Yes, Hebrews is a very good book that shows us the goal of entering into His rest, and the consequences a believer may face if he neglects the calling. But only a general, "loss of rewards" consequence for unfaithful believers is not consistent with how God judges and disciplines. Just like Hebrews 2:2 says, "For if the word having been spoken by angels was unalterable, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense, how shall we escape, having neglected such a great salvation,...."
God judges and disciplines proportionally and specifically according to the transgression.

Those under Law, rejecting such a great salvation thru faith in the long-promised
Lamb of God, will receive just recompense for every transgression and disobedience. That is true. This is why the Book of Hebrews was written to these Hebrews.
