HEBREWS.6:1-8 (NKJV) The Peril of Not Progressing

6 Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, 2 of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. 3 And this we will do if God permits.

4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.

7 For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, receives blessing from God; 8 but if it bears thorns and briers, it is rejected and near to being cursed, whose end is to be burned.

.

The verses at ROMANS.3:19-28 that you quoted are the elementary principles of Christ which mature Christians should not be still dwelling on or not as babes in Christ still drinking spiritual milk(1COR,3:1-3) but to move on to perfection by feeding on solid foods/bread of life. Hence, my emphasis on the big difference between the "before and after" being saved by faith in Jesus Christ.

Still making use of the law as a schoolmaster because of a lack of skill in the doctrine of justification by faith in Christ is the what the Judaising babes in Christ were doing, and is what the writer of Hebrews is addressing in Hebrews 5 & 6. 

.

Maybe, you need to move to this thread to continue the discussion about "Judaizing babes in Christ", .......

There is a difference in the gospels preached by Peter and Paul.

It is evident by the preaching of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Below, Peter was speaking;


Acts 2:30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;

According to Peter, Christ was raised to sit on the throne of David in the coming earthly kingdom.

Romans 4:24 But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;

4:25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

According to Paul's gospel above, Christ died for our sins; as our substitute; to satisfy and appease the wrath, justice, and righteousness of God.

The cross of Jesus Christ provided our atonement.

He was buried.

He rose again for our justification.

This is the gospel we are to believe and trust alone for our salvation and eternal life.
 

 

Oh, but what was David's throne a type and shadow of?  It was a similitude of God's kingdom, the kingdom of heaven that is coming to earth.  ( "thy will be done, thy kingdom come on earth as it is in  heaven")  NEW Jerusalem coming down prepared as a bride, not the old Jerusalem.  Those who are earthly minded will not understand and are in danger of accepting a false earthly messiah and want to throw out Paul to their peril.  It's not surprising in these perilous days that Paul is increasingly coming under attack.

Hi douge,

There is only one way to salvation through Christ, whether people understood fully or not. Now what you are trying to explain is that Christ gave Peter and the other disciples the command to go and preach Him as Lord and Saviour. This we do also. They then had the understanding of Israel`s inheritance and we know that too.

However when the Lord ascended to the Father`s right hand and sent His Holy Spirit to guide us into ALL the truth of Himself, His character and His purposes, we read that the Lord, by the Holy Spirit opened up to the Apostle Paul more revelation of His purposes - the Body of Christ. This is the further revelation.

Not that there are two gospels, good news, but that there is further revelation revealed to the ascension apostles concerning Christ`s purpose for the Body of Christ.

regards, Marilyn.

Sister, Israel's inheritance IS the promised land called the gospel......the land of sabbath rest in Christ.  THAT is her inheritance which the physical promised land was a similitude/type and shadow of.  Israel is the Body of Christ by faith in Christ, which we Gentiles may also join by faith.  That's why it's called the Israel of God.....only believing Israel is the Israel of God (which included faithful OT saints), not un-believing Israel.  There is no separate purpose for un-believing Israel in that sense except that they need to repent or perish just the same as un-believing Gentiles, and we hope and pray they do....which as scripture indicates they will in the end, though even then remember it will only be a remnant of those who survive the tribulation.

Meanwhile though we need to be aware and BEWARE that the devil has purposes too, and I'm sorry to say that un-believing Israel figures heavily in them, right along with a fallen away church that has their eyes on the temporal, which is all going to culminate with a temporal (flesh and blood) messiah being given power and his seat in Jerusalem, and will persecute the true gospel.

The physical land called Israel is temporal and waxing old as a garment as is the rest of the planet......there is coming a new earth and new heavens.  So we are not to have our thoughts and affections on temporal things.

2Co 4:18

While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

(That is a key when we read the bible too....read it looking at the eternal things which the temporal things are a picture  (parable) of, teaching us about the eternal/spiritual.)

Gal 6:15-16

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.

And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

That's right sister .   The promise to Abraham ,   WAS CHRIST .   and in THY seed shall ALL NATIONS be blessed .

What is sad , is this concept just aint enough for most folks  . BUT the whole of it all ,  WAS IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE CHRIST JESUS .

Some folks just love to worship the flesh .    And love to point to men or groups or etc .    BUT WE POINT TO JESUS ONLY .

And that is why I GOT ALL JOY AND HOPE .     OH sister ,  you just leap up and praise the LORD .

Any man , woman or child who looks to the law to be justified , will end up fried .   For by the law shall NO FLESH , none , no , not one be JUSTIFIED IN HIS SIGHT .

But the law can be used for correction .     Even james or was it paul , maybe it was paul that reminded them about the FIFTH commandment .

And how often did we hear do not steal , or let him that stole , steal no more .    That is a commandment too .

We should always use them scriptures in all places for a means of correction and reminder of intrucion in righteous living .

But we cannot and must not look to the law for any means to attain any righteousness ,  no  not justification ,    no to be saved etc .

I truly wish folks knew that GOD always desired obedience unto all things HE has said or does say .   

And if they knew what the entire purpose for JESUS and HIS going to the cross they would not sit under men who make void things GOD has said ,

but rather would walk by the SPIRIT which fulfills .

But any time this gets brought up ,   folks are like you looking to earn it , you works ,  NO , its called living it by the power of the SPIRIT , now may all go and do likewise .

FOR greater is HE in us than he of this world .    Ya just don't know how sad it is , to hear and see folks twist JESUS sayings or make void the law by a grace WHICH IS NO GRACE

if it allows that .      IF it allows one to feel free while in disobedience , transgression ,  sin ,    JESUS is not guiding those folks .  HE aint .

For surely had the Spirit been in one and they follow and obey ITS unctions ,  WELL the things done would be WELL PLEASING in HIS SIGHT .

After ALL it would be HE in us working that which is well pleasing in HIS SIGHT .   and transgression aint pleasing in HIS SIGHT .

Sometimes I fear big time for folks who seem to make the grace o GOD , the Spirit of Christ as a co author or author of lawlessness .   THAT AINT JESUS .    It goes by another name .

THE MAN OF LAWLESSNESS .

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
