Hebrews 13:5-15

5 Make sure that your character is 1free from the love of money, 2being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, "3I WILL NEVER * DESERT YOU, NOR WILL I EVER * FORSAKE YOU,"
6 so that we confidently say, "4THE LORD IS MY HELPER, I WILL NOT BE AFRAID. WHAT WILL MAN DO TO ME?"
7 Remember 5those who led you, who spoke 6the word of God to you; and considering the result of their conduct, 7imitate their faith.
8 8Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
9 9Do not be carried away by varied and strange teachings; for it is good for the heart to 10be strengthened by grace, not by 11foods, 12through which those who were so occupied were not benefited.
10 We have an altar 13from which those 14who serve the tabernacle have no right to eat.
11 For 15the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are burned outside the camp.
12 Therefore Jesus also, 16that He might sanctify the people 17through His own blood, suffered 18outside the gate.
13 So, let us go out to Him outside the camp, 19bearing His reproach.
14 For here 20we do not have a lasting city, but we are seeking 21the city which is to come.

God-pleasing Sacrifices

15 22Through Him then, let us continually * offer up a 23sacrifice of praise to God, that is, 24the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name.
