Hebrews

1:1-3

In the Old Testament, God didn’t speak to everyone. When he did speak to people, God spoke in different ways. He spoke through dreams and also sent angels with messages. He gave people his laws. He also spoke through the prophets and sometimes through other people. Moses heard God’s voice in a burning bush. God spoke to Elijah in a gentle whisper.

3:12-15

Talky wonders if you have ever run out of time when you had to do something. Tell the people in your group what happened. Then talk about this.

Do you know how to finish a task in the time that you have been given?

We read here that we have to follow Jesus while there is still time. How can we make sure that we do not run out of time? Today, we must believe in Jesus as our Savior! And we must continue to believe in Jesus until the very end of time!

4:14-12:3

In the Old Testament, the high priest brought sacrifices before God every year. When he did this, the high priest asked God to forgive the sins of the Israelites.

Jesus is our High Priest. He also brought a sacrifice for our sin. Jesus gave his own life as the sacrifice for our sins. Unlike the high priest, Jesus only had to do it once. That is because his death on the cross took away our sin once and for all.

4:14-16

Hearty would like to know this. How do you feel when you have done something wrong or made a mistake?

How do other people react when this happens? Choose a color from Hearty’s color chart on page 19 that represents the look on their faces.

Jesus knows what it feels like to be a child. He knows how you feel when you make a mistake or do something wrong. Read verse 15. Choose a color from Hearty’s color chart that could represent the look on Jesus’ face. How do you feel knowing God looks at you with love and mercy? Then tell this good news to a friend who is feeling sad.

Verse 1 explains what faith is. It’s being sure of things that haven’t happened yet. And it’s being sure of things you can’t see. Faith is trusting God to speak the truth about these things.

The rest of the chapter tells us about people in the Old Testament who had faith. They trusted God and his word. Their faith was the most important thing to them. And they obeyed God in everything. Their faith encouraged them to do whatever God asked them to do.

The writer shares what a Christian has to do to live a godly life.
Here are some of them:

13:8

Greeny discovered that some types of chameleons have the ability to change color. They do this to blend into their surroundings when they feel threatened. They also do it when they are cold. But they mostly do it to show their mood.

When they are feeling aggressive or want to fight, they become darker in color. When they meet another chameleon that they want to take as their mate, this happens. They become lighter and more colorful.

People also change according to their feelings.

But Jesus is always the same. He never changes. He is always there and he loves us forever.
