Chapter 6 Therefore, leaving the
principles of the doctrine of Christ,

00:07.240 --> 00:12.960
let us go on unto perfection, not laying
again the foundation of repentance from

00:12.960 --> 00:18.560
dead works and of faith toward God,
of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying

00:18.560 --> 00:23.160
on of hands, and of resurrection of the
dead, and of eternal judgment.

00:23.700 --> 00:26.200
And this will we do, if God permit.

00:26.200 --> 00:31.480
For it is impossible for those who were
once enlightened, and have tasted of the

00:31.480 --> 00:36.620
heavenly gift, and were made partakers of
the Holy Ghost, and have tasted the good

00:36.620 --> 00:41.560
word of God, and the powers of the world
to come, if they shall fall away,

00:41.920 --> 00:47.820
to renew them again unto repentance,
seeing they crucify to themselves the Son

00:47.820 --> 00:51.080
of God afresh, and put Him to an open
shame.

00:51.980 --> 00:56.300
For the earth which drinketh in the rain
that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth

00:56.300 --> 01:01.700
forth herbs, meet for them by whom it is
dressed, receiveth blessing from God.

01:02.280 --> 01:08.040
But that which beareth thorns and briars
is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing,

01:08.340 --> 01:10.220
whose end is to be burned.

01:11.200 --> 01:16.940
But, beloved, we are persuaded better
things of you, and things that accompany

01:16.940 --> 01:19.160
salvation, though we thus speak.

01:19.720 --> 01:25.400
For God is not unrighteous to forget your
work and labor of love, which ye have

01:25.400 --> 01:30.700
shewed toward His name, in that ye have
ministered to the saints, and do minister.

01:31.320 --> 01:35.920
And we desire that every one of you do
show the same diligence to the full

01:35.920 --> 01:41.940
assurance of hope unto the end,
that ye be not slothful, but followers of

01:41.940 --> 01:45.260
them who through faith and patience
inherit the promises.

01:45.780 --> 01:50.400
For when God made promise to Abraham,
because he could swear by no greater,

01:50.660 --> 01:56.620
he swear by himself, saying, Surely
blessing I will bless thee, and

01:56.620 --> 01:59.000
multiplying I will multiply thee.

01:59.640 --> 02:04.360
And so, after he had patiently endured,
he obtained the promise.

02:04.920 --> 02:10.580
For men verily swear by the greater,
and an oath for confirmation is to them an

02:10.580 --> 02:11.860
end of all strife.

02:12.640 --> 02:18.000
Wherein God, willing more abundantly to
show unto the heirs of promise the

02:18.000 --> 02:25.420
immutability of His counsel, confirmed it
by an oath, that by two immutable things,

02:25.720 --> 02:31.060
in which it was impossible for God to lie,
we might have a strong consolation,

02:31.860 --> 02:36.860
who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon
the hope set before us.

02:37.500 --> 02:43.260
Which hope we have as an anchor of the
soul, both sure and steadfast,

02:43.540 --> 02:46.140
and which entereth into that within the
veil.

02:46.800 --> 02:52.600
Whither the forerunner is for us entered,
even Jesus, made an high priest forever

02:52.600 --> 02:55.060
after the order of Melchizedek.
