This statement is in contradiction to the Word of the Lord given here:The blasphemy of the H.S. (unpardonable sin) was committed by the pharisees who saw Jesus miracles and attributed them to beelzebub. Jesus is no longer walking this earth performing miracles in person and that sin can no longer be committed today. The unforgiveable sin cannot be committed today.
John 14:
12 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also;
and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. (promise for today,
by the Comforter, or Holy Spirit)
13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do,
that the Father may be glorified in the Son. (promise for today, personally verified)
14 If you ask anything in My name, I will do. (promise for today)
15 If you love Me, keep My commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, (the Holy Spirit, the Comforter)
that He may abide with you forever— (promise for today, personally verified)
17 the Spirit of truth, (the Holy Spirit, the Comforter)
whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him;
but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. (personally verified)
18 I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you. (promise for today by the Comforter, verified)
19 A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me.
Because I live, you will live also. (promise for today, everlasting life)
20 At that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. (today, verified)
21 He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me.
And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and
manifest Myself to him. (promise for today, personally verified)
22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us,
and not to the world?
23 Jesus answered and said to him, If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word;
and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.
(promise for today, personally verified and fulfilled by the promised Holy Spirit, present today)
24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine
but the Father’s who sent Me. (this statement can clearly be applied to the "kingdom divided
prophecy" under discussion from Matthew 12:25-37)
25 These things I have spoken to you while being present with you.
26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name,
He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things
that I said to you.
Possibly the most wonderful promise and role the Holy Spirit plays in our present
lives. The Holy Spirit speaks to us, confirming every word ever spoken by Christ.
Anyone who would deny this and speak against this gift, and accuse a believer of
speaking by a devil, and not the Comforter, would be blaspheming the Holy Spirit.
There are divisions within the Kingdom of God in Christ for many reasons. Divisions
over the role of the Holy Spirit in the activities of the church are most serious, as they
will, as promised and prophesied by Christ, result in desolation for that division.
Matthew 12:25 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.
This complete passage, through to verse 37 is the topic for discussion.
Is the word of Christ the spirit of prophecy?
Can divisions within the body of Christ stand if they are based on believing in
the ministry of the Holy Spirit?
Will there be a falling away?
When judgment begins within the church, will love not be final standard?
Is that love of Christ based on the Holy Spirit's presence?
Matthew 24:
10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another.
11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.
12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.
13 But he who endures to the end shall be saved.
14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness
to all the nations, and then the end will come.
