I've never heard a good explanation of Jesus' teaching in Mark 3:28-30, regarding blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. Is there a certain Orthodox teaching about what these verses mean?
I read somewhere once that this unforgiveable sin includes blasphemy against the work of the Spirit. If that is true (?), then since (I think) the Orthodox say that Holy Tradition is the work of the Spirit, could a heterodox person be guilty of this blasphemy if they question (not necessarily attack) Holy Tradition?
I'm really looking for possible answers/comments, not debate, but somehow the question seemed to me to belong in this forum.
