Hebrews 6:4 - 6:6 is one of the most misunderstood verse selection of Scripture. It is often cited as proof that Eternal Security is an invalid teaching. If taken out of context, it would seem to support this claim. However, verses of Scripture must be considered not only in the context of the chapter, they are a part of, but also in the overall context of Holy Scripture. That is the scope of this Bible study.
To understand Hebrews 6:4 - 6:6 , it is necessary to ascertain the overall salvation teachings of its writer, the Apostle Paul. Since Holy Scripture is one complete God inspired writing, it is also necessary to understand the Bible's salvation teaching. Only then can a Bible Study present an accurate interpretation of this group of verses.
This Bible study of Hebrews 6:4 - 6:6 is broken down into several pages for ease of loading & study. One may be tempted to skip to the final page of the study for an answer; but, this is not recommended since you will not clearly understand the how & why this is the only interpretation which makes sense & does not conflict with other scriptural verses. Please read each of the following two pages so that you gain the most understanding of the verses, & Paul's intent in writing them.
