Hebrews 13:15-19 Believer's Sacrifice & Obedience

Through him, then, let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which proclaim allegiance to his name. But don’t forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they watch on behalf of your souls, as those who will give account, that they may do this with joy, and not with groaning, for that would be unprofitable for you. Pray for us, for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live honorably in all things. I strongly urge you to do this, that I may be restored to you sooner. Here we have the vertical and horizontal life of the Christian shown in his fruits of the Spirit. It begins with continual sacrifice to God the Father, but sharing with your fellow man. It ends in prayer for thee called leaders so that we may live a life of good conscience before God.
