Hebrews
Simplified restating "It is impossible to
restore again to repentance believers who fall
away."

• Impossible adunatos without possibility

CHAPTER SIX

Hebrews
To fall away is impossible (since, according to
this view, true believers are eternally secure),
but the phrase is placed in the sentence to
strengthen the warning. It is similar to saying
something like this to a class of students It
is impossible for a student, once enrolled in
this course, if he turns the clock back which
cannot be done, to start the course over.
Therefore, let all students go on to deeper
knowledge. The Ryrie Study Bible

Hebrews
Not talking about

• Sin (chapter 9)

• Failing (us)

• Backsliding (Peter)

CHAPTER SIX

Hebrews
Would those of the once-saved-always-saved camp
believe you could live anyway you wanted and it's
OK?
Would those of the you-can-lose-your-salvation
camp teach that you are kept by how much sinning
you don't do?

• The Bible says, "Certainly not! How shall we who
  died to sin live any longer in it?" (Rom. 62)

• The Bible says, "But even if we, or an angel
  from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than
  what we have preached to you, let him be
  accursed." (Gal. 18)

Hebrews
Sluggish same word as in 511 (Melchizedek)
of whom we have much to say, and hard to
explain, since you have become dull of hearing.
