I've got to disagree
with Paul on this one. In fact I find it
illogical based on some of the other things he has said.
Hebrews 6:4-6(NKJV)
4For it is impossible for those who were
once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become
partakers of the Holy Spirit,
5and 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.
He seems to be
saying that if you were a believer but have fallen away, you can't come back to
Jesus.
I disagree. The only thing that I recall in the Bible
about permanent exile as it were is for blaspheming the Holy Spirit. Other than that, I believe God will always
take us back if we repent.
I'll have to keep an
eye out for more on this issue as I read in the coming weeks.
