Bible Question: What happens to a person after they have blasphemed against the Holy Spirit?

Bible Answer: The "unpardonable sin" is saying the devil is responsible for the work of the Holy Spirit, see Matthew 12:23.

Why this sin is unforgiveable lies not with God's unwillingness to forgive a penitent believer, but rather the obstinance of someone who is so hardened that they are unable to recognize the difference between God and the devil. Hence, its not that God won't pardon them if they repent, (whether they CAN repent is the subject of Hebrews) but rather, they can't accept God's pardon because they don't recognize Him or His authority to grant one.

This is the most severe form of rejection that a person can make against God.

The consequence of separation from God is spiritual death.

If anyone worries about whether or not they have committed this sin, surely they have not, for if they had, they wouldn't care.
