The Danger Of Being Enlightened, Yet Continuing In Sin

The Apostle Paul warns us of the danger of continued sinning. You will not hear this from most preachers of our day who are tickling their listeners ears and telling people what they want to hear. If our soul is valuable to us, we need to realize the danger of continued sinning.

Brothers and sisters, we are responsible for what we do with the gospel. Many are falling away "as they continue to crucify the Son of God to their own detriment by exposing him to public ridicule". So many people think that by saying a so called "sinners prayer" they are "saved" and can go on sinning. Ear tickling preachers teach this. The scriptures do not. If you are continuing in willful sin, you are playing with falling away and being cursed and burned.

Hebrews 6 ISV
The Peril of Immaturity

4For it is impossible to keep on restoring to repentance time and again people 

• who have once been enlightened, 
• who have tasted the heavenly gift, 
• who have become partners with the Holy Spirit,
• 5who have tasted the goodness of God’s word and the powers of the coming age, 
• 6and who have fallen away, 
• as long as they continue to crucify the Son of God to their own detriment by exposing him to public ridicule. 

7For when the ground soaks up rain that often falls on it and continues producing vegetation useful to those for whom it is cultivated, it receives a blessing from God. 8However, if it continues to produce thorns and thistles, it is worthless and in danger of being cursed, and in the end will be burned.
