Hebrews 10 — Context

24

And let us be moving one another at all times to love and good works;

25

Not giving up our meetings, as is the way of some, but keeping one another strong in faith; and all the more because you see the day coming near.

26

For if we do evil on purpose after we have had the knowledge of what is true, there is no more offering for sins,

27

But only a great fear of being judged, and of the fire of wrath which will be the destruction of the haters of God.

28

A man who has gone against the law of Moses is put to death without pity on the word of two or three witnesses:

29

But will not the man by whom the Son of God has been crushed under foot, and the blood of the agreement with which he was washed clean has been taken as an unholy thing, and who has had no respect for the Spirit of grace, be judged bad enough for a very much worse punishment?

30

For we have had experience of him who says, Punishment is mine, I will give reward. And again, The Lord will be judge of his people.
