Admin	🤔 is blasphemy really unpardonable sin or not ❓ Posted : 13 Jul, 2021 10:16 AM Matthew 12: 32 “Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come " ☑️ Some logical reasons why it is pardonable 1️⃣ The blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, specific as it was to the Pharisees’ situation, cannot be duplicated today. Jesus Christ is not on earth, and no one can personally see Jesus perform a miracle and then attribute that power to Satan instead of the Spirit 2️⃣ Also notice in Matthew 12 :27 Fed up ! Jesus is speaking directly to the Pharisees confronting their blasphemous accusation and because he is God he judges them stating that satan and his demons will " be there judge " definitely a case for eternal damnation ❗ again this is applying to the Pharisees in his presence 👉👉 NOT ALL HUMANITY “If I by Beelzebul cast out demons, by whom do your sons cast them out? For this reason they will be your judges 3️⃣ The only unpardonable sin today is that of continued unbelief. There is no pardon for a person who dies in his rejection of Christ. The Holy Spirit is at work in the world, convicting the unsaved of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8). If a person resists that conviction and remains unrepentant, then he is choosing hell over heaven. “Without faith it is impossible to please God” (Hebrews 11:6), and the object of faith is Jesus (Acts 16:31). There is no forgiveness for someone who dies without faith in Christ. 4️⃣ God has provided for our salvation in His Son (John 3:16). Forgiveness is found exclusively in Jesus (John 14:6). To reject the only Savior is to be left with no means of salvation; to reject the only pardon is, obviously, unpardonable. 5️⃣ many people fear they have committed some sin that God cannot or will not forgive, and they feel there is no hope for them, no matter what they do. Satan would like nothing more than to keep people laboring under that misconception. God gives encouragement to the sinner who is convicted of his sin: “Come near to God and he will come near to you” (James 4:8). “Where sin increased, grace increased all the more” (Romans 5:20). If you are suffering under a load of guilt today, rest assured that you have not committed the unpardonable sin. God is waiting with open arms. Jesus’ promise is that “he is able to save completely those who come to God through him” (Hebrews 7:25). Our Lord will never fail. “Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD, the LORD himself, is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation” (Isaiah 12:2) 6️⃣ the testimony of Paul is proof positive that God can and will save anyone who comes to Him in faith (1 Timothy 1:12–17) 12 "I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, putting me into service, 13even though I was formerly a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent aggressor. Yet I was shown mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief; 14 and the grace of our Lord was more than abundant, with the faith and love which are found in Christ Jesus. 15 It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost of all. 16Yet for this reason I found mercy, so that in me as the foremost, Jesus Christ might demonstrate His perfect patience as an example for those who would believe in Him for eternal life. 17Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen " Post Reply

LittleDavid View Profile History	🤔 is blasphemy really unpardonable sin or not ❓ Posted : 13 Jul, 2021 02:19 PM Blasphemy isn’t an unpardonable sin. But blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is an “unpardonable” sin but ONLY in the particular sense in which Jesus’ intended to convey it. Before Jesus knocked him off his donkey, Paul says he was a blasphemer, a persecutor and a violent man, he also forced persecuted Christians to blaspheme. Later, after salvation, Paul confessed he had been the worse of sinners. But he said the reason God saved him was to set an example for those coming to faith. So after saving Paul, no one can ever claim they are too evil to be saved. Jesus just proved he can save the worse, by saving Paul. Post Reply
LittleDavid View Profile History	🤔 is blasphemy really unpardonable sin or not ❓ Posted : 13 Jul, 2021 02:55 PM RSVP is right, too many people worry they’ve committed the unpardonable sin and can’t be saved. But none of them, I’ve ever heard, are able to prove they’ve actually done that. So if you think you’ve committed the unpardonable sin, then you need to prove it. Seems those who think they’ve committed it don’t know what it is. When Jesus said that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is the unpardonable sin, it was stated in a very specific context in which certain people—some very hard-hearted religious people—kept saying Jesus was casting out evil spirits by the devil. These hard-to-the-core in their hearts people had clearly rejected the REVELATION of the Holy Spirit who was at work in Jesus confirming his Deity/Identity. Jesus is the ONE and ONLY Savior, the Son of God, who has power over death, sin, demons and hell‼️ There’s no salvation to anyone who CONTINUES to reject, as if it is an unclean thing (ie to blaspheme), the testimony given by the Holy Spirit concerning Jesus. There no other salvation anywhere else. TODAY is the day of salvation only in Jesus! You will not be forgiven or pardoned in this life or in the life to come if you continue to reject (blaspheme) the testimony of the Holy Spirit concerning Jesus Post Reply
