“But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation…” (Hebrews 6:9)
When someone comes to know the Lord they receive the indwelling Holy Spirit to aid them in living the Christian life and to comfort them along the way. Some of the other things that accompany salvation would be, “the fruit of the Spirit; love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness goodness, faith, meekness and temperance.” (Galatians 5:22-23) Other things are sobriety, assurance of salvation, peace that passes all understanding, hunger and thirst for the things of God, Godly behavior and a list too long for this page.
The writer is saying that the evidence will show that a saved person is a changed person. There are some accompanying marks that bear the proof.
