The verses 10:27 to 30 are taken from the midst of the illustration of the context, in which the Spirit-given passage shows how Jesus, Prophet from The Father, shows how the Spirit sharply cleaves those who have put themselves--yea cast. themselves wholly and entirely--into the hands of God (the Father and His Son; Heb. 10:31) without recourse ever to withdrawal unto destruction of the soul (Heb. 10:39), but are all of those saved by trust only in the works of Jesus, God Incarnate (Jn. 10:37,38 that is further illustrated throughout the indivisible passage Heb. 11 that follows to and conjoined with the theme of the Trust Alone that Saves to a Joyful Future).

Jesus further speaks to His Father, to Whom He addresses in His Priestly prayer, overheard and fully recorded by Beloved John (Jn. 17) that fully secures that salvation is by Jesus' works alone, including the shedding of His sin-eradicating Blood alone, and recounted to the regenerate believer alone, excluding any justified, pre-sanctified human works of any kind (Eph. 2:8-10 as one indication, but enough though restated a thousand times, no less true).

What you, MHGinTN, have written is once more a factual statement that says that the human spirit may be restored to communication with The Creator as at the Beginning, while yet in this sin-soiled body, before its replacement by a new spiritual flesh-and-bones body like that of the Risen Messiah.

Remember, Jesus came to blood-clean human souls (Heb. 10:39), investing its yet-sinful-able flesh, but together with a freshly unsinning spirit accompanied by the Guiding Holy Spirit, the saved individual becoming ready for shedding of the old husk that now hides the chrysalis-like new spiritual body.

Eh?

Would you ping this post of mine to your ping list (upon your assent, that is)?
