Hebrews 10:26-39 - A Serious Warning Against Continuing Deliberate Sin
26 If we continue to (practice) (deliberately persist in) sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sins. 27 But there remains a certain fearful expectation of judgment and a fiery indignation, which will devour God's enemies. 28 He that despised Moses' Law died without mercy under two or three witnesses. 29 What about those who despise the Son of God? Those who treat as a cheap thing the blood of God's covenant that purified them from sin? Those who insult the Spirit of grace? Think how much worse the punishment they deserve will be! 30 We know who said: Vengeance is mine; I will repay; and who also said, Jehovah will judge his people. (Deuteronomy 32:35) 31 It is a dreadful (terrible) thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
32 Remember the former days in which, after being enlightened, you endured great struggle with afflictions. 33 You were at times publicly insulted and mistreated. Other times you were ready to join those who were being treated in this way. 34 You shared the sufferings of prisoners. When all your belongings were seized, you endured your loss gladly. This is because you knew that you possessed something much better, which would last forever. 35 Do not lose your courage (confidence) (boldness). It brings a great reward with it. 36 You need to persevere in order to do the will of God and receive what he promises.
37 In just a little while, he who is coming will come. He will not delay! 38 My righteous people will live by faith. If any of them turn back, I will not be pleased with them.
39 We are not people who turn back and are destroyed. Instead, we have faith and are saved.
