In this podcast we finish Hebrews 6:9-20. We do a quick wrap up of the first eight verses of chapter six and plough new ground. Good works are a proof of our salvation – not the other way around. We can be assured of the security of our salvation based on two important points: God’s promise and God’s oath. If His promise wasn’t good enough, God proceeds to take an oath swearing His Word is true!
A final thought at the end of the chapter is the “inclusio” or bookends (an ancient way of pointing out that everything between the bookends is one thought and significant). The issue of maturity is the overarching theme of this passage. You see this from Hebrews 5:10 & 6:20.
This podcast is a live recording of a non-denominational Bible study led by Dr. Val. Some 20-25 men meet each week at 6:30 AM for an hour. They study and discuss the passage. Questions are encouraged and often lead to rabbit trails that help us discover and process additional Biblical truths.
