The question of Christian apostasy—whether a believer can fall away and return to Christ—has sparked intense debate throughout church history. Hebrews 6:4-6 is one of the most sobering and controversial passages in Scripture, warning that it is "impossible to renew to repentance" those who turn away. But what does this mean?
