First of all making an honest mistake is not MISREPRESENTING.
Second of all, I didn't make a mistake.
it was about a discussion you were having with Desertsrose about how many times the Kingdom is spoken of in the N.T.
I said you were wrong in the point you made.
So now you're ACCUSING me of something, as you usually do because you're such a NICE PERSON.
So I guess I can say that you are
1. MISREPRESENTING ME
2. LYING ABOUT ME ( you do love to call persons a liar, don't you)
And, in a kind of a sort of a way you're aggrandizing yourself by pointing out that I was wrong.
WHICH OF COURSE I WASN'T.
I'm ALWAYS RIGHT.
Dontcha hate it?

If unbelief is not included in blasphemy, which is denying the work of God, then you must think it forgivable, for you say unbelievers are incapable of blasphemy. This frankly makes no sense to me. If one is not covered by the shed righteous blood of Jesus through faith, their names are blotted out of the Lamb's book of life, for they have not been born again of the Holy Spirit of God, and they pass into the second death.
Blasphemy Against the Holy Spirit
Overt, verbal, and conscious repudiation of the fact that God is at work in
Jesus Christ accomplishing his designs through the power of the Holy Spirit.

I'm sorry you dislike me so much that you think Desertsrose was PURPOSEFULLY trying to help me out.
Do you not know any theology at all?
I've told you that I'm not talking about how many times the word Kingdom is mentioned.
You failed to understand because the hatred you feel is Greater than the LOVE you should feel.
Does it make you happy to say that I was wrong?
Of course I wasn't.
So does it make you really upset when I'm right?
Gosh. That would mean you're upset all the time because I'm Always right.
You do need a lot of prayer Magenta. You have very negative feelings in you.
Can't Jesus get them out of you?
You keep telling me that it's HIM doing the works in you.
So can't He do THIS particular work?
I'm sorry, but seriously you do have very messed up theology and very messed up human feelings.
Messed up theology will lead to messed up feelings.
This is because you don't really understand how to work with the Holy Spirit.
You don't really understand HOW the Holy Spirit works in you.
The REASON you don't understand it is because of that messed up theology you have about Christ doing everything for you and YOU have to do NOTHING.
I'm not posting any verses either.
Why don't you sit yourself down and start reading the N.T. with Mathew and work your way through.
As you do this, pay attention to what JESUS says in the 4 gospels.
Do you have a red letter edition? Good.
Pay special attention to what God says. Remember, JESUS IS GOD.
Don't even go to church for a couple of weeks.
Just do this.
It would really help you a lot. But I know you won't do it because you feel you already know everything.
If you already really did know everything, you'd be a sweeter person. And I don't mean that you'd post prettier nonsense. I do hope you realize how hypocritical that is.
So, do as you wish.
I feel badly for you.

If you go back to the first Passover, you will see that those not covered by the blood of the lamb experienced the death that was promised to them for their unbelief (that was the death of the first born in that case). As with many things in the Tanakh, this was a foreshadowing of Christ's shedding of blood for the forgiveness of sins, which was carried out at Passover. If one rejects Christ, they are not covered by His righteous blood. It is only through acceptance of His propitiatory sacrifice that we can be reconciled to God, and born again of the Spirit of God.
Don't you worry none about Allen and God.
I doubt very much he has anything to learn from anyone here.
Just because he's quiet means nothing.
He knows more than most here.
No need to help him along...
If he said something to the person...he knew exactly what he was doing.
But your thought is appreciated, I'm sure.

well also I was speaking on to blaspheme the holy spirit one would have to "believe in" and "accept the holy spirit then want rid of it at some point,which I can only guess would result in death,because the spirit is their life at that point,
just read through romans 1 and 2 and what I can gather is that those who choose "willingly" unbelief,are inexcusable concerning their sins so I can only conclude that this would be unforgivable as well,so I suppose speaking of the holy spirit as the one unforgivable sin is more of a clear warning to not blaspheme the holy spirit where as unbelief is to be understood in the same regard but not as a more foolish thing to do than blaspheming the holy spirit because it would mean the individual became a total hypocrite when wanting rid of the holy spirit(which is really bizarre to do)!
