Day 350 What is the unpardonable sin?

What is the unpardonable sin? Hebrews teaches..."It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age, if they fall away, to be brought back to repentance, because to their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace." Is this sin possible for the Christian? No. This sin is of a deliberate nature. (see Hebrews 10:26) God forgives all those who come to Him but those who turn away have no other places to turn for forgiveness. As long as a person has a guilty conscience, they could not have commited this sin. Why? A person who has commited the unpardonable sin has no desire to turn to God and receive forgiveness. This is also known as the "hard heart." The good news is that any who turn to the Lord can receive forgiveness.
