“…it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 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.” (Hebrews 6:4-6)
Michiah-Imla,
Notice that your obvious obsession with that one set of verses in Hebrews is controlling you?
That happens to a lot of religious people.......you are not the first.
Notice carefully, that your verse says...>"to renew them to repentance".
That would be the word of God preached, and the Holy Spirit, conviction power.
See that? That is "you are not saved yet, so repent of your unbelief and receive Jesus".
Now here is the thing...
If you are born again, unlike those Hebrews.....> you dont have to be brought back to repentance so that you believe to be saved, as you are already Born again.
See that?
Those people in the verse, those Christ Rejecting JEWS, never repented of their unbelief, and God is dealing with them about it, HOLY SPIRIT CONVICTION, and they are RESISTING....and Paul says......God wont keep doing this, you better HEAR ME and BELIEVE, as if you dont, you are going to cross a line where you can't be brought back to this place where the conviction of the Holy Spirit, is able to lead you to Faith in your Messiah.
This happens today, in churches, world wide.
You have someone like me, or a pastor, who is giving an alter call, and the Holy Spirit is "drawing all people if i be lifted up"....Jesus said, and you have those that for years kept resisting that call to Salvation, and then one day, they can't hear it anymore.
The Holy Spirit can't reach them anymore as they are HARDENED against "repentance" and can't ever be saved.
There are a lot of these people in Church every Sunday, or whenever it has the doors open.
