Wow Clyde, you are truly my brother in the Lord and may God bless you. <smile> But right now we do not completely agree and this is why . . .
In Mark 3, Jesus states that, "All sins will be forgiven the man except blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, blasphemy against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven a man either now or in the age to come." All sins? That's means every single sin, that's what Jesus said. So every sin a human can commit will be forgiven except man except that one blasphemy. So we better learn what the one unforgivable sin really is, don't you think?
In Matthew 12, Jesus was casting out demons, meanwhile the Pharisees are saying that he was doing do by Beelzebub, i.e., the devil. If the Holy Spirit was at that same time witnessing in their hearts, "This is my beloved son, hear ye him," and they rejected His irrefutable witness, they indeed blasphemed the Holy Spirit. Scary!
Now in John 3:36 we read, "He that believeth on the son hath life, he that believeth not the son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him." Also scary!
So not believing in Jesus is also unforgivable. But wait a second, blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is the only unforgivable sin. Therefore: Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is rejecting His irrefutable witness in the human heart that Jesus is the Christ. They have to be the same sin, or there will be two sins for which man could not be forgiven and there is only one!
So did that Buddhist in Outer Mongolia, whirling his prayer wheel, or that Hindu snake charmer out in the wilds of the Hindu Kush mountains, neither of whom ever heard of Jesus, blaspheme the Holy Spirit? I don't see how, consequently according to Romans 2, God could save them both without them having any knowledge of all.
