Three times - Genesis 8:8, 8:10, and 8:12.... | ||||||
2 | Did Rebekah actually receive a curse? | Gen 27:27 | Out of the miry clay | 141097 | ||
In Genesis 27:27, Jacob receives a blessing instead of a curse, so there was no curse to pass along to Rebekah. However, after she and Isaac sent Jacob to Paddan-aram (Genesis 28), she did not see her favorite son again in her lifetime. (P. S. I think you meant to reference Genesis 27:13 instead of 26:13.) | ||||||
3 | Unpardonable sin | Matt 12:32 | Out of the miry clay | 143835 | ||
Hebrews 6:4-6,9 - For in the case of those who have once been enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame.... But, beloved, we are convinced of better things concerning you, and things that accompany salvation, though we are speaking in this way. (NASB) There are very few places in the Bible that imply that it would be impossible for a person to be saved after committing a particular sin. Hebrews 6:6 seems to indicate the impossibility of returning to God after truly knowing Him and then falling away. Yet, in verse 9 the writer appears to offer hope, even in in this situation. Anyway, I cited this verse to support what others have said, that it would be unlikely for a person to commit the unpardonable sin in ignorance. I'm so glad that we have the example of Saul/Paul to show us that even someone who was actively opposing the work of God, trying to eradicate belief in Jesus, can be saved. |
