Heb 2:3 | MHM | STEP | v. 3 : The punishment for ignoring the gospel is even worse than for ignoring the law. The gospel is called a “great salvation”—so great that nothing else can compare to it. It shows us how we can be saved from sin and made right with God. Ignoring this salvation is a serious sin. The writer asks, How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation? (Hebrews 2:3 ). This means that those who turn away from the gospel have no excuse and no way to avoid punishment. Like Jesus said, He that believes not is condemned already (John 3:18 ). There is no other way to be saved except by accepting the gospel of Christ. If we reject it, we face God’s judgment without any hope of escape.

It shows us how we can be saved from sin and made right with God. Ignoring this salvation is a serious sin. The writer asks, How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation? (Hebrews 2:3 ^a). This means that those who turn away from the gospel have no excuse and no way to avoid punishment. Like Jesus said, He that believes not is condemned already (John 3:18 ^b). There is no other way to be saved except by accepting the gospel of Christ. If we reject it, we face God’s judgment without any hope of escape.
