God’s Glorious Oath (Hebrews 6:13-20)

/ Belgrade United Reformed Church/

When we take an oath we take the oath in the Lord's name. The reason for this is because we need a judge who can peer into the heart. The judge knows what is right and wrong and the judge will ultimately administer justice. Now, as Christians we know that we are to be people of our word as we live our lives before the face of God. However, Hebrews reminds us that the Lord swears by himself because there is no one greater to enforce the oath. So we consider the nature of the oath and the promise that God has made and fulfilled giving us an anchor for our souls.
