Hebrews 6:1-12 ▼

1 Wherfore let vs leave ye doctryne pertayninge to the beginninge of a Christen man and let vs go vnto perfeccio and now no more laye the foundacio of repentaunce from deed workes and of fayth towarde God

2 of baptyme of doctryne and of layinge on of hondes and of resurreccion from deeth and of eternall iudgemet.

3 And so will we do yf God permitte.

4 For it is not possible yt they which were once lyghted a nd have tasted of the hevenly gyft and were become partetakers of the holy goost

5 and have tasted of the good worde of God and of the power of the worlde to come:

6 yf they faule shuld be renued agayne vnto repentaunce: for as moche as they have (as concerninge them selves) crucified the sonne of God a fresshe makynge a mocke of him.

7 For that erth which drinketh in the rayne wich cometh ofte vpon it and bringeth forth erbes mete for them that dresse it receaveth blessynge of god.

8 But that grounde which beareth thornes and bryars is reproved and is nye vnto cursynge: whose ende is to be burned.

9 Neverthelesse deare frendes we trust to se better of you and thynges which accompany saluacion though we thus speake.

10 For god is not vnrighteous that he shuld forget youre worke and laboure that procedeth of love which love shewed in his name which have ministred vnto the saynctes and yet minister

11 Yee and we desyre that every one of you shew the same diligence to the stablysshynge of hope even vnto the ende:

12 that ye faynt not but folowe them which thorow fayth and pacience inheret the promyses.
