The subject is often found at the beginning of a conversation or monologue and the conclusion is often found at the end. So it isn't an oddity to find 2 scriptures separated by a few chapters that directly correspond with one another.

I should have been clearer--the reason for my earlier post is that some people connect Heb 6:4 to Heb 10:26 and use the two verses, without reading any of the context between, to condemn everyone they think isn't just "right". Considering the whole context of the book is reasonable. Cutting out everything between two verses is not.
Knee jerk reaction to something that messed me up for years, not something related to the discussion here. I have no argument with the study and discussion on this thread.
