Warning Against Falling Away

6:4-6Ref -- Heb 10:26-31

11 We have much to say about this, but it is hard to explain because you are slow to learn. 12 In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths⁶ of God's word all over again. You need milk, not solid food!⁷ 13 Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant,⁸ is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. 14 But solid food is for the mature,⁹ who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.¹⁰
