Bible Note: Not a chance! Consider you've just misread Paul, if he is the one who wrote Hebrews. Lets read it all: 13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. Now pay close attention to whats coming: 6:1 Therefore leaving the principles/elementary teachings of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, Of the doctrine of baptisms/washings-NASB, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. All elementary to Paul and you say, what? What perfection is he speaking of if it be not something we 'strive' for NOW having the same Spirit within as Jesus had? 1 JN.5.5 Who is he that "overcomes" the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? I believe the word "overcome" is what bothers you all. Want more? I've got more. |
