I Consider that to be understandable to Every Believer.

It is not a Laughing matter. Jesus said it is the ONE and only Unforgivable Sin.

It is seldom verbal, but always permeated with an Unbelieving Attitude.
You boldly stated that I committed blasphemy. You either support your statement with unmitigated evidence or apologize.

It is extremely sad that he does not understand that he is a sinner such as I. And all you can do make fun of it. How SAD :(.
I called him out for denying he is a sinner. You have your style, I have mine. Does that make you feel better, pussycat?

And you’re right, you are a sinner, and God is not pleased with you whatsoever for falsely accusing one of his faithful (me) for being a blasphemer. Let’s see if you’re man enough to apologize.

O now, lightey, don't talk down about something God has made new! I thought you liked Jesus. Don't make me get my wife on here. She's a huge fan of what God has done.

We all start slaves of sin don't we? God is true!

Whoever sins is a slave of sin and a slave doesn't have a permanent place in the household but a son belongs to it forever. So if the Son sets you free you will be free in deed. ~ Jesus Christ our Lord

Go on, now, you can believe all 3 steps of Psalm 18/2Samuel22. What a transformation! Praise the Lord.

As the Proverb says, "Happy is he who feareth alway." Happy, happy, happy! Might even be the joy of the Lord!
If your happy, I’m happy for you. In the meantime I relate very well with the tax collector mentioned in Luke 18. You obviously relate very well with the Pharisee in the same chapter. Enjoy!

I never said no such thing. Saying that it is not a laughing matter, does not constitute Blasphemy.

Yanno? If people really believed that verse? They would be too busy asking forgiveness for all the mocking and scoffing they do, they wouldn't even have enough time to post up their mocking and scoffing in here!

Just shows ya, or should show many, just how "infiltrated" people claiming to be Christians, have become!

They can't keep sinning this way, and keep expecting God's grace will abound all the more for them!
They just can't!
But, they don't!
So you don’t sin you just mock. Got it

Post #121,037 you boldly stated I committed blasphemy. Until that moment I had an awful lot of love and respect for you but you drew my ire because I don’t take kindly to that kind of garbage. If you were one of these work salvationist bozos I’d brush it off as just more of their blind, arrogant stupidity, but it came from you. Own it!

The law held people in bondage, from which Jesus freed us, but that freedom does not extend to defiling His name or undermining what He has done for us whether in speech, action, or text.

It amounts to a personal assault on the very one who saved us from the deapths of hell.

Post #121,037 you boldly stated I committed blasphemy.
Here's the sentence he wrote in that post:

"Rejecting the LORD, is the most common blaspheming the Holy Spirit, as YOU HAVE JUST committed BLASPHEMY against the WORK of the Holy Spirit."

The way I'm reading that sentence in the context of his entire post, I am not tending to read it to be saying the following:

"Rejecting the LORD, is the most common blaspheming the Holy Spirit, as YOU [PERSONALLY, Lightskin] HAVE JUST committed BLASPHEMY against the WORK of the Holy Spirit."

...but more like the "you" in a more general sense. ['a person' does/has done such and such]

Try to re-read it with the above in view... especially since VCO says he didn't say such a thing about YOU [personally]. I've seen nothing in the thread to have caused him to say such a thing of "you [personally]" so maybe let's take him at his word, that he didn't intend such a thing.


[ (!)...or... is this a purposeful lesson y'all are trying to "get across" about how we should read scripture with the "plural 'y'all'" in mind, where applicable (i.e. WHERE it indeed uses the "plural 'you'"), instead of it saying "you Christian [as an individual]" in places... (??? LOL)]

To say you can do as you like and are always saved is a satanic message.

Luke 3:3-4
He went into all the country around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
As is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet: "A voice of one calling in the desert, 'Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him."

Mark 2:5-7
When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "Son, your sins are forgiven."
Now some teachers of the law were sitting there, thinking to themselves,
"Why does this fellow talk like that? He's blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?"

Being cleansed is testified as the ministry of John, and Jesus.

Luke 1:76-79
And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him, to give his people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins,
because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace."

Of Zechariah and Elizabeth, Johns parents it is written
Luke 1:6 (NET)
They were both righteous in the sight of God, following all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blamelessly.

A theology can contradict Gods revelation. The test is do we change our views and ways to accept Gods ways or insist we are right and scripture is wrong. This is the eternal question, is Christ truly dwelling in us, or are we from a different Kingdom.
Water baptism has never washed away one sin, not has it saved anyone......Get your facts straight about what John was actually doing and what his ministry was about.....

I know you do bro, I know it

but when you keep agreeing with these people, you as much as telling they they are right.

If they get one word wrong, it’s a different gospel. And as Paul said the gospel is no gospel,at all

thats what worries us bro. God bless you In your endeavors,
100% agree....and or BLESSING THEM as some do....totally contrary to the bible!

I love how people post the passage about how we must strive to enter the narrow gate, and few their are that do

then goes on the teach the same gospel most world religion teaches, that our salvation is essentially based on our works and our obedience. and rejects the work of Christ and his obedience as the means of salvation

i am so glad I am part of the (few) and give all glory and credit where it is due, my savior.
Amen....Jesus did say the way is narrow....and MANY LIKE RALPH, CHRIS and a few others here will come before his throne peddling their self saving self sustained fake salvation based upon what they do......

I see, so you do not do a study of all the scriptures.

That is typical of the cults.
You're an idiot.....She studies and knows way more than you pal....and while I am there the above lie you peddled about Us saying we can do as we please and stay saved is a flat lie......not good for one that believes in a self sustained losable salvation!
