[QUOTE="BrownFlush, post: 6083383, member: 65823"] When Jesus walked on the earth, to speak evil of Him , to reject Him as the Messiah and even to kill Him could be forgiven. To speak with abuse and contempt about the Holy Spirit, to attribute the power of the Holy Spirit to Satan, and to reject the witness of the Holy Spirit (His power to do the miraculous that was given to Jesus and the Apostles) so to prove that "Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God" (John 20:30, 31), was a sin that would never be forgiven. The reason for this was that there would be no other witness given to cause them to accept Jesus, and repent of their sins. Having rejected the final witness, no other witness was coming to "convict" them "in respect of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment," and they would not repent. Without repentance there is no forgiveness (Luke 13:5) It's possible to commit this sin still today Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit happens when one has viewed all the evidence that the Holy Spirit has revealed ( the Bible) and rejects that evidence as being false and of man or Satan. With no other evidence left to give, and no more coming, it has been "once for all delivered" (Jude 3), there is nothing to convince us or convict us and cause us to repent. There will be no forgiveness for this rejection today because nothing else is coming to convince you. [/QUOTE]
