Repentance in Hebrews 6:6

 

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.

 

Subject Repenting, not repenting, etc.:        A hypothetical believer who apostatizes (falls away) from the Christian Faith.

 

Object of that repentance: The object is not expressly stated, but from the context, it appears to be identical to verse 1.  One must repent of dead works and trust in Christ alone to be saved.  One who falls away from the Christian faith unto a religion of salvation by ritual must be restored to the same faith by which he was saved.  One does not start with Christ, and move on to greater doctrines.  Jesus Christ is, and will be for eternity, the Lamb who was slain for our sins.  He will forever be the object of our faith, our worship, our adoration, our love and our appreciation.

 

Consequence of repentance:                 Not stated in the immediate context.  The context is plainly addressing restoration of a believer falling away from the faith.  The greater context of the entire epistle shows that one who falls away from his faith also walks away from his inheritance.  (The privilege of ruling and reigning with Christ, which is a reward for faithfulness to our Savior.)
