 it is not of God to put forward His law when His Spirit is here still more fully to demonstrate sin, righteousness, and judgment to the world. And His word showing (not law nor promise only, but) accomplishment in Christ is surely "good," and for all the baptized at least to taste that it is good, even if there be no longer the powers of the coming age, as we see them notably absent from the seven churches of the Revelation. But to give up all this, after having once profited by its wondrous excellence in the name of the glorified Jesus, is fatal. (Hebrews 6:4-8 by W. Kelly)
 These miracles were a partial anticipation of the full and glorious deliverance which should take place in the world to come, when the triumphant Messiah, the Son of God, should entirely destroy all the power of the enemy. Hence, they are called the “powers of the world to come.” (Hebrews 6 by J.N. Darby)
 Speaking generally, the power of the Holy Spirit, the consequence of the Messiah’s being glorified above, was exercised on earth as a present manifestation and anticipation of the great deliverance to come. (Hebrews 6 by J.N. Darby)
 To “taste the good word” is to have understood how precious that Word is; and not the having been quickened by its means. (Hebrews 6 by J.N. Darby)
