45. Warnings in the Epistle to the Hebrews

 
“J.” In order to understand the entire Epistle to the Hebrews, you must bear in mind, that the Apostle is addressing a body of professors who were in constant danger of returning to Judaism. This will account for the solemn warnings with which this Epistle abounds. It should also be noted, that those warnings addressed to professors stand intimately connected with the clearest statements as to the eternal security of all true believers. Mere professors may apostatize; but Christ’s sheep shall never perish.
