Anthony, sometime could you do a brief explanation of Hebrews 6:4-6? Who is the writer referring to? I am in a back and forth concerning this. I think this is written to unbelievers rejecting Christ and thereby losing their chance of salvation - they have heard and understood the Gospel, yet still reject Christ as Lord. Someone else thinks it is definitely written to believers, warning them to not lose the faith, or they may not be able to come back to repentance.
Don’t go back to the Sinai laws.
(Galatians). Christ ✝️Alone 🩸🕊️
As a former apostate and now a child of the living God; Jesus Christ is Lord and God of all.
"Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus is accursed”; and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit." (1 Corinthians 12:3)
"that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. For the Scripture says, “whoever believes in Him will not be disappointed.” (Romans 10:9-11)
"It is a trustworthy statement: For if we died with Him, we will also live with Him; If we endure, we will also reign with Him; If we deny Him, He also will deny us; If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself." (2 Timothy 11-13). If God is always faithful then that means that how people apostatise is through the hardening of their hearts to Him and therefore would mean the reason they can't be renewed to repentance is because of that. Which also makes sense when you read about Israel in the OT. God continually held out His hands to them even though they were continually committing idolatry; which in my opinion shows that the way in which they apostatised and couldn't be renewed to repentance was through the hardening of their hearts to our loving, gracious and merciful God.
Here's what Craig Keener believes on Hebrews 6:6:
"The point here is not that God does not accept the repentant, but that some hearts become too hard to consider repenting, because they refuse to acknowledge Christ, the only means of repentance. By willfully choosing the kind of belief that nailed Jesus to the cross, they accept responsibility again for killing him." -Keener, Craig S. 2014. The IVP Bible Background Commentary: New Testament.
God bless ♥.
Hebrews 6 4-6 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6[c]if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.)
Jews made countless sacrifices year after year for the people's ongoing sins...
The argument in Heb 6:4-6 is that Jesus only had to make one sacrifice and that sacrifice was sufficient for all sin forever...
So in this passage in Heb chapter 6 is setting up what is known as a reductio ad absurdum, basically taking an argument to its furthest conclusion in order to prove the initial premise false...
If the question at hand was whether someone could lose their salvation, the author of Hebrews is saying, Jesus can only be crucified once so if His sacrifice wasn't sufficient for all sins past present and future we cannot crucify Him again and again so anybody who sins would be without hope since no new sacrifice after His ascension into heaven could be offered ....
Of course, that does not logically follow so the idea that Christians can lose their salvation for sin does not logically follow...
Hebrews 10:14 ( For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that ( are ) sanctified. )
Hebrews 10:10 ( And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.)
yeah!!
