Hebrews 2:1 Therefore we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away.
The writer of the book of Hebrews has just finished explaining that Jesus Christ is greater than the angels and if it was important to listen to them, how much more important it is to listen to Jesus Christ. And he is emphasizing the point that it is important to give earnest heed. That means to pay close attention with a lot of effort on our part. The danger is that if we don't pay close attention we may drift away. It's like being in a boat and just drifting along with the current without paying any attention as to where we are going. It is likely we will be in a place where we don't want to be.
So let's pay attention to all that Jesus Christ has said and prevent that drifting to which we are all vulnerable.
