Are you a Greek scholar? I am. It says metachous - went along with. They had gone along with Him, but not receive Him.
Well, if you think highly of yourself as a Greek scholar rather than wisdom from the Lord, I am sure you will refuse to see the truth in His words.
Let's begin with what this subject is about in that chapter.
Hebrews 6:1
Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation ......
So whenever a saved believer falls away, there is no need to lay that foundation again because it has not been removed by that falling away. It cannot be about what you are suggesting when they are addressing saved believers not needing to go through the motion again if they fell away from teh faith or into living in sin.
you highlight the wrong verse. So you believe that a backslider cannot ever come back?
Actually, by affirming that the foundation received which can never be removed... is OSAS. Any backslider can come back, but it is best if they come back sooner rather than later because the Bridegroom can come at any moment, and if the saved believer be found in iniquity still when He comes, he runs the risk of being left behind, unless he looks to Jesus for help to depart from iniquity before the pre trib rapture event.
They were quite clearly NOT saved. They crucify Him again because He had already been crucified.
If the point of receiving His one time sacrifice for sins by believing in Him in order to be saved, then they cannot crucify Him again if they "fell away" to "renew themselves". The foundation is still there. They just need His help to depart from iniquity.
Repentance is not salvation, it is a preliminary stage.
Repentance required for salvation is the repenting from unbelief by believing in Him. That is the only call to repent for salvation. It is hardly a preliminary stage before salvation when a sinner is a slave to sin that he needs Jesus in him to deliver him from the bondage to sin & t death... hence now having received Him, he has power to live as sons of God by running that race by faith in Jesus Christ to help him lay aside every weight & sin in following the Good Shepherd by faith.
there are two types of land, barren and fruitful. (unsaved and saved). the good land produces fruit.
Actually, in real life, the land can produce both. Just as on that foundation, both the wood, stubble, and hay can be found with the gold, silver, and gems. To "go on to perfection" requires us to lean on Jesus Christ in hope all the time in being our Good Shepherd to help us depart from iniquity in our walk with Him in this valley of death.
you are mixing up Scriptures.
They apply and line up together speaking on the same subject about that foundation.
But it does. Good land (the saved) always produces fruit.
No good land is without weeds and briers in this life. That is why saved believers are called to run that race by looking to the author & finisher of our faith to help them lay aside every weight & sin in following Him to abide in Him & His words.
It is not funny on my end how you left out Hebrews 6:1 regarding the topic of a saved believer about not laying that foundation again should they what? Fall away.
Yep. But yet... you are saying he was never saved in how you read that portion of scripture that left out verse 1.
trouble is Heb 6 doesn't say that. It does not mention falling away from faith, nor believing.
If you take it from verse 1, it is ....
which is why salvation, once received, is secure.
Right. No saved believer after having fallen away, need not lay that foundation again because that foundation is still there. It is only the briers & the thorns that needs to be done away with by leaning on Jesus Christ for help to depart from iniquity.
but in 1 Cor 3 they are still saved. it is talking about a different thing.
No. It is the same topic because they are referring to in Hebrews 6:1 about that foundation laid.. to go on to perfection.. not laying that foundation again... for that is impossible. No one can crucify Jesus Christ again.
but life IS given, Guess who is wrong? and careless in interpretation
Leaving out Hebrews 6:1 is the error on your part in application.
where does it say they were believers? You assume what you are supposed to be proving
Hebrews 6:1 and onward.
But they CANNOT renew themselves again unto repentance
So what are you talking about? Are they secure as you had earlier stated thus referring to the saved believer or is the whole topic about unbelievers that cannot "renew themselves
again unto repentance"? That would suggest that unbelievers were renewed once... but that would make them believers... not unbelievers.
So Hebrews 6:1 and onward is about not needing to lay that foundation again when a saved believer falls away because Jesus Christ is still in them. They just need to go before that throne of grace, asking for forgiveness and help to depart from iniquity and keep them from those iniquities.
yes they are eternally secure.
[SUP]
But all are saved
You are reading in what is not there
right at last.
lol you've changed your position, you are mixed up.
It can happen to any believer, but I do believe your judgment applies to yourself this time, and it is hardly funny, brother. Since it is on God to cause the increase.. to give you wisdom in understanding what is written... I leave you to Jesus Christ. Pray about this in seeing the truth in His words, brother. Do not rely on man's education when wisdom can only come from the Lord.
