and have tested the good word of God and the powers of the age to come,
Hebrews 6:5
"Those who once confessed that the Word of God is the sustenance ruling over their spirit, soul, and body; those who possessed prophetic insight, foreknowing the age to come; those who, through yesterday’s Word, realized that God is light; and those who tasted the heavenly gift and shared in the Holy Spirit.
While the English Bible renders this in the present perfect tense, biblical scholars interpret that in the Greek cultural context of the author of Hebrews, the aorist participle was used.
In other words, while this strongly emphasizes those who once held such profound, mystical spiritual experiences, it simultaneously serves as a sobering warning, awakening us to the consequences should they fall away.
As we share the message of verse 6 tomorrow, I earnestly pray that we will fight the good fight to keep our faith! ✝️👏
Keep the faith in Christ!"
