Yes, v. 26 is about those who reject Christ, those who count His blood a common thing after having been sactified by it (v. 29).

You can’t just change the author’s subject willy-nilly to make him say what you want him to.

You can listen to him or not, it’s your choice. /shrug

If your view is correct then the writer contradicts himself and a lot of the NT regarding the eternal security of the believer. I don't see that happening here.

It flies against this:

Jesus said: Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life. (John 5:24)

On your security in Him: My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give eternal life to them, and they shall never perish; and no one shall snatch them out of My hand. (John 10:27-28)

On your homepage you note you are a Christian.....do you believe you can lose your eternal security?

If so, why?

What must you do to keep it?
