2. Read Hebrews 10:32-34a
How can identifying with persecuted Christians increase one’s chance of being persecuted? Why is it important to identify with and support our fellow Christians regardless of the risk? (Consider Hebrews 13:1-3; Matthew 25:35-40; 2nd Timothy 1:8, 16; 4:9, 13, 21)Take time to pray for persecuted Christians around the globe (1 of 7 Christians currently experience severe persecution for their faith).  

3. Read Hebrews 10:34b-36
How does the promise of eternal life in glory propel us through suffering in this life? (Consider Hebrews 11:10, 13-16; Matthew 5:10-12; 2nd Corinthians 4:17-18; 1st Corinthians 15:57-58)  

4. Read Hebrews 10:37-39
Is perseverance a necessary evidence of true faith? (Consider Hebrews 3:14; Philippians 1:6; 1st John 2:19; Matthew 24:13)

Pray for one another: That we would persevere through our sufferings as we look to God in faith.
 
Weekly Scripture Memory:
"In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints." (Ephesians 6:16-18)

1. Why is the subject of God’s judgment unpopular? Why is it vital for people to know the truth about God’s judgment?

2.  Read Hebrews 10:26-27
Can a genuine Christian lose his or her salvation? (Consider John 10:28-29, Romans 8:30, Philippians 1:6, Ephesians 1:13-14, Jude 24)
 
3. Read Hebrews 10:28-31
Is the judgment of God a subject that a professing Christian should leave behind? Why or why not? (Consider 1st Corinthians 5:11-13, Hebrews 13:4, Revelation 19:1-3)  

4. How does the cross of Jesus satisfy the wrath of God against our sins? (Consider Isaiah 53:5-6, Romans 3:22-26, 2nd Corinthians 5:21)  

Pray for one another: That we would hide from the wrath of God within the love of God.
