58_HEB_06_01 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,
58_HEB_06_02 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
58_HEB_06_03 And this will we do, if God permit.
58_HEB_06_04 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,
58_HEB_06_05 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
58_HEB_06_06 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.
58_HEB_06_07 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:
58_HEB_06_08 But that which beareth thorns and briers [is] rejected, and [is] nigh unto cursing; whose end [is] to be burned.
58_HEB_06_09 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
58_HEB_06_10 For God [is] not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have showed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
58_HEB_06_11 And we desire that every one of you do show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:
58_HEB_06_12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
58_HEB_06_13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,
58_HEB_06_14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.
58_HEB_06_15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
58_HEB_06_16 For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation [is] to them an end of all strife.
58_HEB_06_17 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to show unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed [it] by an oath:
58_HEB_06_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:
58_HEB_06_19 Which [hope] we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;
58_HEB_06_20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, [even] Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
