The pleasing sacrifice


After Hebrews 13:1-19
 

You want to make 

a sacrifice that’s pleasing?

Well, then, love your brother. 

Be hospitable to strangers.

Remember the prisoner

and the mistreated.

Honor marriage. Avoid

the love of money. Remember

those who lead you. And

obey them. Stick to the true.

Do good. Share what you

have. And pray, always.

That’s all you need to do.

No problem, right?

  1. It's all we need to do, and that is enough.
