DOCTRINE OF THE UNPARDONABLE SIN

 

A.  This is the one sin Jesus Christ could not and did not die for on the cross, Jn 3:18, 36.  This sin is the rejection of Christ and His work on the cross.

 

B.  This sin is related to the convicting ministry of the Holy Spirit, Gen 6:3; Jn 16:7-11; Heb 10:29.

 

C.  Rejection of Christ is called "sin," Jn 16:9.

 

D.  Synonyms for the unpardonable sin.

            1.  The willful sin, Heb 10:26.

            2.  Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, Mt 12:31.

            3.  Resistance of the Holy Spirit, Acts 7:51.

            4.  Insulting the Holy Spirit, Heb 10:29.

 

E.  Those who are under the unpardonable sin consider the Gospel foolishness, 1 Cor 1:18, 2:14.

 

F.  This sin is characterized by strong delusion, 2 Thes 2:11-12.

 

G.  This sin has its own reversionism, 2 Pet 2:19-22.
