"Truly I say to you, all sins shall be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter; but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin" (because they were saying, 'He has an unclean spirit.')
 
Hi John, and Slade. One can read Mark's parenthetical statement in more than one way. He may be saying that this is the only way that one can blaspheme the Holy Spirit, or he may being giving an explanation of how indeed they did blaspheme the Holy Spirit, theirs being one of numerous ways this could happen. Taking into view the other statements in the N.T., some of which I have mentioned, I tend to think Mark is doing the latter.
 
Thanks and Blessings,
 
Bill

Please pay close attention to the last sentence of Marcus 3:22-30. Yeshua tells us what blasphemy against the Spirit of the Holy One is. Now my question... Is this kind of sin that can be committed only by those who SEE THE MIRACLES OF YESHUA AND CLAIM THEY ARE DONE BY HASATAN?
