Hello and welcome Tumbleweed! THANK YOU FOR YOUR QUESTION. I do not believe that, a person that has an evil and unbelieving heart, can be described as being "In God". 2 Cor 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. God bless, Hopalong |

No, I don't think it refers to "falling away from sin". It is the kind of warning that a loving father would give his child. Hoppy |

HI Beja These folks are NOT believers, they are apostates! Tasting alone does not mean that they went on to eat and enjoy. One may partake, without believing. for instance I may partake of a Church service (even enjoy it) and leave and leave empty. I suggest you allow scripture interpret scripture. of God Bless, Hopalong |

You seem to be reluctant to move from your belief that these "tasters" and "partakers",are regenerate, and that despite a mountain of scripural evidence to the contrary! The answer follows.. Heb 6:5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, Heb 6:6 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. WHY? Heb 6:7 For ground that drinks the rain which often falls on it and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sake it is also tilled, receives a blessing from God; Heb 6:8 but if it yields thorns and thistles, it is worthless and close to being cursed, and it ends up being burned. Heb 6:9 But, beloved, we are convinced of better things concerning you, and things that accompany salvation, though we are speaking in this way. Can a good tree bear bad fruit! I dun tink so. Hoppy |

ANS: Repentance is a gift from God . Acts 11:18 When they heard this, they quieted down and glorified God, saying, "Well then, God has granted to the Gentiles also the repentance that leads to life." Acts 5:31 "He is the one whom God exalted to His right hand as a Prince and a Savior, to grant repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. Cor 7:10 For the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death. Hoppy |

Hi Tim, Yes, I agree. However I believe that regarding doctrine, it is advisable to allow scripture to interpret scripture. It is inadvisable to found a doctrine on a solitary verse. Hoppy Kind regards, |

Dear Pator Tim, thanks for your question. Thank God for HE has not left us out on a limb! In fact He tells us precisely who the these "partakers" are, and the extent of their participation. Heb 6:7-8 For ground that drinks the rain which often falls on it and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sake it is also tilled, receives a blessing from God; but if it yields thorns and thistles, it is worthless and close to being cursed, and it ends up being burned. These folks are the ground that partake in the common rain, but becuse of their unregenerate natures do not bare good fruit. Hoppy |

Dear Tim, Yes I do say that unregenerate people can partake of the Holy Spirit.I say it in the sense that a football fan may partake in the game but is not a member of the team. I say it in the sense that a church member may sing 'hear the preached Word, partake of the worship service,but, his heart and mind are far from God. Tim, you stated that you" just can't see any possible way that 'partakers of the Holy Spirit' can be applied to the unregenerate." To whom is the authour refering to in Heb 6:7 througot thrir are refrences to we and those. What do you mean by Common regarding The Holy Sprit? |

Dear Crystal, Verse 26-31 - The exhortations against apostacy and to perseverance, are urged by many strong reasons. The sin here mentioned is a total and final falling away, when men, with a full and fixed will and resolution, despise and reject Christ, the only Saviour; despise and resist the Spirit, the only Sanctifier; and despise and renounce the gospel, the only way of salvation, and the words of eternal life. Of this destruction God gives some notorious sinners, while on earth, a fearful foreboding in their consciences, with despair of being able to endure or to escape it. But what punishment can be sorer than to die without mercy? We answer, to die by mercy, by the mercy and grace which they have despised. How dreadful is the case, when not only the justice of God, but his abused grace and mercy call for vengeance! All this does not in the least mean that any souls who sorrow for sin will be shut out from mercy, or that any will be refused the benefit of Christ's sacrifice, who are willing to accept these blessings. Him that cometh unto Christ, he will in no wise cast out. (Matthew Henry) READ ROMANS 7 HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS! |

More and more I hear believers in Christ denying that they are part of a "RELIGION"; Rather, they contend "I just love the Lord". What does that imply? |

Hi Lionheart, I believe that there is but 2 religions in the world; one is a religion of works and the other is of grace. Maybe I'm just out of step with this postmodern culture. I have always believed that Christianity is, and has always been, the religion of grace. The True Religion which worships the True God. To be a religion it must have a statement of it's doctrines, doctrines that agree with the teaching of the Bible. If I say I have no religion then I must formulate doctrines of my own (not a good idea). Thanks, I agree with your insights on the question. Hoppy |
