Many failed attempts have been made to dodge or dilute the truth of Hebrews 10:26-31; which is often done by using other verses about our security as believers; as they can appear on the surface to be contradictory. However, in doing so, this approach ignores the facts that the context here - both preceding and following - clearly addresses the entire text of Hebrews 10 to believers. In this 9+ minute segment from a larger sermon, these verses - Hebrews 10:26-31 - are taught and proclaimed in context; while explaining that the often alleged contradiction or dichotomy is like one of the many paradoxes* in God's created world; thus bringing balance to our understanding of His eternal truth; which reveals to us that Jesus Christ saves from both the penalty and power of sin. While we need to be secure as believers, to live in continual sin as a lifestyle is not a good thing; because no liars, thieves, and fornicators - etcetera , etcetera - are going to be in Heaven. For more understanding of verses Hebrews 10:26-31, read - in context - the following scriptures that are also written for us as believers: 1 Corinthians 6:8-11; Galatians 5:19-21; Ephesians 5:1-7; Colossians 3:5-7 and Jesus Christ's own words in Revelation 21:5-8. Please remember though, we are saved by grace through faith - from sin - not to sin; which is not accomplished by our good works. Through this freely given grace we are created for God ordained good works that we are called to walk in. (See Ephesians 2:8-10). If anyone teaches contrary to full New Testament truth, let's stop listening to them, no matter how popular they are or how they may appeal to someone's itching ears. May we all take all the words of Hebrews 10 more seriously. * an example of a paradox "in God's created world" is direct current electricity or magnets, having both positive and negative characteristics. Another paradox is the earth's polar opposites, north and south; etcetera. Opposites bring balance, like servant-leaders, a husband and wife, mother and father, etcetera, etc.
