HEBREWS 6:4-5
"For it is impossible to bring back to repentance those who were once enlightened- those who have experienced the good things of heaven and shared the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the Word of God and the power of the age to come- and WHO THEN TURN AWAY FROM GOD."
What happens to those who come to a saving grace and repent of their sins and become enlightened, who experience the goodness of God and the Holy Spirit and then TURN AWAY FROM GOD? Have they committed the unpardonable sin? Have they blasphemed the Holy Spirit? Is it impossible to bring them back to repentance? This question is one of the most important that can be asked of any individual. Many have argued as to whether it is possible or impossible to lose your repentance. We do know that if you blaspheme the Holy Spirit, that is the unpardonable sin.
It is possible to never accept the Holy Spirit into your life. You can choose to reject your Saviour that is Jesus Christ the Lord God, and the consequences are clear. Separation from God for eternity is the penalty for rejecting God. You will die the second death and spend eternity in Hell for making the wrong choice. The next question is what happens to those WHO TURN AWAY FROM GOD after coming to a saving grace and repentance?
This truth for today and this scripture have a clear answer to the question asked above. It would appear that the penalty for having tasted the sweetness of the Lord and then rejecting Him is just as devastating as never accepting Jesus Christ in the first place. The implication is that anyone who turns away from God will find it impossible to be brought back to repentance and Salvation. Those who hold out to the very end in their love of God will be saved. Is it possible for anyone who has loved God and then rejected Him to come back to a saving grace? The best answer is to never put yourself in the position of rejecting God. If you do turn from God then your only hope would be to beg for God's forgiveness and ask for His forgiveness. The answer to the will of God is known only to Him and you must throw yourself on His mercy. If you have turned away from God then right now get on your knees and cry out for His mercy!
