Get Them Grounded

Hebrews 6

4 For it is impossible to bring back to repentance those who were once enlightened—those who have experienced the good things of heaven and shared in the Holy Spirit, 5 who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the power of the age to come—6 and who then turn away from God. It is impossible to bring such people back to repentance; by rejecting the Son of God, they themselves are nailing him to the cross once again and holding him up to public shame.

This is perhaps one of the saddest passages in all of scripture. It points out to me our great need to get folks firmly grounded in the Word of God, so that they will not choose to turn their backs on Him and crucify Jesus all over again. We are not doing a great job in that area with adults at VCC. Lord,may the things I learned yesterday and those I learn today, help me to be able to help reverse that trend at VCC.
