Q. Hebrews 5:9 says ‘and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him.’ Is the word obey referring to all who believe in the Gospel or some other kind of obedience?

A. In the New Testament unbelief is sometimes equated with disobedience, and that’s the case in this passage. Regarding our salvation, passages like John 3:16, John 6:28-29, and John 6:40 make it clear that belief in the Son is what the Father requires of us.
