1 Brothers and sisters, you are holy partners in a heavenly calling. So look carefully at Jesus, the apostle and chief priest about whom we make our declaration of faith. 2 Jesus is faithful to God, who appointed him, in the same way that Moses was faithful when he served in God's house. 3 Jesus deserves more praise than Moses in the same way that the builder of a house is praised more than the house. 4 After all, every house has a builder, but the builder of everything is God. 5 Moses was a faithful servant in God's household. He told [the people] what God would say in the future. 6 But Christ is a faithful son in charge of God's household. We are his household if we continue to have courage and to be proud of the confidence we have. 7 As the Holy Spirit says, |If you hear God speak today, don't be stubborn. 8 Don't be stubborn like those who rebelled and tested me in the desert. 9 That is where your ancestors tested me, Hebrews 3:1-9, God's Word Translation.
