Bible Note: To understand Hebrews 6:1-6 you have to back up to Hebrews 5:12-14. The writer says here that Christians that need to be reminded of the first principles of the orcles of God are inmuture babies and still need milk because they are UNSKILLED IN THE WORD OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. According to Romans 10:1-4 a person can have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. According to v.3 you can be IGNORANT OF GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS and be seeking your own. Our righteousness is like filthy rags. You need to submit to God's righteousness which is clearly a gift. Romans 9:30-33 says that the Gentiles obtained righteousness simply by faith, but the religous people miss it. To the religous mind the truth that we are freely justified is a stumbling stone. To the religous mind Jesus is a stumbling Stone, a Rock of offence. Be carefull not to stump your tow. The writer of Hebrews is saying in v. 6:1-6 you have already laid the foundation now MOVE ON TO MUTURTY. REPENT FROM DEAD WORKS. Dead works means striving to obtain your own righteousness. Dead works are the deeds of the law by which no flesh shall be justified. Submit to the righteousness of God by faith. You have already laid the foundation. Settle the issue of righteousness and move on to muturity. |
