    Hebrews 10:26

    "For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,"

    Is the verse saying there no more chances if you keep sinning because no more sacrifice? If you keep sinning you can't sacrifice to make up for the sin. Like you toast?

    This verse talk like it is referring to you being alive and no more sacrifice for sin. If it meant after death they would not need to say " remaineth no more sacrifice for sins".

    Man this hard to learn...Does it mean something else maybe?

    Basically the Holy Ghost will have to burn the demon in the baptism of fire in Judgement. The baptism of fire is where the Devil and his angels get cast into the lake of fire, they won't have the Holy Ghost. We believers will. If you willfully sin you will be worst off than when you did start. Meaning not as great in the Kingdom of God, less inheritance.

    Matthew 3:10-13

    10 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

    11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and [with] fire:

    12 Whose fan [is] in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

    The bad trees are also known as tares, demons. He didn't punish the demons yet because he seeks to salvage and harvest the good works of Faith. Upon baptism of water and initial confession of Lord Jesus, sin remisses. However wilful sin after that is not remissable and must wait and be burnt away upon harvesting of the wheat(good works of Faith). Baptism of water gives us good conscience to grow. Baptism of fire removes the sin as we enter the Kingdom of God upon harvest(Judgement Day)

    Matthew 13

    29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

    30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together firs
