Nehemiah 9:29
9:29 And you solemnly admonished them in order to return them to your law, but they behaved presumptuously and did not obey your commandments. They sinned against your ordinances – those by which an individual, if he obeys them,
will live. They boldly turned from you;
they rebelled
and did not obey.
Jeremiah 8:5
8:5 Why, then, do these people of Jerusalem
continually turn away from me in apostasy?
They hold fast to their deception.
They refuse to turn back to me.
Hosea 4:16
4:16 Israel has rebelled like a stubborn heifer!
Soon the Lord will put them out to pasture
like a lamb in a broad field!
Hebrews 10:38-39
10:38 But my righteous one will live by faith, and if he shrinks back, I take no pleasure in him.
10:39 But we are not among those who shrink back and thus perish, but are among those who have faith and preserve their souls.
