B29 In the three passages of Hebrews that we have looked at, there is mounting emphasis on the importance of maintaining a right confession. In Hebrews 3:1, we are simply told that Jesus is the “High Priest of our confession.” In Hebrews 4:14, we are exhorted to “hold fast our confession.” In Hebrews 10:23, we are exhorted to hold fast our confession “without wavering.” This increasing emphasis suggests that we are likely to be subjected to ever increasing pressures that would cause us to change or to weaken our confession. Many of us could testify that this is true in our experience. Therefore, the warning is timely. No matter what may be the pressures against us, victory comes only through firmly holding on to our confession.
