Hebrews 6:1

The Peril of Not Progressing

1 Therefore, ^aleaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to¹ perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from ^bdead works and of faith toward God,

2 ^aof the doctrine of baptisms, ^bof laying on of hands, ^cof resurrection of the dead, ^dand of eternal judgment.

3 And this¹ we will do if God permits.

4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted ^athe heavenly gift, and ^bhave become partakers of the Holy Spirit,

5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come,

6 ¹if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, ^asince they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.

7 For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, ^areceives blessing from God;

8 ^abut if it bears thorns and briers, it is rejected and near to being cursed, whose end is to be burned.
