4. Faith leaders who accused Jesus of being in league with Satan
---- this is when Christ gives us the unforgiveable sin-----
---- wait, there's an unforgivable yes? Yep
Mark 3:22-30 (NIV)
22 And the teachers of the law who came down from Jerusalem said, "He is possessed by Beelzebub! By the prince of demons he is driving out demons."
23 So Jesus called them and spoke to them in parables: "How can Satan drive out Satan? If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. And if Satan opposes himself and is divided, he cannot stand; his end has come.
In fact, no one can enter a strong man's house and carry off his possessions unless he first ties up the strong man. Then he can rob his house.
I tell you the truth, all the sins and blasphemies of men will be forgiven them.
But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; he is guilty of an eternal sin." He said this because they were saying, "He has an evil spirit."
---did you catch it?
The Leaders are saying Christ is in league with Satan....working together. In order words, they are DENYING the working and indwelling of the Holy Spirt in Jesus....
So---in other words saying what Christ was doing and saying was of the Devil--- They willfully chose to reject!!!!!
the Unforgivable Sin is to willfully reject the work of the Holy Spirit through Christ which is then also rejecting the work and words of Christ for your life!!!
So Friends---if you wonder IF you have committed this sin and are asking Jesus about it----you have not...
But if you say, "God I want it my way and not your way....God I don't believe your Word and reject You and your Son."
-----well then you are living in the unforgivable sin.....
---unless you change you heart.
