Lesson 10: Letters to Friends
The next 12 books of the New Testament are also letters. Some are written by Paul to specific friends in the church and some are written by other leaders in the early church. The book of Hebrews is written to the Jews who had become believers in Jesus. Even though we don’t know for sure who wrote this letter, we find some very powerful and encouraging words for all believers in Hebrews chapter 11 and 12. These passages remind us that all through history, people have believed in God even when life was hard because of the great promise of eternal life.
