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, |
2
|
Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. |

4
|
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, |
5
|
And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, |
6
|
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. |
7
|

13

15
|

17
|
Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed [it] by an oath: |
18
|
That by two immutable things, in which [it was] impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: |

Which [hope] we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; |
20
|
Whither the forerunner is for us entered, [even] Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. |
