Introduction:Jesus, the son of God. It was He who sent his only son to die for the sins of all men and women. It was a sacrificial love that pierced the veil, allowing everyone to live in the presence of the Holy Spirit. In this New Covenant, those who accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior are forgiven for the sins they have yet to commit. Because of persecution, the second generation of Christians were tempted to return to their Judaism, to the Jewish ways, returning to the ancient teaching of the Old Covenant. The book of Hebrews was written by an unknown author. The author writes to Rome to remind people that Jesus Christ is superior to every aspect of the Old Covenant. Therefore Christians must be faithful to the New Covenant. Throughout the book, however, the writer makes significant points of the topic with warnings to readers. These warnings are what the author hopes to get at. Because of the wording of these warnings, incorporated with the author's use of Galatians and historical reconstruction, it seems to be evident that the warnings must inscribe the possibility of not ensuring sure salvation. Paragraph 1: In the introduction of the book, the author clearly states that after Jesus had provided purification for sins, he sat at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven, and it was then that he became more superior to the angels. In fact the angels adored him. At this time, the author presents the first warning. (2:1-4), which addresses the supremacy of the passage Christ over the angels. In principle, the point is not to “go adrift” (2.1). Those who reject the evidence and message of salvation in approval of a message of lesser judgment found through angels will face worse judgment than was… middle of paper… the sower. Good works and productivity are evidence of genuine faith. Furthermore, the author may have had in mind someone like Judas who would clearly fit his description in 6:4-6. “For it is impossible to bring back to repentance those who were once enlightened, those who have experienced the good things of heaven and have partaken of the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the power of the world to come—and who then they turn away from repentance; they themselves, rejecting the Son of God, nail him once again to the cross and expose him to public shame" (Holy Bible, Hebrews 6:4-6). Those who had been in a growing congregation and had also experienced the Spirit of God at work in their lives were said to be that if they fall away, they “crucify the Son of God again” (6:6), making it impossible. so that they may obtain the professed salvation.
