  2. Hebrews 11:4 “By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and through it he being dead still speaks.”

  3. Being Dead, Yet Speaks… Abel • God will respect only the right gift, given in the right way • “By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and through it he being dead still speaks.” (Hebrews 11:4)

  4. Being Dead, Yet Speaks… Enoch • God saved me from physical death because I pleased him • “By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, ‘and was not found, because God had taken him’; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God.” (Hebrews 11:5)

  5. Being Dead, Yet Speaks… Noah • I followed God’s command to build an ark, and saved my family • “By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.” (Hebrews 11:7)

  6. Being Dead, Yet Speaks… Abraham • You can trust God. I did implicitly, and God gave me Isaac • “By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.” (Hebrews 11:8)

  7. Being Dead, Yet Speaks… Moses • I chose God and his people over the temporal riches of Egypt • Hebrews 11:24-26

  8. Hebrews 11:24-26 “By faith Moses, when he became of age, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, 25choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin, 26esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt; for he looked to the reward.”

  9. Being Dead, Yet Speaks… Rahab • I was justified through my obedience to God • Hebrews 11:31; James 2:25-26

  10. Hebrews 11:31 “By faith the harlot Rahab did not perish with those who did not believe, when she had received the spies with peace.” “Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way? 26For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” (James 2:25-26)

  11. Conclusion These voices of faith should motivate each of us to faithfulness in our lives. Hebrews 12:1-2

  12. Hebrews 12:1-2 “Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
