Holy Spirit testifies of. Study the Word of God carefully. Who was Jesus speaking to when He spoke of the unpardonable sin? He was speaking to the Pharisees, who continually rejected Him as their Savior and even accused Him of having an unclean spirit. Jesus’ response was, “Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven…but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation” (Mark 3:28–29). Why did He say that? The next verse tells us that it is “because they said, ‘He has an unclean spirit.’”
Therefore, in the context of the Bible, Jesus was warning the Pharisees to stop committing the sin of rejecting Him, the only Savior, and depending on their own efforts to be saved. This clearly does not apply to the believer. You see, in reading the Bible, it is important to note who the words were spoken to and to ascertain if the words are relevant for the believer. In this case, Jesus was speaking to the Pharisees who had rejected Him and who even made claims that He had an unclean spirit. Imagine their audacity!
As for you, my friend, have full assurance in your heart that it is impossible for a believer to commit the unpardonable sin. Today’s Scripture shows us that a believer (who is in Christ) has already received the gift of eternal life and will never be “subject to eternal condemnation.”
Beloved, do not be deceived. Because we are in His Son, Jesus Christ, we will never experience God’s anger or rejection. Be anchored and secure in the Father’s love and your complete acceptance in Christ. His finished work on the cross has wiped out your entire life’s sins—past, present, and future—once and for all, bar none!

Your Breakthrough Is Not Contingent on Your Obedience
Today’s Scripture
But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ .
2 C ORINTHIANS 11:3
T here is a lot of confusion and wrong believing in the church today, and the repercussions of deception that surrounds the simplicity of the gospel of grace that is in Christ can be devastating. I received this heartfelt praise report from Robin in Michigan, whose experience highlights what can happen when you don’t understand the difference between the old and new covenants.
After I became a born-again Christian three years ago, I was studying the Gospels at Bible college and read about the “unpardonable sin.” Immediately, a very negative thought about the Holy Spirit entered my mind. I felt as though I had died on the inside and my mind was immediately bombarded with thoughts of, “You’ve done it now! There is NO pardon or forgiveness for what you have just done!”
I felt short of breath and sick to my stomach. All throughout the night, I was inundated with crazy, condemning thoughts that I was no longer saved. The first thought I had when I woke up the next morning was, “You’re going to hell. You had your chance to make it to heaven but you blew
