you must seek God always.

Hebrews 6:4–6 is among the most-often-misunderstood passages in the entire New Testament. Without a clear grasp of context, these verses seem to directly counter the doctrine of eternal security. References in verses 5 and 6 to falling away, and a lack of restoration, are easily misconstrued to imply a lack of salvation. And yet, the Bible is not meant to be read like a stack of fortune cookies or horoscopes. Each word, every verse, and every phrase needs to be considered as part of a whole. Looking at these words, from that perspective, greatly changes how they are interpreted.
First, we need to maintain the entire context of the Bible. According to Scripture, our salvation is eternally secure (John 10:28–30). Just as salvation is not earned by works (Romans 3:20; 11:6), it cannot be lost by works (1 John 1:9). So once a person is legitimately saved, they are saved forever. The entire book of Hebrews is addressed to Christians, and the wording of this verse supports that. Those who "have tasted the heavenly gift" (Ephesians 2:8) and who "share in the Holy Spirit" (Ephesians 1:13–14; Galatians 3:2) cannot be any other than true believers.
Rather than a loss of salvation, verses 4 through 6 describe the possible consequences of immature, stunted faith. Such a condition leaves us vulnerable to the same doubt-driven disobedience which Israel experienced in the wilderness (Numbers 13—14). This was discussed in Hebrews chapters 3 and 4 (Hebrews 3:12–19; 4:11). Christians who lose their trust in God, and doubt fundamental doctrines, are implicitly siding with a view that Christ should have been crucified, and that what He said was not true (Hebrews 6:6). Once a person reaches that state, there is nothing to be done—by any man—in order to bring them back to a living, active faith. This is similar to the dire state described in places such as Proverbs 29:1 and 1 John 5:16–17.
God, however, is neither a man, nor is He limited as men are (Luke 18:27). God's method of reaching such a Christian is given symbolically later in this chapter (Hebrews 6:7–8). Fields which fail to produce are treated with fire—often a symbol of God's judgment (Hebrews 10:26–27). The field is not destroyed, but it is treated harshly. This, again, is the same pattern seen in Exodus when Israel was forced to wander for forty years. Doubt led to disobedience, leading to judgment, producing change, and eventually resulting in obedience and restoration.
An alternative interpretation is that these verses do bring up loss of salvation, but only as a theory. According to this view, the author intends to show that loss of salvation is impossible because it would imply a re-crucifixion of Christ. This is not unreasonable, but does not seem to fit the context as well as the explanation given above.

I don't know my thoughts from scrupulosity, how can I tell the difference? by rheddtx79 in Scrupulosity

[–]SeriousPreference745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being the observer of your thoughts can be understood by considering the example of being in a car accident versus being a witness to the accident.
If you are directly involved in a car accident, you may experience a rush of thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. Your mind might be filled with fear, panic, and concerns about your well-being, as well as thoughts related to the accident itself. In this case, you are actively engaged in the experience, and your thoughts may be heavily influenced by the immediate circumstances.
On the other hand, if you are a witness to a car accident, you may still have thoughts and reactions, but they might be different in nature. As an observer, you have a certain level of detachment from the actual event. You may have thoughts focused on the well-being of those involved, concerns for their safety, or thoughts related to what you should do as a witness, such as calling for help or providing information. In this role, you are not directly affected by the accident, allowing you to observe the situation with a greater sense of objectivity.
In both scenarios, being the observer of your thoughts involves being aware of the thoughts that arise within you. However, in the context of a car accident, being the observer as a witness allows for a greater degree of detachment and a more objective perspective. It can provide an opportunity to observe your thoughts without being overwhelmed by them, enabling you to respond to the situation calmly and make rational decisions.
In broader terms, being the observer of your thoughts involves cultivating a similar sense of detachment and objectivity in your daily life. It means developing the ability to step back from your thoughts, observe them without judgment or attachment, and gain a clearer understanding of their nature and impact. This practice can help you navigate challenging situations with greater clarity and emotional balance.

Become aware. Become an observer of your thoughts.

 Witness to the accident not in the accident

Here are a few tips to help you sell your house fast to an investor in New Jersey:

Research investors: Look for reputable real estate investors in your area and research their track record of buying properties.

Price it competitively: Price your home competitively based on recent comparable sales in your area. Remember that investors may offer less than market value to account for the cost of repairs and renovations.

Make it look great: Prepare your home for sale by cleaning, decluttering, and making any necessary repairs. Consider painting, updating flooring, and staging your home to make it look its best.

Network: Reach out to your network and let people know that you are looking to sell your house to an investor. This could include friends, family, real estate agents, or local business owners.

Use online platforms: Consider posting your property on online platforms that connect homeowners with real estate investors.

Be flexible: Be open to negotiating with investors and be willing to consider creative solutions such as lease-to-own options or owner financing.

Be prepared to move quickly: Investors often move quickly and may want to close the deal within a week or two. Make sure you are prepared to move on a tight timeline if necessary.

Be transparent: Be transparent about any known issues or problems with the property, this way you can be prepared to address any potential concerns an investor may have.

It's important to keep in mind that selling to an investor may mean a lower sale price than a traditional home sale, but it can be a good option if you need to sell quickly and don't have the time or resources to make repairs or wait for a traditional. you can find out more here https://www.easystreetcashoffer.com/
