I'm a new christian and was reading the bible, when I came across this passage: In the New Testament (Mark 3:29) in which Jesus says "But he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation"
What exactly is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit? I'm pretty sure I have done that... I have rejected God in the past and said I hated Him years ago, when I was mad... . I have also thought against the bible, thinking things from there might of not happened that way and also thought that God was not all loving... I had an awful way of thinking, and a hate filled heart years ago... I had only read a small part of the bible and did not really understand it or know God's love for us..I was turning all of that around and was trying to build a relationship with God, until I saw Mark 3:29 today... I feel terrible and I have asked for forgiveness for all of that before, but according to Mark 3:29, I will never be forgiven?
Beloved,
luke12:10-12 And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven. 11 And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say: 12 For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
Hebrews6:4-6 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.
Jesus specifically states that
"all sins" can be forgiven through His blood – including any blasphemies against either Himself or anyone else. But the one sin that He and His Father will not forgive is a direct blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. Here is the verse:
"Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter; but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation" – because they said, "He has an unclean spirit." (Mark 3:28-30)
Then Jesus once more comes down with the hammer and says:
"Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come." (Matthew 12:31-32)
Without question, this statement being made by Jesus is one of the most dire and extreme warnings He has ever given. He is literally telling us that there is one specific sin that will never, ever be forgiven – and that one sin is a direct, blasphemous attack against the Holy Spirit Himself.
Jesus even says that you can speak a word directly against Him and that you can still be forgiven – but He will not forgive anyone who will directly attack the Holy Spirit.
So what exactly is Jesus meaning when He talks about someone who is directly
"blaspheming" the Holy Spirit?
The word
"blaspheme" in Webster’s dictionary means to
"speak irreverently or profanely of or to God, to curse or revile." Another part of their definition says
"any remark or action held to be irreverent or disrespectful."
Many of the different
Bible Dictionaries describe blasphemy as
"insulting, cursing, lacking reverence for God, claiming deity."
Remember, God is perfect – we are not!
Another Thing I want to say Our Father has a 7,000 year Plan!! 6,000 years he has gave to Satan.
When Jesus Comes back on 777 he will teach the true Doctrine if Christianty for a Thousand years to All that have been Born of Flesh,Water,Woman.
The Fallen Angels and Satan re-fused this "to be Born of Flesh, Water,Woman" After this Thousand Year teaching
When Satan is turned back out on us is when this Unpardonable Sin Happens not now Son, "But Pray to our Father and Stay clear from the unpardonable Sin...
"In His Service"
