HEBREWS 6: 3 & 6 & 9; 20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. (2)

Micah 3 : 11 The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money: yet will they lean upon the LORD, and say, Is not the LORD among us? none evil can come upon us. (2)

2 & 5 & 8

HEBREWS 6: 18 That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for GOD to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: (9)

19 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;

Micah 3 : 9 Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and princes of the house of Israel, that abhor judgment, and pervert all equity. (9)

10 They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.

1 & 4 & 7

HEBREWS 6: 9 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak. (9)

10 For GOD is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward His name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:

2 & 5 & 8

HEBREWS 6: 15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. (6)

16 For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.

17 Wherein GOD, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath:

Micah 3 : 6 Therefore night shall be unto you, that ye shall not have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them. (6)

7 Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners confounded: yea, they shall all cover their lips; for there is no answer of GOD.

8 But truly I am full of power by the spirit of the LORD, and of judgment, and of might, to declare unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin.

1 & 3 & 8

HEBREWS 6: 6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the SON of GOD afresh, and put him to an open shame. (6)

7 For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from GOD:

8 But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.

1 & 3 & 8

HEBREWS 6: 12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. (3)

13 For when GOD made promise to Abraham, because He could swear by no greater, He sware by Himself,

14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.

Micah 3 : 12 Therefore shall Zion for your sake be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of the forest. (3)

1 & 3 & 8

HEBREWS 6: 1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of CHRIST, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward GOD,

2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

3 And this will we do, if GOD permit. (3)

4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,

5 And have tasted the good word of GOD, and the powers of the world to come,

Micah 3 : 1 And I said, Hear, I pray you, O heads of Jacob, and ye princes of the house of Israel; Is it not for you to know judgment?

2 Who hate the good, and love the evil; who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;

3 Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron. (3)

4 Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but He will not hear them: He will even hide His face from them at that time, as they have behaved themselves ill in their doings.

5 Thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that make My people err, that bite with their teeth, and cry, Peace; and he that putteth not into their mouths, they even prepare war against Him.
