- 6:4 For as touching those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit, 6
- 6:6 and [then] fell away, it is impossible to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. 5
- 6:19 which we have as an anchor of the soul, [a hope] both sure and stedfast and entering into that which is within the veil; 4
- 6:1 Wherefore leaving the doctrine of the first principles of Christ, let us press on unto perfection; not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 3
- 6:12 that ye be not sluggish, but imitators of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. 3
- 6:17 Wherein God, being minded to show more abundantly unto the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, interposed with an oath; 3
- 6:5 and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the age to come, 2
- 6:18 that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us: 2
- 6:9 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak: 1
- 6:10 for God is not unrighteous to forget your work and the love which ye showed toward his name, in that ye ministered unto the saints, and still do minister. 1
- 6:11 And we desire that each one of you may show the same diligence unto the fulness of hope even to the end: 1
- 6:13 For when God made promise to Abraham, since he could swear by none greater, he sware by himself, 1
- 6:16 For men swear by the greater: and in every dispute of theirs the oath is final for confirmation. 1
- 6:20 whither as a forerunner Jesus entered for us, having become a high priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek. 1
