Bible Question: does God turn his back on someone because of blasphemy? |
Bible Answer: Jesus says a person who blasphemes against the Holy Ghost will not be forgiven. It seems that he cannot be. It is the Holy Spirit who convicts us of sin and shows us the truth of the scripture, that Christ died for our sins. If we blaspheme against him we are rejecting his work in our hearts and actually attributing it to Satan. How then can we be saved? We would be rejecting the only way of salvation. |
