But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven.
Mark 3:29
BSB
Read Mark 3 in a modern translation BSB
Read the whole chapter (Mark 3)
The sin that is not forgiven
This word has frightened many people. But read what comes before it. Jesus first says that all sins and blasphemies shall be forgiven. And afterwards Mark explains why he said this: because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.
It is about someone who deliberately calls God's work evil, and so keeps the door to forgiveness shut himself. That is why many pastors say: whoever is afraid of having committed this sin has certainly not committed it. A hardened heart doesn't worry about it.
Question for today
Do I dare to believe that my sins can be forgiven?
Prayer
Lord, you say that all sins can be forgiven. Keep my heart soft and open to your Spirit. Amen.
