Bible Note: PART 1 Good Morning Mommabps, It is now 9:am in the Nations Capital. You might want to get a cup of coffee because this one might take a minute. I've done alot of reading on Hebrews 6:4-5 and I came up with something clear and simple. It's taken from the 'Believer's Bible Commentary' by William MacDonald, he said, "We come now to the heart of the warning against apostasy. It applies to a class of people whom it is IMPOSSIBLE to restore again to repentance. Apparently these people had once repented, though no mention is made of their faith in Christ. Now it is clearly stated that a renewed repentance is impossible. Who are these people? The answer is given in verses 4 and 5. In examining the great privileges which they enjoyed, it should be noticed that all these things could be true of the unsaved. It is never clearly stated that they had been born again. Neither is any mention made of such essentials as saving faith, redemption by His blood, or eternal life. They had once been enlightened. They had heard the gospel of the grace of God. |
