1 | what does J.C means | Mark 3:30 | BrettFoster | 119314 | ||
J.C. means Jesus Christ. Many poeple will say the Lord's name in vain. This is a sin and a violation of the Ten Commandments, but does not blaspheme the Holy Spirit. | ||||||
2 | Blasphemy against Holy Spirit | Mark 3:30 | BrettFoster | 119037 | ||
I am not dogmatic about my interpretation, but I think Hank's scriptures quotes back up my point. If Hank is right, then I'm right. How can you blaspheme something you don't have or even understand? You are ignorant of the Holy Spirit until you accept Jesus as your saviour. When you accept Jesus, He gives you the Holy Spirit for comfort and to be "taught all things". This would imply spiritual ignorance for those without the Holy Spirit. Why would any "non-believer" speak against "blaspheme" the Holy Spirit, especially since they probably don't know the consequences? To what end...for what purpose? Makes no sense. The non-believer is quite good at cursing God or saying J.C. at the drop of a hat...all forgivable. Have you EVER heard ANYONE in your life speak against the Holy Spirit? Of course not. That is because I believe it is an ACT...the one described in Hebrews 6:4. Whether or not Hank is right, or we're both right, is moot if we are believers. There is however a good 3rd possibility when you look up the meaning of blasphemy. It could also apply to those who exalt themselves as or above God...see #1b SYLLABICATION: blas·phe·my PRONUNCIATION: AUDIO: blsf-m KEY NOUN: Inflected forms: pl. blas·phe·mies 1a. A contemptuous or profane act, utterance, or writing concerning God or a sacred entity. b. The act of claiming for oneself the attributes and rights of God. 2. An irreverent or impious act, attitude, or utterance in regard to something considered inviolable or sacrosanct. Hank implies I have made up my mind and I'm finding scripture to back it up...on the contrary. I believe all 3 views mentioned have scriptural merit. Now look at Hanks verse Matt 12:31-32...then mine Hebrews 6:4-6. Notice there is NO repentance or forgiveness in both verses. They fit! Matthew 12 31 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. 32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. Hebrews 6 4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. And there you have it...accepted Christ...fell away...condemned to hell...CANNOT repent...obviously will never be forgiven.....UNFORGIVABLE SIN!!!!! I am openminded, but I believe my interpretation has scripural merit. Brett www.raptureforce.com |
