and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt.

WHY CROWN RATHER THAN CRUCIFY HIM?

HEBREWS 6:6

and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt.

1CORINTHIANS 16:22

If anyone has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord, come!

1PETER 3:15

but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,

HEBREWS 13:5-6

Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you.” So we can confidently say, "The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?"

1THESSALONIANS 4:16-17For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.

REVELATION 14:13

And I heard a voice from heaven saying, "Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on." "Blessed indeed," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!"

JAMES 1:12

Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.
