Hebrews 6:10

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 6:4-20

Hebrews 6:4-20 Exhortation. I. The danger of apostasy. The Hebrews had become lukewarm, negligent and inert; the Gospel, once clearly seen and dearly loved by them, had become to them dim and vague; the persecution and contempt of their countrymen, a grievous burden under which they groaned, and with which they did not enjoy their fellowship with the Lord Jesus.

And this will we do, if God permit ( Hebrews 6:1-3 ).Let's leave these basic principles, doctrines of salvation and... read more

Unrighteous The word must not, with Stuart, be softened to unkind. God holds himself righteously bound to grant more grace for grace well used. The man who does a measure of sincere duty may lay hold of God’s righteousness as pledged to aid him, in accordance and without measure. And the writer goes on to show that God is pledged by... read more
