“For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.”
Hebrews 6:4-6 KJV
They profess they know God, but cannot cease from sin because they abhor God's commandments that are grievous to them. There is no discernment between the holy and the unclean thing. They love darkness rather than light. Though they say, "I love Jesus!", surely they swear falsely. Carnal minded. Lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God. Dead in trespasses and sins. Miserable comforters they are! Hypocrites crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh. It has happened to them according to the true proverb:"The dog has turned to his vomit again, and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire."
Ekklesia 192
