Hebrews Lesson 8: Maturity, Apostasy, and Access to God through Christ

This lesson centers on Hebrews chapter 6, urging believers to move beyond the elementary teachings of the faith and press on toward spiritual maturity. We explore the distinction between "milk" and "solid food," encouraging a transition from foundational doctrines—such as repentance and baptisms—into deeper spiritual understanding. The class addresses the solemn warning against apostasy, discussing the historical pressures Jewish Christians faced to return to Judaism and the danger of falling away. Amidst these warnings, we find hope in the certainty of God’s promises, illustrated by His unchangeable oath and the example of Abraham’s faithful obedience. Furthermore, we examine how Jesus, our High Priest, has removed the barriers of the old tabernacle system to grant believers direct access to God. Finally, the session introduces practical tools like the "Power of Four" to help you maintain consistency in your study of Scripture.
