Hebrews 2:1–4 – Why does all this matter?

1. Have you ever lost something precious to you that slipped away and was lost forever because of your neglect? How did you feel about it?
2. Hebrews 2:1 begins with a command. What is it? (Heb 3:1, 12:1-2, Prov 3:21)
   1. List some of the things in your life that you pay careful attention to. How does your attention to these things compare to the attention you pay to Jesus?
   2. How are you making provision to hear from Him when other things call for your attention?
   3. What are some good, godly sources that help you listen to and apply what you are taught from the Word?
3. How would you define the word ‘drift’?
   1. Do we ever stand still in regards to our relationship with Jesus?
   2. What are the dangers of neglecting this great salvation?
   3. If we continue to drift away, how are we guiltier than the Old Testament people who disobeyed the word given through angels?
4. Read Hebrews 1:2-4, verses declaring and celebrating God’s gift to the world in Jesus. Describe how Jesus is a greater revelation than the law and therefore requires a greater response from us.
   1. When have you recently acknowledged God before others?  (Matt 10:32)
   2. What gifts has Holy Spirit given you and how are you using them to serve others?
5. How has your relationship with God changed since the CREED series started?
