UNPARDONABLE SIN

UNPARDONABLE SIN

      What did our good Lord mean by 'blasphemy against the Holy Spirit'? Would he include the 'cruelty by psychopathic bullies towards the human spirit' in this category?


      Truly I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter, but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin.

(Mark 3:39)

  Thomas Leonard It's saying that Jesus doesn't forgive everyone, His death on the Cross therefore only redeemed the sins of those he wanted to forgive. He didn't want to forgive those who'd 'blasphemed against the Holy Spirit' We need to further interpet exactly what he meant by that. It is one of the riddles, which, like parables, he has left us to try to decipher. 'Those with ears to hear let them hear. Those with eyes to see let them see' He used his parables to confuse the Pharisees

      
  For example, Christians who abuse children may believe that they're forgiven in God's eyes, when that may well not be the case.
