NASB | Hebrews 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. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 6:6 and then have fallen away--it is impossible to bring them back again to repentance, since they again nail the Son of God on the cross [for as far as they are concerned, they are treating the death of Christ as if they were not saved by it], and are holding Him up again to public disgrace. |
Subject: disciplerami, how do we keep salvation? |
Bible Note: David F, what you have related here is how I understand losing one's salvation. A Christian sins, probably daily, but he doesn't fall into and out of grace daily. The blood of Christ covers the sin immediately. That immediate blessing doesn't release the Brother from the necessity of reflection, remorse and repentance, but he does have immediate forgiveness. In order for him to lose his salvation, he has to shake a fist at God, he has to make the decision that he doesn't care anymore. He in essence, becomes party to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Then God removes from him the saving grace and his sins are recorded against him. You are correct. It isn't easy to fall, but it is definitely possible. |
