Either believe or draw back

But we are not of those who draw back to perdition, but of those who believe to the saving of the soul. Hebrews 10:39

The apostle here contrasts two groups, in one group are people who draw back to perdition, in the other group are those who believe in the salvation of souls .

If we believe in the salvation of souls, we will not be among the backsliders. By drawing back a person shows that he does not believe in the salvation of souls.

Those who believe in the salvation of souls will not draw back, because they have heard the Lord's Promise, "The righteous shall live by faith," they believed that promise and want to receive it. To receive the promise we must go forward, not backward. As long as we believe in the Lord's promise, we will not draw back. Either believe or draw back;. it is impossible to do both.

I believe, therefore I must go forward.
