Douglas, this is a personal warning to you, offered to you with much love:

In the book I cited a few posts ago (House and Carle, Doctrine Twisting) these co-authors cited Ephesians 4:30 a few times and then they begin to close out a chapter with a chilling warning...

But before I cite them, allow me to quote a verse I brought up much earlier in this thread...Isaiah 63:10:

Yet they rebelled and grieved his Holy Spirit.

So he turned and became their enemy and HE HIMSELF fought against them.

Douglas, why would you not only militate against the very language of the Scriptures, but also place yourself in such spiritual jeopardy of having the Holy Spirit fight against you?

House and Carle, p. 119:

"One can lie to and grieve only a person. Neither can one blaspheme a force. No radar beam has ever received--or is likely to receive--insults. [authors here are referencing Heb. 10:29] Only a very holy and sensitive person can be blasphemed: the Holy Spirit can be blasphemed and grieved to such a degree that Scripture declared the sin unforgivable (Mt. 12:31; Mk 3:29). Those are chilling prospects."

Indeed, well done with these high quality posts Colofornian!

Explain please where Doug KC blasphemed against the Holy Spirit?
