To believe, in the Hebrew tradition, is to follow in minute detail, at the cost of your life if you fail.
One who believes doesn't parse scripture for a more desirable meaning. One who believes follows every commandment, and lives by every reason given, without question.
If one who lives this way makes a small mistake, it is not charged to him. That is called Grace.

Dude....the verses I posted and "parsed" as you suggest were from a prior post you posted.
The question I asked still remains unanswered by you and I guess it shall. Perhaps you are afraid to answer the question. Because if Heb 6 teaches what you suggest it does, there is no second chance of getting your salvation back if you lose it.
I will ask again....is that what you really believe??
