Episode 198: What Is the Unpardonable Sin?


Listen Later

The word "pardon" means to relieve someone of the burden of their legal consequences. In a Christological understanding of this concept, Christ shed his blood and rose from the dead in order to suffer in our stead and relieve us of the consequences of hell (1 Cor. 15:1-4, Ro. 6:23, Ro. 10:9-10, Col. 1:13-14) . In his grace and mercy, he pardoned our sin (Eph. 2:8-9, Ro. 11:6). Now, in some Christian circles, there are some that hold to the idea that there is a sin that is so terrible that it is deemed unpardonable. They believe that to commit this sin will cause you to lose your salvation or perhaps prohibit you from ever receiving it. The problem is, among those that believe in the unpardonable sin, they can’t all agree on what it is, which makes it even scarier. Its ambiguity makes it feel like you are in a constant state of danger - walking through a minefield at night, hoping you don’t misstep because it might cost your eternity. This is obviously a topic with serious repercussions, so we have to know what the Bible is saying on this subject. To help us better understand what the Bible says about the unpardonable sin, we have invited Dr. Chris Best, missiology instructor to have a conversation with the provost of Living Faith Bible Institute, Brandon Briscoe, on this important topic regarding biblical soteriology.
