Therefore we should not be puffed up.... But we should beware lest somehow, after [we have come to] the knowledge of Christ, if we do things displeasing to God, we obtain no further forgiveness of sins but rather be shut out from His kingdom" (Heb. 6:4-6).

They turn His liberality into slavery.... For do not many afterwards fall out of grace? Is not this gift taken away from many?"
