**Teachings from Hebrews 13:**
Jerry emphasizes practical applications for believers on how to serve the Lord and live a Christian life.
1. **Brotherly Love:**
- Begins in verse 1 with a command to love one another, highlighting that without love, believers can do nothing (1 Corinthians 13:1-3 NKJV).
2. **Specific Activities for Christians:**
- **Hospitality towards Strangers (Verse 2):** Previously covered by Pastor Martin.
- **Visit Prisoners (Verse 3):** Remember those suffering for Christ as if we are chained with them, reflecting on our own physical bodies and past persecutions (Hebrews 10:32-35 NKJV).
- **Minister to the Mistreated (Verse 3):** Ministry extends to persecuted Christians and beyond, following Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 25:34-40 NKJV.
3. **Honor Marriage (Verse 4):**
- Marriage is honorable and the bed undefiled; God will judge fornicators and adulterers (Genesis 1:27 NKJV, Genesis 2:24 NKJV, Ephesians 5:25-33 NKJV).
4. **Live a Holy Life and Abstain from Sexual Immorality (Verse 4):**
- Sexual immorality, including fornication and adultery, is condemned (Matthew 5:27-28 NKJV, 1 Corinthians 6:18 NKJV). Believers should strive for holiness and repentance (1 Corinthians 6:9-11 NKJV).
5. **Do Not Covet (Verse 5):**
- Believers should be content and not love money or possessions (Luke 12:13-15 NKJV, 1 Timothy 6:6-10 NKJV). Trust in God’s provision (Matthew 6:25-34 NKJV).
6. **God as Our Helper (Verse 6):**
- Trust in God’s help and fear no man, as nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:31-39 NKJV).

Jerry concludes with a call to remember these teachings and incorporate them into daily life, supporting one another in love and faith.
