Harter: A Cloud of Witnesses
University of Florida star quarterback Tim Tebow wore a reference to Hebrews 12 during his final home game this weekend. The reference to Hebrews 12:1-2 was etched in the eyeblack under Tim’s eyes, where it received much attention and no doubt sent many curious fans to their bibles to look up the reference. Elder Gus Harter, himself a fan of Florida football and of Tim Tebow, exposits the first few verses of Hebrews, bringing the “cloud of witnesses” to life for us. The witnesses are the heroes of faith described in Hebrews 11, and their lives bear witness that we, too can please God through the choices we make and the lives we live.
