In Matthew 12:31-32, Jesus says to the Pharisees,
"Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come" (NKJV, emphasis added).

Thing is, most fanatic Christians have already done this and for way less money.

you may undergo in ideas who stored on putting catch inquiries to J'esus lots of the time: the Pharisees. each and every so often, Herodians and Sadducees too. you spot, they did not have self belief J'esus grew to become right into a rabbi which grew to become right into a identify of honor given to a instructor of the Mosaic regulation. They knew that Christ claimed the surprising to interpret the regulation (see Mt. 5:20-40 8) yet as he wasn't certainly one of their sect (in the sense of non secular college or team) they does not concede this kind of top to Him. So the identify "rabbi" given him by potential of the criminal expert/Pharisees is insincere. Now, to respond to your question, you may undergo in ideas that the Holy Spirit is the third Divine individual of the Trinity. "finally, all sin is against G-d. Sin against the Holy Spirit is extreme because of the fact the Holy Spirit is the guy who convicts us of sin. Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit won't be able to be forgiven. Conviction preceded repentance. without the convicting Spirit, we can't discover forgiveness. Blasphemy against the Spirit is the willful and blatant act of attributing to devil that that's clearly the artwork of the Holy Spirit. This adverse sin occurs whilst a individual consciously rejects the reality, believing devil extremely than G-d. G-d won't forgive such blatant rebellion. the character of the difficulty is debated. Has the middle grow to be so hardened the guy can not distinguish sturdy from evil or can not repent? Or does G-d of His very own unfastened determination close the door to any feasible repentance? some have tried to supply a catalog of "unforgivable" sins, however the recent testomony does not record the different sins previous forgiveness. We could be careful to not stick to the doctrine in the incorrect way. people who sense certainly one of those craving for salvation may well be useful the Spirit keeps to artwork of their lives. the place the Spirit works, grace for forgiveness is available. some human beings in desperation or anger shake a fist and ***** to G-d. they are basically repeating the strikes of lots of the psalmists. they are actually not accountable of the unforgivable sin. The doctrine of the unforgivable sin is a warning against overconfidence and non secular blindness, not a non everlasting wrongdoing." * and you do not pick a level to respond to this, you basically pick a sturdy remark of the Gospel.

No.
If I wanted a million dollars I would forge a life insurance policy in your name, make the payments for a couple of years and then kill you.
That way I could get the million tax free, repent and still go to heaven.
Aren't you glad I am not really interested in being a millionaire?

It is The Holy Spirit that keeps us off the path of perdition that we so justly deserve. Keeping us from the love of money. When your on that road of destruction how will a million dollars make you happy?

I'm not a Christian but I would NEVER EVER commit a sin for something as stupid as money. No amount of money is worth getting into sin

What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet lose his soul for all eternity.
The riches on earth are child's play compared to the riches that await us in heaven.

Money is just numbers, a pile of metal or paper - depending on how you look at it. I wouldn't do it for all the money in the world.

No.
You'd have to offer something worth more than eternal life.
