AI-assisted, sourcedHebrews 10:26-31A warning against wilful sin
About Hebrews 10The law was "a shadow of good things to come," for "it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins," but Christ came "to do thy will, O God," and "by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified." So, "Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus," let us draw near, "hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering," and not forsake "the assembling of ourselves together," for if we sin wilfully after knowing the truth, "there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins." Remembering how they once "endured a great fight of afflictions," they must not cast away their confidence, "But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul."
