is something this passage asks you to consider, not merely something you hope to feel. The invitation is to pay attention to one another: what encourages love, what makes good action easier, what helps someone keep showing up. In your relationship, that might mean noticing effort rather than only mistakes, offering encouragement without trying to manage the other person, or making room for honest conversation. The passage speaks to a gathered community, so loving better need not be a private project carried by two people alone. How much of your attention in this relationship goes toward noticing and encouraging love and good works, rather than only noticing what needs to change?

Carry thisLove makes room for encouragement, attention, and shared effort.

What do I need to let go of in the coming weeks?

This passage turns your attention toward the people with whom you practice faith. It does not name what you should release in the coming weeks, but it does question the habit of withdrawing and invites thoughtful encouragement instead. Letting go might mean loosening the belief that you must manage everything alone, or the expectation that community should ask nothing of you. Gathering is not simply attendance here; it is making room to stir one another toward love and good works. You can consider this without ignoring your need for rest or healthy boundaries. How could you make room for mutual encouragement, knowing this passage does not name what you should release, but invites you to nurture love and good works together?

Carry thisFaith makes room for encouragement given and received.

How can I find stillness in a busy life?

Stillness can have room for other people. This passage does not directly explain how to quiet a busy life, but it asks you to consider how you give and receive encouragement. You need not turn that invitation into another task on an already crowded list. Gathering with others can be a place to stop carrying everything alone. Their presence may help you notice love beneath the noise of your day. You might pause with God and remember someone whose company helps you become less hurried and more attentive. This passage before you, how could time with that person become a place of rest rather than another obligation?

Carry thisUnhurried attention can be part of loving one another.

Hebrews 10 — in context

18Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

19Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,

20by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

21and having a great priest over God’s house,

22let’s draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having our body washed with pure water,

23let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.

24Let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good works,

25not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as you see the Day approaching.

26For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins,

27but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.

28A man who disregards Moses’ law dies without compassion on the word of two or three witnesses.

29How much worse punishment, do you think, will he be judged worthy of, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

30For we know him who said, “Vengeance belongs to me,” says the Lord, “I will repay.” Again, “The Lord will judge his people.”

31It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
