To me, the Bible is like the Sun, not that it helps me see, but that by it, it I can see the world in a better light.

Evolution explains very little, it is not even an isolated observable physical process. It is like trying to explain that a baser form of ethics is what allows living beings to survive but that same ethics of the strong prey upon the weak to adapt for survival would lead to every human calamity of slavery, rape, murderer, and tribal war. Ethics that transcend natural survival are required for more harmonious forms of justice, civility, and social cohesion.

You do realize each and every phenomenon (object, event, substance, entity, process, system, or being) is constantly evolving (perpetual trransition), right?

[@boltrooktwo]

@@theoskeptomai2535 You have little hard evidence of your universal evolution theory. The body plans of any living organism has never been shown to change or evolve, all human beings have the same body plan with variations only in some few boundaries. Maladies and aberrations exist but a healthy body has the same plan and hasn’t changed, that is the research of epigenetics. A human will always give birth to a human, a horse gives birth to a horse, and a slug gives birth to a slug. Also the inner workings of the tiny machinery in a cell are similar throughout living things but only run on different genetic data to adapt to their programmed purpose. It is faulty logic to say that the statue of Adonis, a great work of art, has its whole origin as a quarry of stone as it is to say man’s origin is from an ape, the artistry and complexity take talent and mind to form such detail.

[@brotherdamien1804]

@Our Savior Your Catholic upbringing is so odd that from what I know of Catholicism, it isn't even Catholic. You couldn't pray to God directly? God had no connection with you? Yikes. It is possible that your family may have been part of a heretical Catholic cult. But to your point--remember that reading and interpreting are different. Catholics were always allowed to read the Bible, but interpretation was left to the Church alone. Why? Because the Catholic Church feared that personal interpretation would divide the Church. As we see, this is a well-founded fear, for it indeed has happened, but not to Catholics, rather to Protestants. Just look what divergent personal interpretation has done in dividing the Protestant Church. And it is unavoidable, for wherever there are opposing interpretations, there are contradictions, and where there are contradictions, there is certainly error and division. So, you say you "learned the truth for yourself directly from the Bible." May I ask, how do you know with certainty that your interpretation of Truth contains no errors?

[@brotherdamien1804]

@Our Savior All I wanted to know is how you can be sure that your interpretation of Scripture is correct when other people, also believing they are inspired by God to interpret Scripture, interpret it differently.

@Our Savior My friend, please edit before posting. For example "sheriffs...Chris or 3...Weatherby. skin of the dead. speed of the dead." I cannot know what these mean. Anyway, so you're saying that your interpretation of Scripture is right because "the Holy Spirit was leading you" based on your humility. My problem is that the Protestant world has been hopelessly divided because of this very practice. Today there are tens of thousands of Christian sects because so many people claim to have "humbly allowed" God to show them the Truth in Scripture. So if everyone is claiming to be humbly led to Truth by "God in the Bible," yet these same people present contradictory interpretations, isn't it true that someone must be wrong? Who? Could it be you? Is it at least possible?

You can be a hypocrite and be forgiven. Lord Jesus Christ already paid for the sins of the whole world, that whosoever believes will not perish but have eternal life. If you believe that Lord Jesus Christ lived, died, and rose again to pay for your sins you ARE forgiven and justified, for it all, INCLUDING sinful hypocrisy. It is not you who lives, but Christ. The old man passes away, and the new man is born. Our flesh cannot stop sinning, because it's corrupted. Now when we believe in Lord Jesus Christ to pay for our sins and save us, we are given the Holy Spirit, and He comes and dwells on us and seals us so that our soul is preserved unto eternity. I think of this as the Holy Spirit enveloping our entire soul, and covering us, so that our spirit and our flesh are separated by a barrier of sorts, like a paper in an envelope inside an envelope, so that we don't face the penalty for sin. It is why we can be imputed with Lord Jesus Christ righteousness, why we are counted as good trees, why we will nor perish, why we are justified, why we cannot sin. The Holy Spirit, He covers us so that our sins do not kill or condemn us. He is our armor against sin and death. And then when the time comes for Christ to return, our bodies will die and be made new and glorified, bodies without the curse of sin, incorruptible and eternal.

Very few believers understand that a person cannot possibly be born again until they have allowed the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ to transform them into someone who no longer sins. Scripture makes it very clear that anyone who sins belongs to the devil and anyone who is born of God does not and cannot sin. Now even though God commanded us not to sin there are billions in this world who foolishly believe that they can never stop sinning. So realize that the vast majority of believers certainly are not Christians because most have never allowed the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ to sanctify their hearts in God’s one and only truth in order to overcome their sins. And just because someone may claim to believe in Jesus Christ does not make that person a Christian either since even sinful demons also believe in Jesus Christ. “Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭3:4‬ ‭NKJV “And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:23‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “HE WHO SINS IS OF THE DEVIL, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. WHOEVER HAS BEEN BORN OF GOD DOES NOT SIN, for His seed remains in him; AND HE CANNOT SIN, because he has been born of God.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭3:8-9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭12:2‬ ‭ESV Now the main reason that the majority of believers are so lost and deceived is because they have chosen to seek their knowledge of God from the many false religions and preachers of this fallen world instead of learning God’s truth directly from Jesus Himself. Many of them have clearly overlooked the fact that Jesus is alive and He commanded us to follow Him. Through His sacrifice on the cross Jesus gave us the ability to hear God’s voice and learn God’s truth directly from Him through His Holy Spirit that will dwell inside anyone who truly understands and believes. Most believers are not able to hear the voice of Jesus Christ though and this is because they did not comprehend the importance behind testing the Spirits as commanded in 1 John 4 while others do not even understand how it is done. “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.” ‭‭John‬ ‭10:27‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.” ‭‭John‬ ‭16:7‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “If you love Me, keep My commandments. And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever- the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.” ‭‭John‬ ‭14:15-18‬ ‭NKJV‬ “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭4:1-3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Scripture relates that Jesus is the same always and that He will be with us until the end of age. Jesus did not sin of course and Jesus never got sick because sin and sickness is strictly of the devil and since Jesus never changes this is why Jesus still heals even today. Scripture clearly relates that sin will bring sickness into our lives but scripture also reveals how it is possible for a believer to stop sinning. Anyone who is truly being guided by the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ is no longer living by the desires of their sinful flesh and they cannot possible sin nor can they ever get sick since they are now a child who has born with the Spirit of God. So realize that anyone who truly possesses the Holy Spirit and who is truly allowing the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ to guide them in their life cannot possibly sin since they are now being guided by the Spirit of God who is Holy and pure and who cannot sin. “We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭5:18‬ ‭NKJV “But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a multitude being in that place. Afterward Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, “See, you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you.” ‭‭John‬ ‭5:13-14‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ God does not lie so Jesus would have never instructed the man that He had healed to sin no more if it were impossible for the man to stop sinning. Plus what this above scripture is clearly revealing is how it was the man’s sin that brought the devils afflictions into his life. This is why Jesus warned him that if he did not stop sinning then a worse affliction could come upon him. “Fools, because of their transgression, And because of their iniquities, were afflicted.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭107:17‬ ‭NKJV‬ ‬Know what this scripture means? First transgression, it means an act that goes against a rule, a law or a code of conduct. Next iniquity, it means a wicked act or thing, sin. Finally, affliction, it means something that causes persistent pain or suffering. So this scripture is saying that you are a fool if you do not follow God’s laws and commands and you go and sin because you will then have pain, suffering and sickness. Now in Deuteronomy 28 God related His blessings for those who would obey Him and the curses that will occur on anyone who chooses to live in sin and disobedience. Every type of sickness is definitely listed as a curse so any sickness in your life clearly reveals that you are a sinner who lacks knowledge of scripture and you are disobeying God. “If you do not carefully observe all the words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and awesome name, THE Lord YOUR GOD, then the LORD will bring upon you and your descendants extraordinary plagues-great and prolonged plagues-and serious and prolonged sicknesses. Moreover He will bring back on you all the diseases of Egypt, of which you were afraid, and they shall cling to you. Also EVERY SICKNESS and every plague, which is not written in this Book of the Law, will the LORD bring upon you until you are destroyed.” ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭28:58-61‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Next, God made it very clear that He would remove sickness and disease from anyone who did not sin and who would obey what He commanded in scripture. This is why the devil can no longer put his afflictions on anyone who is truly born of God since they are now someone who is being guided by God’s Holy Spirit and they can no longer sin. “And said, “If you diligently heed the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the LORD who heals you.” ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭15:26‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “So you shall serve the LORD your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take sickness away from the midst of you. No one shall suffer miscarriage or be barren in your land; I will fulfill the number of your days.” ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭23:25-26‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “And the LORD will take away from you all sickness, and will afflict you with none of the terrible diseases of Egypt which you have known, but will lay them on all those who hate you.” ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭7:15‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Many do not realize that there are no scriptures that ever relate that a sinner belongs to God or that a sinner is a child of God. There are no scriptures that ever relate that a believer will always sin or that a believer can never stop sinning. There are no scriptures that ever relate that sickness would be a normal part of this life or that a Christian would possess sickness in their life. There is only one truth from God, one and one alone and the rest is all lies that the deceived chose to believe. Sadly, more then 95% of believers are destined to perish since they continue in a life of ignorance and sin and this is mainly because they did not understand how to allow the Holy Spirit to sanctify their hearts in God’s one and only truth. “And Isaiah cries out concerning Israel: “Though the number of the sons of Israel be as the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them will be saved.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭9:27‬ ‭ESV In closing, I can certainly testify to what I have revealed in this message because I am someone who has overcome sin and sickness in this lifetime by allowing the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ to sanctify my heart in God’s one and only truth through testing the Spirits. So if you do not possess these same blessings in your own life then you certainly are not being guided by the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ and you are definitely someone who is deceived in their beliefs.

[@mikerutkowski7265]

@@jessebryant9233 And you just proved that you do possess the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ and that the devil owns your ignorant and sinful soul. Yes, Jesus was the only person who was born without sin but this certainly does not mean that a true believer can never stop sinning. Anyone who truly possesses the Holy Spirit possesses the same power that raised Jesus from the dead and they can overcome any obstacle, especially sin. Jesus did not sin nor did Jesus ever get sick and if you are someone who is truly being guided by His Holy Spirit then it would be impossible for you to sin or to get sick as well. So your comment certainly proved that you are an unbelieving child of Satan who would not believe that overcoming sin through the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ is possible. “Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.” ‭‭Mark‬ ‭9:23‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.” ‭‭I Peter‬ ‭4:1-2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin. Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him. Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭3:4-9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:21-23‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ So scripture clearly states that whoever sins does not know God so that is certainly you. Whoever sins is of the devil and that is also certainly you! Whoever abides in God and is born of God cannot sin and does not sin so this is a child of God like me! Scripture also relates that sin is lawlessness and Jesus clearly stated that anyone who practices lawlessness shall not enter the kingdom of God. Anyone who believes that they can never stop sinning is simply a deceived believer who does not understand a thing in regards to scripture or the blessing that Jesus provided for all of mankind. So It is quite evident and clear that you do not understand that we are all born in sin and that God commanded us to overcome our sinful life so that we would then start doing His will by living a holy and righteous life through His Holy Spirit. This is why we needed a savior to teach us how to stop sinning and this is exactly what Jesus, Peter, Paul and John are relating to us in scripture. Many deceived believers cannot comprehend what scripture is relating and they will often twist verses like 1 John 1:8-10 to try and justify why their wicked souls still sin. “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭1:8-10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ Since we are all born in sin and in ignorance of God’s word and truth John was relating how anyone who claims that they have never sinned at some time in their life is then deceived and they do not understand the truth that is being related in scripture. John was then saying that if we would repent and confess our sins to God then God is faithful to forgive us of our sins and He would then cleanse us from living a sinful and unrighteousness life. John then related that anyone who believes that they have never sinned in this life is then calling God a liar. But nowhere is John ever relating that a believer will always continue to sin or that a believer could never overcome their sins as you children of the devil often desire to believe. The children who live in sin and who belong to the devil often like to use Paul as their justification for their sinful life. These lost souls are so deceived that they cannot comprehend what Paul was relating in scripture and so they often twist the meanings of Romans 3:10, 3:23 and 7. They fail to realize that in Romans 7 Paul was relating how hard it was for him to stop sinning in his previous life since he was living under the law. He then related how he was freed from following his sinful flesh by truly knowing Christ and living through His Spirit. These clueless souls are clearly overlooking how Paul related that he had died to sin and that he was no longer a slave to sin in Romans 6 and they also overlook how Paul related that if you continue to live by your sinful flesh instead of living through the Spirit then you will certainly die in Romans 8. “For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:5-8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ “So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him. Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him. He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.” ‭‭2 Peter‬ ‭3:14-16‬ ‭NIV‬‬‬ Now in regards to Romans 3:10 Paul is simply relating that none of us are righteous since we are all born in sin and this is why we needed a savior to teach us how to stop sinning. Romans 3:23 is actually stating the same exact thing since it is relating how we are all born in sin and so we all are falling short of the glory of God. Sometimes these children of the devil will even use Romans 6:23 to justify why they sin and they clearly have no idea that this scripture is relating that if you sin then you will eternally die, hence “the wages of sin is death.” Some will even try to use 1 John 2:1-2 to try and justify why they still sin. “My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.” ‭‭I John‬ ‭2:1-2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ In the above scripture John is simply relating that because we all will sin that Jesus is the atonement for our sins and He certainly is not relating that we can never stop sinning. Nowhere are any of these scriptures ever relating that a believer can never stop sinning or that they will always continue to sin though. Anyone who continues to sin certainly does not understand what Jesus related in Matthew 5 and 18 since Jesus clearly stated that we needed to remove whatever part of our flesh that was causing us to sin. Jesus made it very clear that it was better for us to live a life in this world with a maimed body that did not sin then it would be to possess a complete body that still sinned since the person who sinned would then be cast into the hell fire. “If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:29-30‬ ‭NKJV‬ “If your hand or foot causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the everlasting fire. And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭18:8-9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ This is the difference between a believer who is a Christian and a believer who is deceived. A deceived believer thinks that they will always sin and they will always have sickness in their life. A true Christian knows they can never sin nor can they ever get sick since they are living their life exactly “like Christ” through His Holy Spirit. So it is quite evident and quite clear that you are just a deceived believer who fell for the devil’s lies and that is why you reason the way that you do. Your very own words have proven that you do not possess the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ and you are just an unbelieving child of Satan. That is why you still possess sin and sickness in your wicked life since your blinded eyes could not comprehend what scripture is relating and so you remained a sinner whose soul belongs to the devil and you certainly do not belong to God.

Not all sins are equal. That’s a dumb statement. As Jesus states the unforgivable sin is blaspheming the Holy Spirit. It’s unforgivable. Other sins are forgivable, but not blaspheming the Holy Spirit. Also Homosexuality is also a very bad sin, it’s a sin that’s just as bad as the blaspheming The Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ had many apostles as followers such as thief’s, tax collectors, and even a murder like Paul. However not one single apostle or follower was a gay homosexual. Not a single apostle was gay. Their are certain sins worst than others. Even though all sins lead to death, there are some sins worse than others, they are not the same. The foundation of existence was founded on man with woman for completeness, and wholeness! To go against GODs will, and plan is absolute darkness, and opposite of what GOD wants for us. It’s vital for man to be with woman cause if they don’t society will die off. Humanity can not exist if man is with man. Certain sins are absolutely worse than others.

@@paulwilfridhunt read scripture. It clearly talks about blaspheming the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is The Holy Spirit. Jesus is Jesus, Jesus is not The Holy Spirit. Jesus is different than The Holy Spirit. GOD is different than Jesus. That's why Scripture points out 3 in 1. The are separate from each other, but of one Spirit. Read the scripture that reflects and refers to The Holy Spirit, and the blaspheming of The Holy Spirit. It's not about your opinions of how you look at scripture. Its about what the scripture is saying, not your opinion of scripture. You should learn that. The scripture about blaspheming The Holy Spirit was when " Jesus Christ casted out demons of people, and the scribes and pharisees said you cast out demons with The Power of Demons " " Jesus Christ than replied you say I cast out demons with power of demons " The pharisees and scribes were talking about the power that Jesus was using, they were not talking about denying Jesus, they were talking too Jesus about the power he was using to cast out demons... Understand? The next verse Jesus Christ said " you say I cast out demons by demons? A house against itself will not stand " those who blaspheme the The Holy Spirit will never be forgiven." The entire conversation referred to the power of what Jesus was using to cast out demons. They were not talking about denying Jesus. They were saying the demon was the power Jesus was using when Casting out demons... Understand. It's all about the power Jesus was using at the time to cast out demons. The power we all have in us to help us who believe is The Holy Spirit! It what lives in us! As it lived in Jesus when he was Baptized by John, The Holy Spirit is who helps cast out demons, when Jesus had his followers, the Apostles cast out demons or tried to cast out demons in situations where they tried. During those times the Apostles were not anywhere near Jesus they were on their own trying to cast out demons with The Holy Spirit helping them. Understand? Remember if you are ever talking to someone and you use the words " I believe scripture says this " or you say " in my opinion scripture says this " that in itself is you thinking of your own account, and of your own ideas, and anytime I is being used its probably wrong and you shouldn't do it. It not about you, and how you think, its about facts, truth, and what scripture teaches. I do agree with you on the fact that if anyone rejects Jesus and does not believe will be denied by the father cause Jesus Christ is the only way to the Father! I agree with you on that, BUT and or However... The scripture where it talks and is discussed about the blaspheming of The Holy Spirit is all about the power Jesus was using when Casting out demons. The entire conversation between Jesus and the scribes and pharisees were about the power Jesus was using. Remember Jesus is alive at this point talking in person they were not talking about Jesus, they were talking about the power he was using to cast out demons. They literally said " YOU cast out demons by using the POWER OF DEMONS." They didn't call Jesus a demon...They called the power he was using a demon... Understand? If not go read the scripture verse and get back with me. You will see for yourself I hope.

@@paulwilfridhunt yeah dude! I understand that, but the scripture of where it talks about blaspheming The Holy Spirit is all about the power Jesus was using to cast out Spirits, and Yes Jesus is fully man, and fully GOD! And yes their were certainly situations where the pharisees and scribes were denying Jesus as the true don of GOD sent to earth, you are absolutely right on that, the scribes and pharisees constantly were arguing with and about Jesus Christs authority and authenticity of his king ship, but in the case of blaspheming The Holy Spirit by denying the power of GOD being used to cast out demons, at that very time in scripture the conversation is and was about the power Jesus was using to cast out demons. At that very moment it was about actually calling the power Jesus was using to cast out demons a demon, which The Holy Spirit is the power of GOD! Yes Jesus Christ is Holy, absolutely, and GOD is Holy, and Yes The Holy Spirit is of course Holy! But when someone refers to The Holy Spirit, they clearly are talking not about Jesus or GOD, but they are talking about the Holy Spirit. 1. GOD 2. Jesus 3. Holy Spirit Each three are Holy, GOD, and the same spirit, but separate entity forms. The only way to the father is through Jesus Christ! To deny him/Jesus you will not get to Heaven no matter what unless you believe and accept what Jesus did on the cross, and his resurrection! It was The Holy Spirit, GODs power that rose Jesus from the gave! It was The Holy Spirit within Jesus that brought him back to life, it wasn't Jesus power... it was The Holy Spirit power! The same power that the scribes and pharisees denied and called a demon, and Jesus defended The Holy Spirit from the slander of the scribes and pharisees. When Jesus said and was teaching about the blaspheming of The Holy Spirit, he literally at the exact point and moment in time was talking about and referring to " The Holy Spirit " which is the exact name of " The Holy Spirit." He/Jesus literally called The Holy Spirit by name. When Jesus referred to himself, he always called himself " The Son of man ". It is clearly obvious he was referring to The Holy Spirit, not himself when he was talking about blaspheming of The Holy Spirit. It is very dangerous to manipulate scripture, or twist scripture, or to take scripture out of context. As scripture stats nobody should add to scripture or take away from the scripture or the will bring wrath against themselves.

[@SuperRabbidrabbit]

@@paulwilfridhunt Just remember when Jesus referred to himself he always said " Son of Man" he never called himself The Holy Spirit. In that exact moment he referred to the name The Holy Spirit when he was talking about blaspheming The Holy Spirit. Its absolutely clear my friend. 100% clear he was talking about The power he was using to cast out demons " The Holy Spirit " Look up scripture on all the times where it talks about The Holy Spirit. It clearly talks directly about The Holy Spirit. Look up also every time Jesus referred to himself as The Son of Man, it clearly states hes talking about himself not The Holy Spirit. Theirs plenty of times Jesus talked about " The Son of Man " and the scribes and pharisees denying him, which is different in the case of when they were blaspheming The name, and power of " The Holy Spirit " at that exact moment in time when they said your using the POWER of demons to cast out demons referring to that exact moment in time against " The Holy Spirit ". To blaspheme The Holy Spirit is the unforgivable sin talked about at that exact moment in time and point of time. Both are unforgivable sins, BOTH... Both blaspheming The Holy Spirit is an unforgivable sin, & denying Jesus is an unforgivable sin, BOTH are Unforgivable sins that is a absolute, as well as denying GOD himself, so to be technical denying any of the 3 entities are unforgivable sins. Cause in reality you cant believe Jesus Christ and deny GOD. You will not get into heaven, just like believing Jesus but denying the Holy Spirit, and or denying Jesus and believing in GOD. You can not believe one without the other. It is and would be a completely different religion to believe Jesus and not believe The Holy Spirit. That doesn't work or even make sense. It would be a completely different new age religious modern day invited religion. It is absolutely impossible to believe one and none of the other three and think you will be saved. You can believe one without the other 2. Its impossible and completely not Christianity to do so. Granted their are some who believe Jesus and not GOD... that is truly sad. Those individuals will not get in Heaven. To believe Jesus and deny GOD exists is such a foolish statement. Same with Believing GOD and not Jesus, or Believing The Holy Spirit and denying Jesus and or GOD. It is a believe all three or dont scenario. It's a package deal of all three with no exception. You can not believe one and deny the others. It doesn't work like that. If you think you can believe Jesus only, but deny GOD or The Holy Spirit and think you will be saved you have lost your mind, and have alot to learn.
