The closer we get to the end of the age, the more we should expect to hear Heaven-sent messages which spotlight the great need for Christians to persevere in the faith. God the Spirit will be leading messengers to call the Church to press in closer to the King as the culture moves farther away from Him at a rapidly increasing rate. The writer of Hebrews sent a message to people in the first century who were being tempted to turn back from their current levels of belief in Jesus as Messiah. Some of these people were truly born again. Some of these people believed with their minds but had never fully surrendered to Him in their hearts. The writer recognized that the external pressures from the culture and the internal uncertainties in their individual hearts posed a real threat to their souls. Today's Christian must recognize that a verifying mark of authentic faith is that we will endure unto the end with a committed faith in Jesus. God's grace makes that endurance our reality, but it never happens without our ongoing cooperation. We must continually press in or it is certain that we will be drawn back into something other than the lordship of Jesus Christ. This message reveals four calls to us from God that reveal to us what it looks like to press in unto the end.
