A book was recently written just a just a year ago, called The Confidence, gained The Confidence Game was written by an author by the name of Maria.
Konnikova, and she is a russian-american psychologist.
And she wrote this book based on the fact that there are con artists that have their way based on winning a person's Trust.
Winning a person's trust and they win a person's trust.
And when they win their trust, they seek to Swindle them from their riches.
She wanted to study the psychology of why do humans get the seeds so easily in for you that my say that would never happen to me.
You seen it on the television with someone signs, their life savings away and you may say that would never happen to me.
But this is what she said about human nature.
She says that one of the reasons why these con artists is so successful is that when humans have a belief?
That conflicted with reality.
We as humans would rather change the facts to match your beliefs rather than Ultra beliefs to match the facts.
But sometimes it is so stressful to us.
When we see reality not matching our own set of beliefs that we can handle it.
And as a result, we want to change reality to match your own beliefs.
Some of you may say, well I would never be so naive.
But is it possible that the enemy of our souls have has played a confidence game with in out only?
Where he's asking us to have confidence in something that is not reliable.
Something that is not trustworthy to put out confidence in the wrong place.
And as a result Swindle us from The Riches of God's grace and the riches of God's mercy that he has prepared for us.
Could it be that we do that in our own lives?
When it comes to godswood?
Where we see the facts of God's word face-to-face, and instead of changing our own beliefs and our own desires.
We want to change the facts of God's word to match our own beliefs, in a sense, transforming God into our own image because we can't handle the stress of reality.
It may happen when your instant we may get fired.
And we say Lord it wasn't because I'm lazy.
It was because my boss is demanding.
Or it may happen.
When someone does something nice to have someone that we don't really like.
They do something towards us.
That is kind and generous.
But I'll beliefs make us a know that person was generous that person was crying because they want something from me.
We changed the idea of what reality brings and this is what is happening in the book of Hebrews in a sense.
So I bought you this morning to turn your Bibles to the book of Hebrews chapter 10, and after you turn your Bibles there.
I just want to give a bit of a context to the situation that Paul is facing here traditionally is believe that Paul wrote the book of Hebrews and he his writing a letter to both Jews and Gentiles.
And in this letter.
He's riding to a house church.
Mostly probably located near room or in room and this group is under persecution because of their faith.
How many of you know?
But when you take god, seriously, you're going to face persecution.
When you take god, seriously, you may come under criticism.
When you take that, seriously things may not be comfortable.
But how many of you also know that God is not so much concerned about our comfort?
Then I'll character.
The door is not so much concerned about our happiness as such, but a Holiness.
Amen.
That is, what is priority to God.
And so, Paul is writing to a church.
That is the storage.
Did the storage because of persecution, and they discouraged.
And as a result of that, pull realizes, they're drifting away.
From what real Christianity is all about, and he write this letter in this context, and he says to them, that you're about to throw your confidence away.
In chapter 1, he establishes who Jesus is and he says, Jesus is the greater than the Angels.
Jesus is the great high priest.
Jesus is the great one, because he ministers in the century who Jesus is greater than any Old Testament sacrifice.
He's the great Lamb of God, and he's the expression of the love of God.
He says, my son is greater.
How many can testify this morning that we serve a god?
That is greater.
We serve a god that is greater than anything.
You can drink, we serve a god that is greater than anything.
You can inhale, we serve a god that is greater than any relationship.
You can have we serve a god that is greater than any position.
You can attain we serve a god that is greater than any of your sin and we serve a god that is greater than any of your weaknesses.
Amen.
We serve a god that is great.
I anytime this Foundation That Paul is setting the scene for a group of just a small unit, small house of Christians.
That is about to throw the confidence away.
And I believe that pool highlights at least three things that can cause us as Christians, when we're on the trials and persecution.
When we're under a challenge three things that can cause us to throw our confidence away and within those three same things.
He also illustrates how we can keep our confidence.
Turn your Bibles with me to Hebrews 10:34.
And let's look at the first thing that post that to you.
Hebrews 10:34, he says, it is who you showed sympathy to the prisoners and accept the joyfully, the seizure of your property knowing that you have for yourself a better position and a lasting one.
Notice.
He uses the past tense key.
You showed sympathy to the prisoners.
It's almost like Paul is like a parent's.
You do this young group of Christians, and he's saying I know who you really are going to need someone to sometimes, tell you who you really are.
When you're acting crazy who you really are.
When you kind of lost your temper, who you really are, when things just go out of control.
And now you're not being yourself.
I know that I had a mother.
That did that She just kind of kind of set me straight when I was wasn't thinking straight and I would lose my confidence and she'd say, Joseph, if you can do it.
Nobody.
Can I would be.
Is that the thing you pray to God for mothers like that, that just believe in their children.
If you can't do it.
No one can.
And because doing it, you can do it, too, because other people are accomplishing that you can accomplish it as well.
He a tall is saying.
I know what you're really like.
I know what you're really, like the sympathy that you sure to prison as and when your property was taken, you accepted it.
Joyfully.
How many if you would be joyful if your stuff was taken?
How many of you would be?
Joyful?
If something that you worked really hard for was just taken away from you? Would you be joyful?
Getting quiet in here.
Paul, I believe illustrate something that allow this church to have their confidence in the first place, but now they're about to throw it away.
He's illustrating, something very significant and we need to listen here.
