Whilst questions abound concerning the matter of the 'unforgivable sin' the context should guide us in our conclusions. First of all, consider what grace there is that 'every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven'! Only then are we ready to consider the sin which will not be forgiven – rejecting the work and grace of God and attributing it to the evil one. Some may fear the very notion of an 'unforgivable sin', when in fact Jesus' teaching here should bring great comfort – by the Spirit of God he is able to bind the strong man and deliver us from kingdom of darkness. The very kingdom of God has come upon us indeed!
