Matthew Henry Commentary Hebrews 6:9-10

"But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak: for God is not unrighteous to forget your work and the love which ye showed toward his name, in that ye ministered unto the saints, and still do minister." — Hebrews 6:9-10 (ASV)

There are things that are never separated from salvation; things that show the person to be in a state of salvation and which will end in eternal salvation. And the things that accompany salvation are better things than any dissembler or apostate ever enjoyed. The works of love, done for the glory of Christ, or done to his saints for Christ's sake, from time to time, as God gives occasion, are evident marks of a man's salvation; and more sure tokens of saving grace given, than the enlightenings and tastings spoken of before. No love is to be regarded as love but working love; and no works are right works that do not flow from love to Christ.
