    The document discusses how to avoid drifting away from faith according to Hebrews 2:1. It says we must pay attention to what we have heard so as not to drift. It explains that whatever we focus our attention on we drift toward, so attention leads to affection which determines direction. It provides practical ways to pay attention such as establishing reference points like devotional time, prayer life, church attendance, and relationships. It also says we need a "referee" to point out when we drift out of bounds and must pray for discernment. The document ends by stating two principles: you can see what you are looking for, and the secret to not drifting is looking for your reference points to see if you've moved.

    www.christianarsenal.com DRIFTING Dr. Ken Culver Part 2 of 2 Hebrews 2:1 HOW TO KEEP FROM DRIFTING We must pay more attention therefore to what we have heard so that we do not drift away. Hebrews 2:1 IF WE ASKED THE WRITER OF HEBREWS WHAT WE NEEDED TO DO TO NOT DRIFT AWAY, HE WOULD SAY PAY ATTENTION. PRINCIPLE: WHAT YOU AND I FOCUS ON WE DRIFT TOWARD. Whatever you focus your attention on eventually you focus your affection on and what gets your affection ultimately determines your direction. SAY IT WITH ME: ATTENTION AFFECTION DIRECTION PRACTICAL WAYS TO PAY ATTENTION YOU NEED TO ESTABLISH SOME REFERENCE POINTS.

    Drifting starts with a thought, then an attitude, then it consumes your behavior. Examples of reference points: 1. Devotional time 2. Prayer life 3. Church attendance 4. Giving record 5. Relationship with spouse 6. Physical/spiritual exercise YOU NEED TO ESTABLISH A REFEREE.

    We need someone to blow the whistle and say, Youre out of bounds. Drifting always starts out privately and almost always ends up public. YOU MUST PRAY FOR DISCERNMENT.
