Looking Unto Jesus

John continues discussing the book of Hebrews with Jordan Thomas this week. You may recognize Jordan as a contributor to the studies Behold Your God: Rethinking God Biblically and Behold Your God: The Weight of Majesty.

Taking their cues from Hebrews 12, John and Jordan discuss how we are to live our lives looking unto Jesus.

(If you missed last week’s episode, you can listen here.)

“Therefore, since we also have such a great cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let’s rid ourselves of every obstacle and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking only at Jesus, the originator and perfecter of the faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider Him” (Hebrews 12:1-3a).

What does it mean to look upon or fix your eyes? What does it look like? The Greek word actually has a double meaning, It means both look off, look away from everything else, and look on Jesus.

We hope this is an encouragement to you to fill the moments of your day with Christ.
