Hebrews 6:6-8
New International Version
6 and who have fallen[a] away, to be brought back to repentance.(A) To their loss they are crucifying the Son of God(B) all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace. 7 Land that drinks in the rain often falling on it and that produces a crop useful to those for whom it is farmed receives the blessing of God. 8 But land that produces thorns and thistles is worthless and is in danger of being cursed.(C) In the end it will be burned.

8 But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.
