[Re: unforgivable sin:] My own personal sense . . . 1. Attributing [?emphatically?] to satan what is Holy Spirit’s work, doings. 2. Tenaciously persistently doing #1 [?&/or cursing Holy Spirit and/or His doings?] with bone marrow hostility toward God and Holy Spirit. 3. Hardened, seered conscience resulting in “guiltless” attitude—in terms of FEELINGS of guilt—about doing 1 & 2.

Yeah, I guess I was trying to figure out if Calvin was saying this could be done by knowledge without faith or not. I.e., does such a thing exist? If "yes" then was their knowledge somehow special such that a non-believer could not be in that boat today? I'm not sure, but I think Calvin would say yes, there was something special about that knowledge. Otherwise, this sin could be committed all the time today.
