Popular Bible Verses from Hebrews 5

People who have grown up eat proper food. In the same way, people who have been believers for a long time should understand more about God's message. They should have learned about what is good and about what is bad. They should know the difference between these.

After all this time as believers in Jesus, you ought to be teachers. Instead of that, you still need someone to teach you the first lessons about God's message. You have become like babies, who need milk instead of proper food. Anyone who still thinks like a baby does not yet understand God's message about what is right. It is as if they are still drinking only milk.

Jesus is God's Son, but it was necessary for him to suffer. In that way, he learned to obey God completely. As a result, Jesus became the person who can save everyone who obeys him. Because of Jesus, God forgives their sins for ever.

When Jesus Christ lived on earth as a man, he prayed to God. He asked God to help him. He prayed strongly and he cried loudly with many tears. He knew that God could save him from death. And God listened to Jesus when he prayed, because Jesus respected his authority.
