Matthew 12:22-32, "A demon-possessed man who was blind and mute was brought to Jesus, and Jesus healed him so he could both talk and see.
"All the people were astonished and said, 'Could this be the Son pf David?' But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, 'It is only the devil the price of demons that He drives out demons.'
"Jesus knew their thoughts and said, 'Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined; every house divided against itself will not stand. If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How can his kingdom stand? If I drive out the demons by Satan, by whom do your people drive them out? They will be your judges! I drive them out by the Spirit of GOD, then the kingdom of GOD has come upon you... He who is not with Me is against Me and he who does not gather with Me, scatters. Every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven , BUT the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit WILL NOT be forgiven in this age or in the age to come!' "
The deliberate refusal to acknowledge GOD's power in Christ Jesus is the unpardonable sin. He is the only way to eternal salvation. He paid the price for mankind's sins, but each individual person has to accept that free gift of eternal salvation by coming to Jesus, asking forgiveness of their sins. Have you come to Christ? You can know, for when you in true and sincere heart do ask the LORD to forgive you, His Holy Spirit will confirm this in you!
I've been looking for pictures to go with my video Bible study of the characters of the Lord of the Rings. I needed one of Jesus picking on the Jewish leaders. The first place I went had this long article about how what we have been told in the Bible is false. I really want to send him a Cold Case Christianity DVD. One of J. Warner Wallace's points is there is an unbroken chain of custody from the death and resurrection of Jesus going teacher to student for several generations with the apostle john being the first teacher. The evidence is so powerful, that if you were to destroy every Bible you would still know everything we know about Jesus because these students kept relaying the same story. I say all of that to say thank you. After being on his site, coming here was like finding a rich, fertile oasis. May God bless you and be honor by this site.
