Hebrews 6:1-8

1Therefore leaving the basic teaching of the Messiah, let us move on toward maturity—not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of trust in God,

2of teaching about immersions, laying on of hands, resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.

3Now this we will do, if God permits.

4For it is impossible for those who once were enlightened—having tasted of the heavenly gift and become partakers of the Ruach ha-Kodesh,

5and having tasted the good word of God and the powers of the olam ha-ba ,

6and then having fallen away—to renew again to repentance, since they are again crucifying Ben-Elohim for themselves and publicly disgracing Him.

7For the earth—having soaked up the rain frequently falling on it—brings forth vegetation useful to those for whom it is farmed; and it shares in God’s blessing.

8But if it produces thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed—its end is to be burned over.
