Hebrews 3:1-6 Move Over Moses
The author of Hebrews has shown that the Son of Man is equal to God; then he demonstrated the superiority of the Son of Man over the angels and identified the Messiah with God. Now in this passage he shows that the Messiah, Jesus, is greater than the highly acclaimed Moses.
Acts 15:1-35 Rebellion Toward God?
When the Pharisees tried to attach conditions (merit) required for salvation they were roundly rebuked, and even showed to be in rebellion toward God. A warning for those today who try to sell a merit-based salvation.
Titus 2:11-14 Training Generates Righteous Conduct

Hebrews 2:14-18 A Merciful & Faithful High Priest

Acts 13:44-52 The Apostle Paul is Cancelled!

But when Paul and Barnabas leave, they leave a bunch of embryonic Christians, God wins!
Titus 1:10-16 Insubordinate Empty Teachers and Deceivers
Paul cautions Titus about False Teachers on the island of Crete. He describes their pride and the shame of their method in leading people astray from the truth. He instructs Titus to cut them no slack, “rebuke them sharply.” This should still be done today with false teachers in the church.
