Hebrews 10:26-39 - A Serious Warning Against Continuing Deliberate Sin

26 For when we sin wilfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, 27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which will devour the adversaries. 28 He that despised the law of Moses died without mercy, under two or three witnesses. 29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and counted the blood of the covenant, by which he hath been sanctified, an unholy thing, and done despite to the spirit of grace? 30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance is mine; I will recompence: and again, The Lord will judge his people. 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

32 But call ye to mind the former days, in which, after ye were inlightened, ye endured so great a conflict of sufferings: 33 Partly being made a gazing-stock both by reproaches and afflictions; partly being partakers with them who were so used. 34 For ye sympathized with my bonds, and received with joy the spoiling of your goods, knowing that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance. 35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. 36 For ye have need of patience, that, having done the will of God, ye may receive the promise.

37 For yet a little while, and he that cometh will come and will not tarry. 38 Now the just shall live by faith; but if he draw back, my soul hath no pleasure in him.

39 But we are not of them who draw back to perdition, but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
