What would you say is the worst sin, the “unpardonable” sin? Murder? How about incest? What about rape? If you guessed any of these your answer is incorrect. The only sin that is “unpardonable” is to reject Christ as your Savior. Certainly, to blasphemy the Holy Spirit brings on serious condemnation. God allows us escape from our sins through His grace, and when we confess the seriousness of our sin to Him asking Him to forgive us, we are forgiven! In (1 John 1:17) we read; “The blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.” Without Jesus’ sacrifice for our sins we would be lost for eternity! Heaven forbid!
Rejecting Jesus vs. blaspheming the Holy Spirit – here is how the Bible explains this unpardonable sin; they are one and the same. Jesus is God, God is Jesus, and the Holy Spirit is also God. God uses the Holy Spirit to draw us nearer to Him. When we reject the Holy Spirit (blasphemy) we are denying God’s love and salvation. We then remain separated from God! Jesus makes it possible for us to be one with God. For our forgiveness of sin and our eternal salvation we must accept Jesus Christ. Jesus said we must be “born again.” We are born again when we ask Him to come into our hearts proclaiming our belief in all that He is and has done for us. Salvation is so easy!
