The Real Unforgiveable Sin?

I've recently come across this: http://news.wckkkk.org/thesin.htm (Copy and Paste it into your Address Bar if the Link fails)http://news.wckkkk.org/thesin.htm

Does it hold any truth?

No. There are a few elements of truth mixed in to make a particular point. But is an emotional appeal. Some of us do believe there is an unforgivable sin, a “sin unto death” and that would be turning your back on God and remaining defiant in that posture until death.



Ask yourself how many times Jesus and the disciples are depicted together talking or behaving the way the writer does or suggests we should. Rarely do we see emotional excitement being shown by our Lord, righteous anger at the temple is the one exception that comes to mind. Nor to we see Him using language that inflamed or excited people except for His enemies. Be at least very spectacle of people that do this today.

As for the racism behind that article and the suggestion that all races should remain pure, there is no evidence of that in the Bible. We do see stories of wicked groups of people and other people then told to avoid “mixing” with them. But that is the same as saying avoid temptation, avoid evil. There are also examples of mixed marriages where nothing is said about it being a mixed marriage. One of Noah sons is thought to have been married to someone outside his own people.

People are people, marrying is one thing we do. In making the choice, how well that other person can help you serve God should be more important to you than what they look like. Naturally our bodies are designed to use physical attraction, but that should not be your primary guide. Sometimes beauty really is only skin-deep and what is underneath might be very ugly.

Blaspheme of the Holy spirit is the only unpardanable sin. If anyone with the power of God before their eyes declares it to be the work of the devil shows a condition of heart beyond divine illumination.

Well, which SIN you think is unforgivable ?

Read 'Manifesto' I think that's awesome.

After coming to a knowledge of God's power, wisdom, love you turn your back and say it is not God, it is something else, anything else, but not God. It is spurning the Spirit who sealed you into the body of Christ. It is saying you will no longer heed the Spirit of Christ.

Basically, you trod the blood of Christ under your feet and say that all that he has given (his Spirit in you and on you) is a fraud. That is what the elders said to Jesus, that it is the power of Satan at work through him, that prompted Jesus to make the unforgivevable sin comment.

Those who know the truth, then turn away from the truth, they become apostates.

Absolutely not. And reading the White Supremacy garbage in that piece of trash made my blood boil, and I'm Caucasian. That is one of the worst examples of eisegesis (reading meanings and intent into the words that are not there) I've ever seen.

Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is defined very specifically by Jesus as knowingly calling the work of the Holy Spirit to be the work of Satan. The Scribes and Pharisees accused Jesus of casting out demons by the power of the prince of demons, Satan himself. Jesus pronounced their judgment right then and there, saying that they never have forgiveness, in this world or the next, not only for those particular Scribes and Pharisees, but for anyone who sins in the same manner. I do not believe a true Christian will commit this sin, even in ignorance. Unbelievers can, however. Unbelievers can see enough of the power of God, when manifested, to know that it is God. If they then call the manifestation of that power to be the work of the devil, they have committed that sin, and their fate is set.

I personally am very cautious about judging the source of so-called miracles and manifestations of power, reserving judgment because I know that I don't know how God may choose to work, and knowing that He does manifest His power in this day and age, having experienced it myself. God works through imperfect vessels, and it's wrong to judge the source by the vessel it comes through. Jesus, when asked whether He was the Messiah, the "coming one" answered by saying, "See for yourself! The blind see, the lame walk, the dead are raised. When you see these things, realize that Kingdom of God has come near to you." His point? Judge the works themselves, not the vessel.

There are other powers at work in the world that seem miraculous. It would be a mistake to believe they are from God. There needs to be a discerning of what spirit/Spirit is at work. The unbeliever cannot commit the unpardonable sin. Only those who have a knowledge of God's ways and who know the Spirit of God can commit the unpardonable sin. (Hebrews 6:4-8) This is later manifested by willfully sinning. For them there is no longer any sacrifice for their sin.(Hebrews 10:26,27) They are apostates of the faith.

I wouldn't give any credence to what the KKK have to say on anything. The unforgiveable sin, in my opinion, is total rejection of God unto death...an eternal decision to desert God entirely.Rob

I think to blas. (cant spell it) is to have the spirit come to you and you turn it down. That can be changed till the monment you die, which it then becomes unforgivable.

 

[ghs1994]

The unforgivable sin is the blatant attributing of the Holy Sprit's work to the devil. This sin is beyond grace. One must obviously have a knowledge of the things Christ did as did the Pharisees at the time. To attribute the works of the Holy Spirit in someone's life, Christ or not, to the devil would be an eternal mistake.

For Christ said " and whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him; but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. Matthew 12:32

I don't know yet that I believe this sin can happen today. There is much scriptural evidence that shows it can. Romans 1:18-32 tells us that there are those in this world who know God but did not glorify Him (verse 21), they knew His wrath (verse 18) and they deceived themselves by changing His Word (verse 25). But worst of all, God gave them over to their sinfulness and nurtured it that they would be given over to a reprobate (which is defined as one who is predestined to damnation) mind (verse 28). There are many today who know God and shake their tiny little fist at Him as though He was nothing. Those who choose this do so with all knowledge of what they are doing, even though they really don't. They know and they will be condemned, but it's God's righteous judgment, not mine. I can't say for sure who God has condemned, but I know I'm to minister to everyone.

James 1:20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

 

[Hello There]

1. I believe the Unpardonable sin can be committed by Non-Believers also....
and why do I say this?

whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him

The key word is whosoever

People seem to think that Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is rejecting the Holy Spirit Unto Death or commiting Apostasy...but once again it says

whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven

This time the key word is "Speaketh"
The unforgivable sin is also mentioned in the other books of the Gospel.

Because they said "He has an unclean Spirit"

Once again the key word is "said.

Now I know this topic has droven many people crazy and has driven them into having repetitive blasphemous thoughts (I've been through it myself) but that is nowhere near the Unforgivable sin because this Unforgivable sin needs to be done with a heart full of hatred or maybe unbelief.

I'm not saying that Jesus' death on the cross isn't enought to cover it, I am just saying that it won't be forgiven rather than can't
It should be called "The Sin that will not be forgiven"

All sins and blasphemies may be be forgiven
