Hebrews 6:12-16

12so that you may not be sluggish, but aimitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

The Certainty of God’s Promise

13For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he had no one greater by whom to swear, bhe swore by himself, 14saying, cSurely I will bless you and multiply you.” 15And thus Abraham,
Greek he
ehaving patiently waited, obtained the promise.
16For people swear by something greater than themselves, and in all their disputes fan oath is final for confirmation.
