Hebrew 6:1-12
Foundation are 1)repentance from acts that lead to death, 2)faith in God, 3)instruction about baptisms, 4)the laying on of hands the resurrection of the dead, 5)and eternal judgment.
It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tested the goodness of the word of God, if they fall away, to be brought back to repentance, because to their loss they are crucifying the Son of go all over again.
God will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.
Do not become lazy but diligence to the very end, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised.
The writer is frustrated in what he wants to say because of his hearers' lack of understanding. They have got stuck at the ABC level in their faith.
This lack of progress is bad enough in itself. But it is symptomatic(徵候的) of something much more serious. They are in anger of abandoning their faith altogether. So the writer gives his sternest warning. If despite all their Christian knowledge and experience, they willfully reject their faith, they will become Christ's enemies, effectively crucifying Jesus afresh. There will then be no hope for them, for they have refused the one available means of forgiveness. This is where their thinking is leading them, though they have not yet reached the point of no return.
Why?
Writer gives his sternesr warning, warning is quickly followed by encouragement.
One who have taste the goodness of word of God is really a Christian.
Do not become lazy but diligence to the very end, what we have done for the Lord will not be in vain.
How?
Do not become lazy but diligence to the very end!
