Matthew 12:31
To understand the implications here, one must understand the true nature of sin. Sin is not simply that which is morally incorrect. It is not simply that which is taboo or against cultural mores. It is not simply unethical and poor choices. Sin is an affront to God Almighty. The definition of sin is anything that God dislikes. If he says it is sin, it is sin. Moving forward with this definition, this verse makes more sense.
Jesus is saying that God will make a way for people to be forgiven, through Christ himself. However, rejecting Christ is also a sin. Thus, because those who reject Christ cannot be said to accept him in faith,he is not their Savior and never shall be. So, this sin, a miss-identification of the Spirit of Christ, who is the Holy Spirit, is unpardonable. There is no plan for the forgiveness and redemption of those who will willfully reject the Lord Jesus Christ.
Bible Reading: Leviticus 8:1-10:20
Scripture Memory: 1 John 2:21 “I have not written unto you because you know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.“
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for Jesus! It is amazing that their are people in this world that will reject him. Oh Father, it is so wonderful to be a part of Your plan to get the Truth of Christ to this world. You intend for people to accept Christ as he is preached by Your children. This is so wise! You know that those who are proud will reject the message with the messenger. Whereas, You know that the humble will accept the Truth, no matter how weak the messenger may be. You are wise, Father. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
Prayer Requests: Pray for a lady who has a skin condition.
