By Dennis Schmidt 2/2007

RETURN TO THE: BIBLE PAPERS HOME PAGE

This paper discusses several unpardonable sins presented in God's word. All scriptures are from the King James' version Bible.

INDUCTIVE COMMENTS:

THEME: Men who commit the unpardonable sin called good evil, evil good, and Jesus evil with complete knowledge of their deeds. They saw the miracles, but rejected them knowing Jesus is from the kingdom of God. Paul did not see Jesus miracles, and he blasphemed in unbelief.

Mark 3:22 "And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils."

Mark 3:28-30 "Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies where with soever they shall blaspheme: {29} But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation: {30} Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit."

PURPOSE: They called good evil and Jesus evil: This sin is accounted to those who did it with knowledge. They saw the miracles, but rejected them knowing Jesus is from the kingdom of God. Paul did not see Jesus miracles. When Paul blasphemed, he did it in unbelief.

1 Timothy 1:13 "Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did <it> ignorantly in unbelief." Paul did his sin in ignorance.

KEY VERSE: They Jesus was a good man from God because of the miracles and His teachings.

Matthew 12:22-31 "Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw. {23) And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David? {24} But when the Pharisees heard <it>, they said, This <fellow> doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils. {25} And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: {26} And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand? {27} And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast <them> out? therefore they shall be your judges. {28} But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you. {29} Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house. {30} He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad. {31} Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy <against> the <Holy> Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men."

John 3:1-2 "There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: {2} The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him." They Jesus was a good man from God because of the miracles and His teachings.

WHO: God mainly by Bible authors Matthew, Luke, John, and Paul

TO WHOM: Elected Christians

WHAT: They called good evil and Jesus evil:

Matthew 12:33-34 "Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. {34} O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh."

Acts 10:38 "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him."

This sin is accounted to those who did it with knowledge. They saw the miracles, but rejected, knowing Jesus is from the kingdom of God. Paul did not see Jesus miracles, blasphemed in unbelief.

1 Timothy 1:13 "Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did <it> ignorantly in unbelief."

WHY: They called good evil and Jesus evil:

John 16:8-13 "And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: {9} Of sin, because they believe not on me; {10} Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; {11} Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. {12} I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. {13} Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, <that> shall he speak: and he will show you things to come."

WAY: The sin is in Mark which explains it to be saying Jesus is evil.

Mark 3:22 "And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils."

Mark 3:28-30 "Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: {29} But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation: {30} Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit."

The same account in Luke states He is the kingdom of God. Those that committed the sin had no doubt about Jesus being of God.

Luke 11:15 "But some of them said, He casteth out devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils."

Luke 11:20 "But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you."

Luke 11:23 "He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth."

WHEREAS: The third unpardonable sin is a departing from the faith.

1 Timothy 4:1 "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;"

Hebrews 3:9 "When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years."

Hebrews 3:12 "Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God."

Hebrews 6:4-6 "For <it is> impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, {5} And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, {6} If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put <him> to an open shame."

Hebrews 10:26 "For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, {27} But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. {28} He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: {29} Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant,wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?"

An example could be Judas Iscariot (Matthew 26:24 and 27:4-5)

2 Peter 2:20-22 "For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. {21} For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known <it>, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. {22} But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog <is> turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire."

God punishment for sin can be more severe, for a similar sin, during various dispensational periods (such as with Israel's first King Saul or when Church first started).

Acts 5:3 "But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back <part> of the price of the land?"

Acts 5:5 "And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.

1 Corinthians 11:29-30 "For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body. {30} For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep."

WHERE: Earth

WHEN: All time periods

WHILE: The first unpardonable sin is to die without ever receiving Jesus.

Romans 10:13 "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." If they don't call upon Jesus means they are lost.

John 3:36 "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." Does not believe equals spiritually dead.

WAIT: The fourth unpardonable sin is to receive the mark of the beast and worship him in the End Times – Day of the Lord.

Revelation 13:16 "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:"

God does give warning and knowledge of the results of the sin of worship the Anti-Christ beast whose number will be 666.

Revelation 14:9-11 "And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive <his> mark in his forehead, or in his hand, {10} The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: {11} And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name."

Revelation 19:20 "And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone."

Revelation 20:4 "And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and <I saw> the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received <his> mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years."

There is no hope for a person who truly commits the unpardonable sin. Pray should not be made to God for that person.

1 John 5:16 "If any man see his brother sin a sin <which is> not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it."

That person conscience would be seared and would curse God or want nothing to do with God. God would send them evil spirit (King Saul 1 Samuel 16:14-15) or reprobate mind (maybe Judas).

1 Timothy 4:2 "Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;" Depart faith: see 1 Tim 4:1

Romans 1:28 "And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;"

PAPER OUTLINE:

I) ONE WHO DOES NOT CALL UPON THE LORD DURING THEIR LIFE:

II) SIN AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT (BLASPHEMY AGAINST THE HOLY GHOST):

III) THEY CALLED GOOD EVIL AND JESUS EVIL:

IV) FALLS AWAY OR DEPART FROM THE FAITH (APOSTATIZE):

V) MARK OF THE BEAST:

I) ONE WHO DOES NOT CALL UPON THE LORD DURING THEIR LIFE:

The first unpardonable sin is to die without ever receiving Jesus.

See my paper: "What is a Born-Again & How to Become One?" for more information on this subject.

See my paper: "True Gospel for Salvation by the Imputed Righteousness of Jesus" for more information on this subject.

Romans 10:13 "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." If they don't call upon Jesus means they are lost.

II) SIN AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT (BLASPHEMY AGAINST THE HOLY GHOST):

The second unpardonable sin is to understand and see God's (Jesus) perfect good works (miracles) and call him evil.

See my paper: "Triunity - Father, Son, & Holy Spirit" for more information on this subject.

See my paper: "Godhead Relationship" for more information on this subject.

III) THEY CALLED GOOD EVIL AND JESUS EVIL:

See my paper: "Apostasy" for more information on this subject.

See my paper:, "Born with Sin/Father is Devil (Prior to Rebirth)" for more information on this subject.

The sin is in Mark which explains it to be saying Jesus is evil.

Mark 3:22 "And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils."

Mark 3:28-30 "Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: {29} But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation: {30} Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit."

The same account in Luke states He is the kingdom of God. Those that committed the sin had no doubt about Jesus being of God.

Luke 11:15 "But some of them said, He casteth out devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils."

Luke 11:20 "But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you."

Luke 11:23 "He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth."

Acts 10:38 "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him."

John 3:1-2 "There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: {2} The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him."

This sin is accounted to those who did it with knowledge. They saw the miracles, but rejected, knowing Jesus is from the kingdom of God. Paul did not see Jesus miracles, blasphemed in unbelief.

1 Timothy 1:13 "Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did <it> ignorantly in unbelief."

IV) FALLS AWAY OR DEPART FROM THE FAITH (APOSTATIZE):

The third unpardonable sin is a departing from the faith.

See my paper: "Presevation and perservance of the Elect" for more information on this subject.

1 Timothy 4:1 "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;"

Hebrews 3:9 "When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years."

Hebrews 3:12 "Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God."

An example could be Judas Iscariot (Matthew 26:24 and 27:4-5)

God punishment for sin can be more severe, for a similar sin, during various dispensational periods (such as with Israel's first King Saul or when Church first started).

Acts 5:3 "But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back <part> of the price of the land?"

Acts 5:5 "And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.

V) MARK OF THE BEAST:

The fourth unpardonable sin is to receive the mark of the beast and worship him.

See my paper: "End Times Events - Day of the Lord" for more information on this subject.

Revelation 13:16 "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:"

God does give warning and knowledge of the results of the sin.

See my paper: "Antichrist" for more information on this subject.

There is no hope for a person who truly commits the unpardonable sin. Pray should not be made to God for that person.

That person conscience would be seared and would curse God or want nothing to do with God. God would send them evil spirit (King Saul 1 Samuel 16:14-15) or reprobate mind (maybe Judas).

1 Timothy 4:2 "Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;" Depart faith: see 1 Tim 4:1

Romans 1:28 "And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;"
