This is what it says:
Therefore we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. For since the message declared by angels proved to be reliable, and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution, how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard, while God also bore witness by signs and wonders and various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.
I was particularly challenged to ensure that I keep reading God's word regularly, even when I don't feel like it, because it is in his word that I will learn more about him, be reminded of all that Jesus has done for me and continue on as one saved by him.
Other things people were struck by:
* We must pay closer attention. Just skimming passages without concentrating never does anything for me!
* The need to pay much closer attention to what we have heard.
* The nature of drifting - how it can happen without us noticing, when we lose focus. Challenged me as can see how easily this can happen.
* God's word always has something new to teach us - so keep reading it, daily.
* Very helpful sermon - the danger of drifting is real and relevant and therefore we must be vigilant.
* How to do daily bible reading? Prayerfully, obediently and persistently.
* I was struck by the ease with which we can drift, slowly and imperceptibly.
* Great reminder to never drift from God as he loves us so much.
* Struck when talking about the different soils how few people renounce God vs how many slowly drift away.
* A powerful warning. Thank you!
* Helpful reminder to prioritise spending much time and attention in God's word. God chose his Son to deliver his message to us!
* I learnt how to go about reading the Bible.
