Charles Spurgeon Commentary Hebrews 6:1

"Wherefore leaving the doctrine of the first principles of Christ, let us press on unto perfection; not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God," — Hebrews 6:1 (ASV)

Therefore leaving the principles –

The rudiments, the elementary truths, –

Of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection;—

Let us go from the school to the university, let us have done with our first spelling-books, and advance into the higher classics of the kingdom.

Not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,

Let us make sure that the foundation is laid, but let us not continually have to lay it again. Let us go on believing and repenting, as we have done; but let us not have to begin believing and begin repenting; let us go on to something beyond that stage of experience.
