58:005:007 Who in the days of his flesh, when he had
offered up prayers
and
supplications with strong crying and tears unto him
that
was
able to save him from death, and was heard in that
he
feared;
58:005:008 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience
by the things
which
he suffered;
58:005:009 And being made perfect, he became the author
of eternal
salvation
unto all them that obey him;
58:005:010 Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.
58:005:011 Of whom we have many things to say, and
hard to be uttered,
seeing
ye are dull of hearing.
58:005:012 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers,
ye have need
that
one teach you again which be the first principles of
the
oracles
of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and
not
of strong meat.
58:005:013 For every one that useth milk is unskilful
in the word of
righteousness:
for he is a babe.
58:005:014 But strong meat belongeth to them that
are of full age, even
those
who by reason of use have their senses exercised to
discern
both good and evil.
58:006:001 Therefore leaving the principles of the
doctrine of Christ,
let
us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation
of
repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
58:006:002 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying
on of hands, and of
resurrection
of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
58:006:003 And this will we do, if God permit.
58:006:004 For it is impossible for those who were
once enlightened, and
have
tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers
of
the
Holy Ghost,
58:006:005 And have tasted the good word of God, and
the powers of the
world
to come,
58:006:006 If they shall fall away, to renew them
again unto repentance;
seeing
they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and
put
him to an open shame.
58:006:007 For the earth which drinketh in the rain
that cometh oft upon
it,
and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is
dressed,
receiveth blessing from God:
58:006:008 But that which beareth thorns and briers
is rejected, and is
nigh
unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.
58:006:009 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things
of you, and
things
that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
58:006:010 For God is not unrighteous to forget your
work and labour of
love,
which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have
ministered
to the saints, and do minister.
58:006:011 And we desire that every one of you do
shew the same diligence
to
the full assurance of hope unto the end:
