Write a prayer response to Heb
6:1-20
Text (NASB):
Heb. 6:1 Therefore leaving the elementary teaching about the
Christ, let us press on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of
repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, 2 of instruction about
washings and laying on of hands, and the resurrection of the dead and eternal
judgment. 3 And this we will do, if God permits. 4 For in the case of
those who have once been enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift and
have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the
good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 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. 7 For ground that
drinks the rain which often falls on it and brings forth vegetation useful to
those for whose sake it is also tilled, receives a blessing from God; 8 but if it yields
thorns and thistles, it is worthless and close to being cursed, and it ends up
being burned.
Heb. 6:9 But, beloved, we are convinced of better things
concerning you, and things that accompany salvation, though we are speaking in
this way. 10 For God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the love
which you have shown toward His name, in having ministered and in still
ministering to the saints. 11 And we desire that
each one of you show the same diligence so as to realize the full assurance of
hope until the end, 12 so that you will not
be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the
promises.
Heb. 6:13 For when God made the promise to Abraham, since He
could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself, 14 saying, “I WILL
SURELY BLESS YOU AND I WILL SURELY MULTIPLY YOU.” 15 And so, having
patiently waited, he obtained the promise. 16 For men swear by one
greater than themselves, and with them an oath given as
confirmation is an end of every dispute. 17 In the same way God,
desiring even more to show to the heirs of the promise the unchangeableness of
His purpose, interposed with an oath, 18 so that by two
unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have taken
refuge would have strong encouragement to take hold of the hope set before us. 19 This hope we have as
an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which
enters within the veil, 20 where Jesus has
entered as a forerunner for us, having become a high priest forever according
to the order of Melchizedek.
