Blasphemy Against the Holy Spirit

A severe warning about hardened, malicious attribution.

Jesus warns of a profound hardness: seeing God's work and naming it evil, a state that resists repentance.

Scripture

Matthew 12:31-32 Mark 3:28-30 Luke 12:10
Matthew 12:31-32

31 Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.

32 Whoever 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, neither in this age, nor in that which is to come.

Mark 3:28-30

28 Most certainly I tell you, all sins of the descendants of man will be forgiven, including their blasphemies with which they may blaspheme;

29 but whoever may blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin"

30 --because they said, "He has an unclean spirit."

Luke 12:10

10 Everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but those who blaspheme against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
