THE TRAGEDY OF NEGLECT.Hebrews 2:1-4 Drifting from the Word— (neglect) We Christians must guard against inattention and neglect of God’s message through His Son.We Christians must heed the things we have heard lest we slip away from them (v.1). To apply the mind tenaciously.To give total concentration to the Word of God.Reason 1: judgment under the law was strict (v.2). Reason 2: judgment under salvation is sure to be even more severe (v.3-4). Salvation is neglected because people don’t understand its greatness.with so many witnesses, no person can ever expect to escape the judgment of God if he neglects the salvation of Christ—not when the two primary witnesses are God Himself and the Lord Jesus Christ, God’s very own Son.
