Hebrews 12:29 Our God is a consuming fire.

 

This is the last sentence of Chapter 12. It is the closing thought to the teaching of the book of Hebrews. Although Chapter 13 is the closing chapter, it serves more like an appendix to the book. Therefore, the closing thought to the teaching of Hebrews is “Our God is a consuming fire.” This truth definitely drives home the seriousness of all God had to say. Nothing we have learned should be taken lightly. This comes from

 

Deuteronomy 4:24 For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.

 

This communicates the intensity and power of what God says.
