  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Blaspheming in the Holy Spirit.

I always thought that blasphemy of the Holy Spirit was when we deny Christ. I don't have time to look up the Bible verse, but the Holy Spirit is a witness for Christ.

A True Believer cannot commit this sin.
They have been saved, delivered, redeemed.
Only the non-elect can, and do, commit this sin.

I understand it is the act of misrepresenting God, so you are blatantly lying when you say "this is the truth according to God" or even quote a verse in a context that your conscience tells you is wrong, yet you proceed to lie anyway. In this way by lying and expecting people to trust you, you are downright misrepresenting what the holy spirit says, and you can dig yourself into a hole like that if you allow your heart to become hardened.

i think that is a good explanation.

the holy spirit is the spirit of truth. a deliberate misrepresentation of truth to fit your own adjenda is aginst the holy spirit.

i do believe the pharasis jesus was talking to were fullly conciously followers of satan. i believe the same people do own the federal reserve and are on the verge of getting their New World Order. their anti christ leader will rule from jeruselum. come soon yahshewah!

I thought only believers can commit this sin??

I am terrified over committing this too.

I kinda thought it was ignoring the holy spirit at work. I think that we sometimes ignore god at work in the spirit often just dismissing it as consequence.

Mmm, I'm not so sure that is true. Many Christians backslide to the point of ignoring the Holy Spirit, but they are one day forgiven. I think it is quite a bit more serious the matter of blaspheming the Holy Spirit rather than a period of disbelief, it has a lot to do with a hardened heart to the point where one will suggest the Holy Spirit isn't so holy.

MATTHEW 12:22-32

22 Then one was brought to Him who was demon-possessed, blind and mute; and He healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw. 23 And all the multitudes were amazed and said, “Could this be the Son of David?”
24 Now when the Pharisees heard it they said, “This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub,the ruler of the demons.”
25 But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. 26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? 27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges. 28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you. 29 Or how can one enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house. 30 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad.31 “Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. 32 Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.

It is important to understand that the Holy Spirit is God manifested spiritually since Jesus as God has gone "to prepare a place for you", as He said. So, any statements or judgments against the work of the Holy Spirit is "blasphemy" against God, such as stated in Matthew 12.

I have asked that question to my pastors and they say that blaspheming the Holy Spirit is when you look at the work of the Spirit and you say "that is not God". for example if you were to look at iris ministries and say that that is not God that would be blasphemy. But do not worry about weather or not you have committed blasphemy. it is a heart issue and only God knows the heart. If you are worried about weather or not you have Blasphemed the Holy Spirit than you have done no such thing. Remember Paul killed christians before he came to Christ and he is the one who invented the term christian and wrote most of the new testement.

JESUS CHRIST IS MY LORD AND SAVIOR.
JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD.
JESUS CHRIST HAS COME TO EARTH IN THE FLESH, DIED AND ROSE FROM THE DEAD.
JESUS CHRIST IS SEATED AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE FATHER.
ALL GLORY BE TO THE COMING KING.
