1 | Unpardonable sin | Matt 12:32 | justme | 143812 | ||
Hank: My study of Scripture in relationship to the "unpardonable sin" has boiled down to one conclusion, and that is to reject Jesus Christ, and to remain in that belief at the time of ones death. A person who so rejects the Holy Spirit's pleading to make Christ Lord has blasphemed the Holy Spirit. Is this not what you have saiid? I believe satan uses this topic to cause believers to doubt the "sealing of the Holy Spirit" upon us as the mark of Jesus Christ's ownership of us. Then again this also points us to the "eternal secuurity of the believer", at least from my Baptist point of understanding of Scripture. (I am not trying to push my theological view point on anyone) My belief is that only at ones death is the sin "unpardonable". Would you not agree? Blessings to you Hank. justme |

2 | Unpardonable sin | Matt 12:32 | Ray | 143815 | ||
Hi justme, In your other post you spoke of "God's power through the Holy Spirit". What is the "power" that was used to cast out the demons in Matthew 12:28? We can not say along with the Pharisees that it was a demonic spirit because that would be blasphemy. Could we say however that it was a holy spirit that cast out the demons? Could not we say that He cast out demons by the power and spirit of God? Matthew 12:28, "But if I cast out demons by the *spirit of (God), then the kingdom of God has come upon you." Luke 11:20, "But if I cast out demons by the *finger of (God), then the kingdom of God has come upon you." From the heart, Ray |
