and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance; seeing they crucify the Son of God for themselves again, and put him to open shame.For the land which has drunk the rain that comes often on it and produces a crop suitable for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receives blessing from God;but if it bears thorns and thistles, it is rejected and near being cursed, whose end is to be burned.But, beloved, we are persuaded of better things for you, and things that accompany salvation, even though we speak like this.For God is not unrighteous, so as to forget your work and the labor of love which you showed toward his name, in that you served the saints, and still do serve them.We desire that each one of you may show the same diligence to the fullness of hope even to the end,that you won’t be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and perseverance inherited the promises.
