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. |
Bible Question (short): what does "falling away" mean? |
Question (full): I was wanting to know what "falling away" means...pertaining to my life...I found Christ when I was 14 and I was totally involved and the Holy Spirit was in me, but I slowly began to long to be "popular" in high school and fell away from God and was living in sin, But a year ago I realized what I had been doing and have been trying to repent, but this time has never been the same. I know I have the head knowledge of God and I know what is right and wrong, but praying is so different this time and it's like I have very little emotions. And I know I slipped away and fell into sin after tasting God. I want your honest answer. Remember if you think that you should give me some encouraging thought that goes against what you believe, not only will you be considered "least in the Kingdom of Heaven" (Matthew 5:19), but it will be also lying to me (which is a sin)...I'm seeking the truth |
