Thank you for a truly inspiring and uplifting sermon.

Dear Mr Thomas Thank you for your reassuring response . You mentioned that the blasphemy of the the Holy Spirit is an obstinate attitude of the heart. My question is does this obstinate attitude make the sin unpardonable because the person is never willing to repent rather than God being unwilling to forgive? Is it because the means that God uses to convict of sin and to see the need for a Saviour is being rejected being rejected that means that there is nothing else God can do to bring them to salvation? Kind regards Stephen Racz

Dear Mr Thomas Just wanted to thank you for for responding to my question. Your response was really most helpful to me. Many years ago the WCG published a booklet about this very subject but with regards to this sin being mentioned in the gospels the writer made it clear that it was a premeditated willful act or utterance rather than an attitude and the expression of it so that booklet was not helpful at all and it troubled me for quite some time so thank you for your reassuring explanation. It makes a lot more sense Kind regards Stephen Racz

Dear Mr Sexton Thank you for your message on the unpardonable sin. I just want to be clear. In Matt 12:32 and Mark 3:29 it appears that the unpardonable sin is an act or saying that once committed no matter how sorry we are God will not forgive. Can you just confirm that this is not what the scriptures are saying but it is an attitude and the expression of it and the reason for it not being pardon is not because God is unwilling to forgive but because the person is unwilling to repent. You see I am fearful as a Christian that I could have committed this sin by repeated acts not based on anything I remember doing but the fear I may have done without remembering at the time. It has caused me enormous distress and anxiety and regrettably led to blasphemous thoughts based on that anxiety. I have gone to God and repented had I done these things I am afraid of and repented of my thoughts and deeply desire a relationship with God and Jesus Christ. Would I have been forgiven? Is the unpardonable sin a sin or series of sins committed which one truly repents of but God doesnt forgive or something much more ongoing which the person is never sorry for ie an ongoing rejection?

Dear Mr. Thomas Just wanted to thank you for your detailed explanation which has now made everything clear and understood. With kind regards Stephen Racz

Dear Mr Ashley Thank you for your insightful sermons on the Exodus. I have a question. You mentioned that in Hebrew the word ALL doesn't quite mean the same as it does in English in relation to all the waters in Egypt being turned to blood. That there were some places the Egyptians could still find water. This sounds feasible otherwise everyone would have perished without it. So how do we apply the word ALL to other scriptures in the OT and NT where in states that God forgives ALL of our iniquities, ALL of our sins. Are there are different Hebrew and Greek words being used in this context to describe something where the word means ALL in terms of without exception or all compassing as we understand in English apply here. Otherwise it would leave people fearful that all does not mean all only most and that not all of our sins are forgivable.I hope you understand my meaning. Your answer would be much appreciated. Kind regards Stephen Racz
