The sin which will not be forgiven is the stubborn refusal to heed the Holy Spirit's conviction and accept the forgivenss the Christ offeres. Because the leaders rejected all proofs about Jesus as Messiah, nothing else would be given.

I have two points one in answer to your question and one to send a message 1st point in answer to your question yes I am aware of this fact going to the verse that you quoted Matt 12:31,32 it would seem that to sin against the Holy Spirit is to ascribe to the devil the works of the Holy Spirit . One who attacks directly the source of all grace rejects the source of all salvation. So that makes it morally impossible to ever meet the conditions for absolution. In the fact that both are one in the same; it is impossible to attack one and respect the other as the Word teaches we can't serve two masters . 2nd point I am the one lokking for Bible Study Help check my profile and email me to set-up a time to message each other and start the study if you are still interested

Actually, if you read the entire context of
this subject in Scripture, you will find that this is the only one unforgiveable sin, BUT
in order that it be unforgivable, it must be
done at a specific time appointed, let me explain;
Mark 13 explains how Gods Elect will be delivered up before Antichrist, as a witness against him, and as a testimony for Jesus Christ. It says not to premeditate what you will say, because it is not you, but the Holy Spirit who will speak thru you.
If, at that specifically appointed time and situation, you REFUSE the Holy Spirit from speaking thru you, it is THEN UNFORGIVABLE. Most people don't seem to get that part.
Anyway, have you seen online where some kids have a website where they promote others to do a video where they publically deny the Holy Spirit. Its called "blasphemy challenge".
Besides it being a horrible insult to God,
of which they will pay dearly for sure, THEY
ARE IDIOTS who are unlearned in Bible
Scripture if they think it is unpardonable.
It is forgivable, unless it is at that time I
mentioned. All sin is forgivable except for
that one. (except Murderers cannot find
forgiveness in the flesh; they have to be executed and sent back to God and then they face the victim(s) as well as God).

I am not debating that its a REAL BAD IDEA, though, for sure.

Since the letter J was invented in the 1500's, I don't think you have to worry about Jesus or Jehovah.
The Hebrew letters for YHWH are pronounced Yahuwah. Just as the letters YHWDH are pronounced Yahudah (Judah). Yahuwah means "I was, I am and I will be", or simply "I am". His son's name is Yahushua, litteraly "Yahuwah saves"
Not using the name of Yahuwah, or replacing it with "God" from the pagan Germanic diety "Gott" or with "Lord" which is a faithful translation of the word Ba'al. This replacement of the sacred with the profane is by far a greater sin.
The name and its propper use are very important, I urge you to take the matter seriously and do some research. Chech the preface of your bible to see how they admit the lie, then look to the reference given below.
Did you know what Jehova means in greek and Hebrew? "In his destruction" and "Yah destroys" not a fitting title for the creator of the universe is it?
Jesus means "he is a pig" in latin.
"hail Zues" in Greek.
and "ha soos", the nearest Hebrew to Jesus, means "the horse"
email me if you want more on this.
Yahushua Shalom

Mat 12:31 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.
Mat 12:32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.


It means your sin against Jesus Christ even if you will curse him will be forgiven but do not curse and commit sin against the Holy Ghost because you will never be forgiven.

I think you have a misunderstanding of the verse. It doesn't mean just talking about the Spirit.

It is not that you say somthing about the Spirit of Jehovah that is unpardonable. Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost is not a single offence, but a progressive resistance to truth that results in a final rejection of God's will (Hebrews 10:26, 27). The conscience is seared when a person repeatedly opposes and neglects the impressions of the Holy Spirit until he no longer hears His voice. Therefore, a person who has a haunting fear that he has committed the "unpardonable sin" very likely has not.
All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men." Matthew 12:31.

The Bible clearly says that all kinds of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven. No single act of any kind is the unpardonable sin.

Sounds Contradictory
Yes, it sounds contradictory, but both of the following statements are true:
A. Any and every kind of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven.
B. The blasphemy or sin against the Holy Ghost will not be forgiven.

Jesus Made Both Statements
Jesus made both statements in Matthew 12:31, so there is no error here. To harmonize the statements we must discover the work of the Holy Ghost. By the way, the word "ghost" comes from "ghast", the Old English word for "spirit".
He [the Holy Spirit] will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment." "He will guide you into all truth." John 16:8, 13, NKJV.*

The work of the Holy Spirit is to convict me of sin and to guide me into all truth. The Holy Spirit is God's agency for conversion. Without the Holy Spirit, no one feels sorrow for sin, nor is anyone ever converted.
When convicted of sin by the Holy Spirit, I must confess my sins in order to be forgiven. When I confess them, God not only forgives me but He also miraculously cleanses me from all unrighteousness. God is waiting and ready to forgive me for any and every sin I may commit (Psalms 86:5), but only if I confess and forsake it.

"He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy." Proverbs 28:13.

If I do not confess my sins, Jesus cannot forgive my sins. Thus, any sin that I do not confess is unpardonable until I confess it, because forgiveness always follows confession. It never precedes it.

Terrible Danger of Resisting the Holy Spirit
Resisting the Holy Spirit is terribly dangerous because it so easily leads to rejection of the Holy Spirit, which is the sin God can never forgive. It is passing the point of no return. Since the Holy Spirit is the only agency given to bring me conviction, if I permanently reject Him, my case is thereafter hopeless. This subject is so important that God illustrates and explains it many different ways in Scripture.

The Bible repeatedly states that when I am convicted of sin, I must confess it at once. And when I learn new truth, I must accept it without delay.
A. "As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me." Psalms 18:44.
B. "I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments." Psalms 119:60.
C. "Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation." 2 Corinthians 6:2.
D. "And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptised, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord." Acts 22:16.

God solemnly warns that the Holy Spirit does not indefinitely continue pleading with a person to turn from sin and obey God. God warned the people in Noah's day that His Holy Spirit would not keep pleading with them forever; nor will it today.
"My spirit shall not always strive with man." Genesis 6:3.


Therefore speak I to them in parables: because ... hearing they hear not." Matthew 13:13.

The Holy Spirit stops talking to a person when that individual becomes deaf to His voice. The Bible describes it as hearing, but hearing not. There is no point in setting the alarm on a clock in a deaf person's room. He won't hear it. Likewise, a person can condition himself to not hear an alarm clock ring by repeatedly shutting it off and not getting up. The day finally comes when the alarm goes off and he does not hear it.

Don't Shut Off the Holy Spirit
So it is with the Holy Spirit. If I keep shutting Him off, one day He will speak to me and I will not hear Him. When that day comes, the Spirit sadly turns away from me because I have become deaf to His pleadings. I have passed the point of no return. What a solemn, disquieting warning against resisting the Spirit's voice!

The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. The way of the wicked is as darkness." Proverbs 4:18, 19. "Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you." John 12:35.

The Bible rule is that when the Holy Spirit brings me new light or conviction of sin, I must act at once--obey without delay. If I obey and walk in the light as I receive it, God will continue giving me light. If I refuse, even the light that I have will go out, and I will be left in darkness. The darkness that comes from a persistent and final refusal to follow light is the result of rejecting the Spirit, and it leaves me without hope.
if I steadfastly refuse to confess and forsake any sin, I will eventually become deaf to the Holy Spirit's pleading and thus pass the point of no return. Following are a few Bible examples:

A. Judas' unpardonable sin was covetousness (John 12:6). Why? Was it because God could not forgive it? No! It became unpardonable only because Judas refused to listen to the Holy Spirit and confess his sin of covetousness. Eventually he became deaf to the Spirit's voice.

B. Lucifer's unpardonable sins were pride and self-exaltation (Isaiah 14:12-14). God can forgive these sins. Lucifer could have been pardoned and cleansed, but he refused to listen until he could no longer hear the Spirit's voice.

C. The Pharisees' unpardonable sin was refusal to accept Jesus as the Messiah (Mark 3:22-30). They were convinced repeatedly with deep, heartfelt conviction that Jesus was the Messiah--the Son of the living God of heaven. But they hardened their hearts and stubbornly refused to accept Him as Saviour and Lord. Finally they grew deaf to the Spirit's voice. Then one day, after another great miracle by Jesus, the Pharisees told the multitude that Jesus received His power from the devil. Christ at once told them that attributing His miracle-working power to the devil indicated they had passed the point of no return and had blasphemed the Holy Ghost. God could have, and joyfully would have, forgiven them. But they refused until they were stone deaf to the Holy Spirit and could no longer be reached.

I Cannot Choose the Consequences
When the Spirit makes His appeal, I can choose to respond or refuse, but I cannot choose the consequences. They are fixed. If I consistently respond, I will become like Jesus. The Holy Spirit will seal, or mark, me in the forehead as a child of God (Revelation 7:2, 3), and thus assure me of a place in God's heavenly kingdom. If I persistently refuse to respond, I will grieve the Holy Spirit away and He will leave me forever, thus sealing my doom. What a solemn warning against ignoring the Holy Spirit.

After King David had committed a terrible double sin of adultery and murder, what anguished prayer did he pray?Take not thy holy spirit from me." Psalms 51:11.

He pleaded with God not to take the Holy Spirit away from him. Why? Because David knew if the Holy Spirit left him, he was doomed from that moment. He knew that only the Holy Spirit could lead him to repentance and restoration, and he trembled at the thought of becoming deaf to His voice. The Bible tells us in another place that God finally left Ephraim alone because he was joined to his idols (Hosea 4:17) and would not listen to the Spirit. He had become spiritually deaf. The most tragic thing that can happen to any person is for God to have to turn away and leave him alone. Don't let it happen to you.

Quench not the Spirit." 1 Thessalonians 5:19
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned [lost] who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12.

What powerful, shocking words! God says that those who refuse to receive the truth and conviction brought by the Holy Spirit will (after the Spirit departs from them) receive a strong delusion to believe that error is truth. Talk about a sobering thought!
