Jan 4, 2022 · To sin willfully is to be proud and presumptuous in one’s defiance of God (Psalm 19:13; Hebrews 10:26). Willful sins bring God’s judgment, sooner or later, but sins of ignorance are not excusable, either: “So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.

Dec 12, 2023 · This is the “willfully sinning” that Hebrew 10:26 refers to—consciously and deliberately rejecting Christ. It’s not a sin of ignorance or weakness; it’s a deliberate turning of one’s back on the truth, with full knowledge choosing sin over Christ. John also warned that willful, continual sin is a sign of unbelief: “No one who is ...

The key verse that he’s referring to goes like this: “For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins” (Hebrews 10:26). In other words, we’re beyond salvation. Now, two observations about this phrase “go on sinning deliberately” are really important. First, the word delib...
This is a correction to Josh’s assumption that all sinning is equally willing — or all human acts are equally willing — since all acts, including sin, are acts of the will. That’s true. They are acts of the will. We choose them. This text, Hebrews 10:26, is saying something more than that the sin which destroys the soul is an act of the will. Of co...
Now here’s the second thing to notice in the phrase “go on sinning deliberately” [or “willingly” or “eagerly”].” It’s that phrase “go on sinning,” which is a good translation of the present tense of the Greek verb for sin. In other words, it’s not a single act; it’s not a few acts; it’s not periodic acts. It’s rather a settled, persistent continuat...
I have two passages that stop me from saying that his reference to some kind of sanctified condition for the person who is lost means that we can have the full experience of salvation in Christ and be lost or lose it. There are two passages, Hebrews 10:14 and Hebrews 3:14. Here’s Hebrews 10:14(see what you think): “For by a single offering” — that’...
My conclusion is that the experience of sanctification referred to in the lost person of Hebrews 10:26 and 10:29is a measure of God-influenced moral renovation in a person that has been absorbed by being part of the church, professing some kind of faith, being attracted by many things about the Christian faith and Christian people, but never really...

Mar 28, 2023 · Every sin is “willful” sin. Because of the sin nature that dwells within us, there’s a very real sense in which we often sin against our own wills (Romans 7). In other words, every sin is “willful sin.”. If it weren’t, we wouldn’t be responsible; and if we’re not responsible for our own actions, sin can’t be sin at all.
Oct 2, 2024 · James 4:17. “So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him, it is sin.”. This verse highlights the sinfulness of willful disobedience, not only in committing overt acts of sin but also in failing to do what is right and just when we know better. It calls believers to a higher standard of righteousness and responsibility.

A Premeditated Sin. For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sin (Hebrews 10:26). The critical term in the above passage is “sin willfully” and is similar to the rebellion against God that is described in the Old Testament as sinning “with a high hand” or ...
