1 | Unpardonable sin | Matt 12:32 | ngkh | 143802 | ||
I have read commentaries and discussions done in 2002 but I've still some questions and would appreciate some enlightening. 1) What constitute blasphemising the Holy Spirit (NIV and NKJV) ? 2) If a christian whose church do not believe in the speaking of tongues i.e. holy spirit, and thus to say that its not acceptable, will they fall under this category? My bro-in-law is in this church. 3) Does this verse not contradict the full Grace of the Lord? Even if you talk against Jesus Christ is still forgivable. 4) What if the person who does not understand the Holy Spirit and have talked bad about the Spirit. ( Would it be reasonable for a man who is not a believer or ignorant like the Pharisees to say that it is a demon instead? (Matthew 12:24)) 4) Would you say that man in general who do not understand but witness a miracle ( healing, exorcism) would normaly look at it in a negative manner (skeptics). Will skeptics then also fall under this category of unforgivable sin? Thus if a person who is a non believer then, argued that the Holy Spirit is utterly nonsence and crap but later repented and born again. No use? (damned for eternity) Thank you. |

Blasphemy is attributing any act of the Holy Spirit to the power of the Devil. The Holy Spirit is God's kingship here on earth. By giving this over to the enemy, we say that God's power is limited therefore, blaspheming the Spirit. | ||||||

refugestarr: Is the blasphemy you speak of the same as the unpardonable sin? Perhaps there may be a difference? Thank you for responding. justme |

Read Matthew 12:24-33 In context, you see that this is in fact the only unforgiven sin. |

refugestar: One must be careful to keep the dialogue between Jesus and the Pharisees and the croud in order and in context. After reading this over the years and reading what other biblical scholars have written, it seems to mean the following. The unpardonable sin is not something a born again Christian can committ. This sin is a irreversible hardness of ones heart, and only those who have turned their backs on God and rejected all faith and refuse to acknowledge God's power in Christ have committed the unforgivebal sin. From my view point looking at whom to witness to, I personally believe I should share the Gospel with whom ever might listen. Only God knows who is lost forever. Perhaps we might say everyone who rejects Jesus as Lord has indeed committed the unpardonable sin. Often when I have had someone ask what the unpardonable is , it is a Christian that fears they committed it. No sin except rejecting Jesus Christ is unpardonable, whould you not agree? Blessings. justme |
