Bible verses about "backslider" | MNT

Hebrews 6:4-6

4 For in the case of those who have been once for all enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift, 5 and become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the Future Age, 6 and then fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again unto repentance. For they repeatedly crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and expose him to an open shame.

1 John 1:9

9 But if we confess our sins, faithful is he and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all wrong-doing.

Hebrews 10:26-31

26 For if we sin wilfully, after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains any other sacrifice for sins, 27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fiery indignation which is about to devour the adversaries. 28 Any one who set at naught the law of Moses was put to death without pity, on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 How much surer, think you, will be the punishment of one who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has profaned that covenant blood with which he was sanctified, and has done despite to 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 FEARFUL THING TO FALL INTO THE HANDS OF THE LIVING GOD!
