Scripture |
1 |
Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
|
2 |
Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
|
3 |
And this will we do, if God permit.
|
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.
|
7 |
For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God:
|
8 |
But that which beareth thorns and briers [is] rejected, and [is] nigh unto cursing; whose end [is] to be burned.
|
9 |
But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
|
10 |
For God [is] not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
|
11 |
And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:
|
12 |
That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
|
13 |
For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,
|
14 |
Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.
|
15 |
And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
|
16 |
For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation [is] to them an end of all strife.
|
17 |
Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed [it] by an oath:
|
18 |
That by two immutable things, in which [it was] impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:
|
19 |
Which [hope] we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;
|
20 |
Whither the forerunner is for us entered, [even] Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
