  9. Gripping SCRIPTURE 35  So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. Hebrews 10:35 – 11:6

  10. Gripping SCRIPTURE 36  You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. Hebrews 10:35 – 11:6

  11. Gripping SCRIPTURE 37  For in just a very little while, "He who is coming will come and will not delay. Hebrews 10:35 – 11:6

  12. Gripping SCRIPTURE 38  But my righteous one will live by faith. And if he shrinks back, I will not be pleased with him.“ Hebrews 10:35 – 11:6

  13. Gripping SCRIPTURE 39  But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved. Hebrews 10:35 – 11:6

  14. Gripping SCRIPTURE 1  Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. 2  This is what the ancients were commended for. Hebrews 10:35 – 11:6

  15. Gripping SCRIPTURE 3  By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. Hebrews 10:35 – 11:6

  16. Gripping SCRIPTURE 4  By faith Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain did. By faith he was commended as a righteous man, when God spoke well of his offerings. And by faith he still speaks, even though he is dead. Hebrews 10:35 – 11:6

  17. Gripping SCRIPTURE 5  By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death; he could not be found, because God had taken him away. For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. Hebrews 10:35 – 11:6

  18. Gripping SCRIPTURE 6  And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. Hebrews 10:35 – 11:6
