Any sin, except for speaking against the Holy Ghost, can be forgiven if one repents and believes. But one person may repent of unbelief, but another person not repent. Unbelief is forgivable. Paul was forgiven. But do you think those who do not repent of their unbelief will be forgiven.
The word 'speak' has a meaning. The word 'blaspheme' has a meaning. Neither word means 'unbelief' or 'reject the truth' or 'die in a state of unforgiveness.

You're response to what I have been saying isn't making any sense. I've been saying that to blaspheme the Holy Spirit one must invert goodness and evil and attribute the works of the Spirit to Satan. Another poster has been trying to claim that the Heb. 6 passage is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit but I have repeatedly said their error is against Christ, not the Holy Spirit. They are making a doctrinal error. If everyone who did that was unforgiven, it is likely none of us would be saved eg. limited atonement v. unlimited atonement, OSAS v. non-OSAS. etc. In order to commit the sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit one must attribute His work as coming from the source of evil. Christ's sacrifice was the Son's work and nor was it from any evil source so the poster is wrong all around imo.
Of course the other matter to contend with is, anyone who thinks they may have blasphemed the Spirit has most certainly not because the reason they cannot be forgiven is because they are oblivious to seeing themselves as being wrong.

The issue in Hebrews 6 is not being able to be renewed to __repentance_. The individual's heart issue doesn't allow that individual to come back. The sin being committed there... unbelief... is in the 'forgivable' category, since unbelievers repent and are forgiven for their unbelief.
One doesn't have to say anything specific about the Holy Spirit to deny faith in Christ.

I don't follow the point you are making after 'but I have repeatedly.' I believe I am disagreeing with the same poster, btw.
Where does scripture teach that? Isn't it possible that a Pharisee that made that accusation against Christ in Matthew 12 could have admitted that he was wrong about something else, even some area of sin? Why should we add doctrine that is not in the passage?
