All sin will be forgiven except sin against the Holy Spirit.

 This is a solemn and deeply important truth spoken by Jesus Himself. It calls for reverence, understanding, and assurance for the concerned heart. Here is a reflection grounded in Scripture.

The Unforgivable Sin

You have spoken a hard saying, Lord,

A warning that echoes from Your word:

“Every sin will be forgiven…

except the sin against the Holy Spirit.”

“Truly I tell you, people can be forgiven all their sins and every slander they utter, but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; they are guilty of an eternal sin.”(Mark 3:28-29)

This is not a sin of weakness, failure, or doubt,

Not the sins that,in anguish, we pour out.

It is not a moment of rage or a bitter word said

In a time of deep pain or a heart full of dread.

The sin against the Spirit, as the teachers explain,

Is thefinal, defiant, eternal refusal of grace.

It is to look at the very work of God—clear and true—

And to call it the work of hell,through and through.

It is to see the Light and insist it is night,

And to choose,forever, to flee from the Light.

If you fear you have committed it, you almost certainly have not.

For the one who has,feels no remorse, seeks no forgiveness,

Has no desire for God,and hardens in willfulness.

Your trembling concern is the Spirit’s own plea,

Drawing you still to the foot of the tree.

So come, bring your sins—all of them—here.

The blood of the Lamb makes His mercy clear.

The Spirit convicts us to lead us to life,

Not to accuse us of this eternal strife.

All other sin finds its pardon in Christ.

This is the hope,the glorious price.

Do not dwell in the fear of a sin you won’t commit,

But rest in the grace that will never quit.

Thank You, Jesus, for a forgiveness so vast,

That covers my future,my present, my past.

And thank You,Spirit, for drawing me near—

Your very work is my comfort here.

Amen.
