Re 7087

Having identified the blasphemy of the Holy Ghost, we come immediately to the question, "CAN THIS SIN BE COMMITTED TODAY?"

There are teachers and preachers who answer, "Yes! And some will give illustrations of those who have committed it. I do not believe that it can be committed today. There are several reasons for this conclusion. In the first place, there is no record of it being committed any time after this in the New Testament. In fact, this is the only place in the Bible where we have a record of its being committed. Evidently, the Apostles, after the Saviour went back to Heaven, met and dealt with the committing of all other sins, but there is no record of them dealing with any who had committed this.

Well, isn't that convenient? The one sin that is unforgivable is one that isn't even possible to commit?

And I find it interesting that you dismiss it because it is only shown to have happened once in the NT, yet y'all make a huge deal out of the Good Thief vis-a-vis bpatism. And that only happened once as well.
