Hebrews 6:4-6
Not that it makes a real difference -- impossible is impossible --, but I'm curious about the nature of the impossibility in view. Is it a legal impossibility or a psychological impossibility; an objective one or a subjective one? On the one hand it's said that it is impossible to renew them again to repentance. On the other it says they are crucifying again the Son of God. I guess I'm asking whether they are in some state of irreparable breach of contract or something like that, or whether it's a statement about our own nature, that it cannot be enlightened twice.
So, which is it . . . or is there a third option I'm not seeing?
