What Hebrews 6:10 means

Hebrews 6:10 says, “For our Father is not unjust—he won't forget your work and the love you've shown for his name, serving our Father's people, as you still do.” It is a promise to people who have kept serving, and it says that none of that service is lost.

It follows a hard warning. Verse 9 turns to encouragement: “But about you, beloved, we're convinced of better things—things tied to salvation—even though we speak this way.” Verse 10 gives the ground for that confidence, which is the character of our Father. He is not unjust, so he does not forget the work, and he does not forget the love shown for his name.

Verses 11-12 say what to do with that assurance: “We want each of you to show the same diligence for full assurance of hope until the end, so that you don't become lazy, but imitate those who inherit the promises through faith and patience.” The promise is meant to keep us going.
