Hebrews 4:12 Context
10For he that is entred into his rest, hee also hath ceased from his owne works, as God did from his. 11Let vs labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of vnbeleefe. 12For the word of God is quicke and powerfull, and sharper then any two edged sword, pearcing euen to the diuiding asunder of soule and spirit, and of the ioynts and marrowe, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked, and opened vnto the eyes of him with whome wee haue to doe. 14Seeing then that wee haue a great high Priest, that is passed into the heauens, Iesus the Sonne of God, let vs hold fast our profession.
