Dear CDBJ, The fullest discourse of "Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit" is in Matt 12:24-37. If you study this doctrine in it's context, it explains what this sin is. I think you will find that it refers to the pharisees accusation that Christ cast out demons by the power of Satan. The unforgivble sin is the slanderous charge that calls the Holy Spirit demonic. blasphêmia; from 989; slander:--abusive language(1), blasphemies(4), blasphemous(2), blasphemy(6), railing(1), slander(3), slanders(1). If we reject the gospel (and die in our sins), all our sins will remain unforgiven. Perhaps you should reread John Owen's question and ponder a bit further on it. But, I warn you, it may change your theology. The Father imposed His wrath due unto, and the Son underwent punishment for, either: 1.All the sins of all men. 2.All the sins of some men, or 3.Some of the sins of all men. In which case it may be said: 1.That if the last be true, all men have some sins to answer for, and so, none are saved. 2.That if the second be true, then Christ, in their stead suffered for all the sins of all the elect in the whole world, and this is the truth. 3.But if the first be the case, why are not all men free from the punishment due unto their sins? You answer, "Because of unbelief." I ask, Is this unbelief a sin, or is it not? If it be (sin), then Christ suffered the punishment due unto it, or He did not. If He did, why must that hinder them more than their other sins for which He died? If He did not, He did not die for all their sins!" May God Bless Your Pondering, Brother John |

Hi John, one more thing that I wanted to mention was that those that were accused of blasphemy were rejecting the convicting work of God in person by refusing to believe who Jesus was, and that can't be forgiven; later the Holy Spirit would continue the work individually on a world wide basis because he could be all over at the same time but Jesus was restricted at that time by his body, thus it is for our benefit that Jesus goes away. Does this ring any bells brother John, CDBJ |
