Hebr 6:4 For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit,
Hebr 6:5 and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come,
Hebr 6:6 and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt.
I think yes.
I disagree.
Why?
Heb. 6:
[4] For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened,
and have tasted of the heavenly gift,
and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
[5] And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
[6] If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
Enlightened…Heard the Truth
Tasted…Had the Truth in their Mouth
Tasted…Believ-ED the Truth in their Mouth.
Holy Ghost…WITH Them.
Holy Ghost… Blessing Them.
Fell Away…Rejected the Truth.
Fell Away… Spit the Truth out of Their mouth.
Fell Away… Stopped Believing
Having the Truth, Then Rejecting the Truth…
IS a Shame Reflection Upon God.
Man no longer WITH God.
God no longer WITH that man.
I disagree..
* Being enlightened, is steps to Learning About God.
* Tasting, is experiencing, Gods Truth, Results, Blessings, Being WITH God, and God WITH the man.
* Falling Away, Is Falling Away from what they Were Given… Faith.
* Thus… Falling From Faith…
* Not fallen From / Salvation.
When they Fell from Faith…
By default They Jeopardized, THEIR, Bought, paid for, offered Gift of Salvation…
* Which REQUIRES a mans living Body TO HAVE FAITH, before it Dies…
And Receive it’s Gift Of SALVATION AFTER, the man’s Body Dies.
scripture teaches …
“Taste” the Word of God….God shall Be WITH you.
Spit out…God shall Leave you.
“EAT” the Word of God…God shall Be
WITH you, and IN you, and NEVER Leave you.
We are saved, but have to endure, till the end.
Disagree…
The Sav-ED… Are Already… Bodily Dead….
They WHO are NOT bodily dead, NOT Saved, wHO have Faith, WHO do NOT fall from Faith…(enduring)…
SHALL BE Saved, when “THEIR” body dies.
Why Is THAT…(taking a chance)?
Because humans constantly have HIGHER Powers ( Not with or In God ) Influencing them…(demons, governments, parents, friends, celebrities, teachers, employers, internet, etc.)
And taking that chance is called “Hoping”.
Not secure assuredness.
Tasting…Believing, Have Faith, With God…is Not Saved…it is hoping, your are Not influenced / under pressure to Fall Away from Faith.
Sav-ED is With and IN God…
And God WITH and IN the person…
Having Gods Power in you…
And what Power is Greater than Gods,
That could, make you Consider or Ever Reject God?
Zero.
Glory to God,
Taken
