“For in the case of those who have once been enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame.”
(Hebrews 6:4-6)
No God-fearing Christian should be able to read Hebrews 6:4-6 without a sense of trepidation and tremble. The words of Hebrews were written to Christians who had seen the apostles and had first-hand experience with the signs and wonders which testified to the Word of God. Their teachers were the prophets. If they could taste such things and then fall away from the Lord, certainly we are not immune to the dangers of spiritual drift!
Beware of the slow fall away from Jesus. We must be faithful until death, not just faithful until we become comfortable.
Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites
