1 | What was this sin...? | Matt 12:32 | Stultis the Fool | 128204 | ||
Perhaps Hebrews 10:26-31 is a better refference (still contextually similar to the refference in Hebrews 6:4-6): "For if we go on sinning willfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a terrifying expectation of judgment and THE FURY OF A FIRE WHICH WILL CONSUME THE ADVERSARIES. Anyone who has set aside the Law of Moses dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much severer punishment do you think he will deserve who has trampled under foot the Son of God, and has regarded as unclean the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know Him who said, "VENGEANCE IS MINE, I WILL REPAY." And again, "THE LORD WILL JUDGE HIS PEOPLE. It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God." Consider specifically the final result of the course of sin defined in verse 29: "How much severer punishment do you think he will deserve who has trampled under foot the Son of God, and has regarded as unclean the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?" Can there be any denying that the author of this passage ultimately refers to the Holy Spirit when he writes the phrase "Spirit of grace?" Based on the full passage, can there be any denying that the sin perpetrated here is unpardonable? According to the passages in Matthew, blasphemy is only "unpardonable" regarding the Holy Spirit. This passage directly refers to "insulting" the Spirit. I cannot imagine what deed the Pharisees may have performed in Matthew 12:24 that was not a direct insult to the Spirit. Now I ask: What is the answere to the question you posed, "What was this sin...?" in your previous post. |
