“Backsliding” • Hebrews 6:4-9 – Elder Bryce Lowrance

In a passage very similar to the “I Am the True Vine” teaching in John 15, the Apostle Paul warns born again children of God to do turn away from the truth and peace that is in the gospel of Jesus Christ. Those who do are not in danger of losing their eternal salvation but they will fill their lives with destruction and sorrow apart from the fellowship of God. Paul also warns that this condition can get so bad that, apart from Divine intervention, they cannot be convinced to repent and return to their Christian walk.

Part 2 begins with a partner text in Ephesians 1.

“The ABC’s of Jesus Christ” • Hebrews 6:1-3 – Elder Bryce Lowrance.

The Apostle Paul reminds the Hebrew Christians and us that there are basic principles that we must remember and apply in our discipleship or we will not be properly growing in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ. Paul lists six things that roughly group into three categories – 1. The First Steps of a Child of God, 2. The Basics of Church, 3. The Doctrine of Grace.

Part 2 begins with the second category, The Basics of Church, in verse 2.
