**5 warnings of Hebrews**o 2:1-4—do not drift from the gospelo 3:7-4--- Today if you hear his voice do not harden your hearts.o 5:11-6:8-- warning against becoming dull of hearing o Heb 10:26-31 - For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a terrifying expectation of judgment and THE FURY OF A FIRE WHICH WILL CONSUME THE ADVERSARIES. 28 Anyone who has set aside the Law of Moses dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 How much severer punishment do you think he will deserve who has trampled under foot the Son of God, and has regarded as unclean the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has insulted the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know Him who said, "VENGEANCE IS MINE, I WILL REPAY." And again, "THE LORD WILL JUDGE HIS PEOPLE." 31 It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God.o Heb 12:25-27**1. Became dull of hearing**a. Heb 5:11 - Concerning him we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing.b. Heb 10:32-34 - But remember the former days, when, after being enlightened, you endured a great conflict of sufferings, 33 partly by being made a public spectacle through reproaches and tribulations, and partly by becoming sharers with those who were so treated. 34 For you showed sympathy to the prisoners and accepted joyfully the seizure of your property, knowing that you have for yourselves a better possession and a lasting one.c. Matt 13:14-16 (prophecy of Isaiah) - "In their case the prophecy of Isaiah is being fulfilled, which says, 'YOU WILL KEEP ON HEARING, BUT WILL NOT UNDERSTAND; YOU WILL KEEP ON SEEING, BUT WILL NOT PERCEIVE;15 FOR THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE HAS BECOME DULL, WITH THEIR EARS THEY SCARCELY HEAR, AND THEY HAVE CLOSED THEIR EYES, OTHERWISE THEY WOULD SEE WITH THEIR EYES, HEAR WITH THEIR EARS, AND UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEART AND RETURN, AND I WOULD HEAL THEM.' 16 "But blessed are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear.**2. Should have become teachers**a. Heb 5:12 - For though by this time you ought to be teachers, b. They’ve had exposure to so much teaching.c. 2 Tim 3:7 - always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.Heb 6:7,8 - For ground that drinks the rain which often falls on it and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sake it is also tilled, receives a blessing from God; 8 but if it yields thorns and thistles, it is worthless and close to being cursed, and it ends up being burned.**3. They never got beyond the ABC’s of their faith.**a. Heb. 5: 12b - you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, and you have come to need milk and not solid food.Rom 3:2 - Much in every way. To begin with, the Jews were entrusted with the oracles of God.Isa 28:9-13 - "To whom will he teach knowledge, and to whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from the milk, those taken from the breast?10 For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little."11 For by people of strange lips and with a foreign tongue the Lord will speak to this people,12 to whom he has said, "This is rest; give rest to the weary; and this is repose"; yet they would not hear.13 And the word of the Lord will be to them precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little, that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.**4. They need milk and not solid food because they do not practice what they know.**Heb 5:13 - For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant.Rom 2:17-24 - But if you bear the name "Jew" and rely upon the Law and boast in God, 18 and know His will and approve the things that are essential, being instructed out of the Law, 19 and are confident that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness, 20 a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of the immature, having in the Law the embodiment of knowledge and of the truth, 21 you, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach that one shall not steal, do you steal? 22 You who say that one should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? 23 You who boast in the Law, through your breaking the Law, do you dishonor God? 24 For "THE NAME OF GOD IS BLASPHEMED AMONG THE GENTILES BECAUSE OF YOU," just as it is written.1 Cor 3:1-3 - But I, brothers, could not address you as spiritual people, but as people of the flesh, as infants in Christ. 2 I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you were not ready for it. And even now you are not yet ready, 3 for you are still of the flesh. For while there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not of the flesh and behaving only in a human way?Matt 24:12-13 - "Because lawlessness is increased, most people's love will grow cold. 13 "But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.Heb 5:14 - But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.Phil 4:11 - Not that I speak from want, for I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am.2 Peter 1:3 - seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.
