The theme for the Spring 2011 Bible conference in Phoenix is found both at the beginning and end of the book (1Ti 1:18, 1Ti 6:12). In each reference, different words and phrases are used. In the first, Paul speaks of the good fight of faith as an ongoing campaign, thus reminding us that we are part of a vast and great spiritual army. In the last, his words focus on our own personal struggle, a good reminder that no one can fight our battle for us. This scope and intensity will be captured as we follow Paul’s thought through the book.

Worship of God is spiritual hunger for His Word. If you don't see God's Hand in your life then your faith is lacking (Heb 11:1, 6). "Rogue's Gallery" in Hebrews Chapter 11 -- O.T. believers exercising faith -- "out of weakness were made strong (Heb 11:32-34, 2 Cor 12). We need to run our race with endurance (Heb 12:1). We are the Joy Jesus had on the cross (Heb 12:2). Our greatest sin is doubt (Heb 12:1-2, Heb 11:6). Are you being trained by His discipline (Heb 12:5-11)? To those around us, we can either be a wellspring of living water or a defiler by bitterness (Heb 12:14-15). We have a birthright (Gal 3:29, Gal 4:6-7) but can trade eternity for time like Esau (Heb 12:16-17).
