Chad...why dont you think it is possible to blaspheme against the Holy Spirit when the Spirit is still with us to day.....Couldn't someone say that somebody filled with the Spirit has a evil spirit in them and commit blasphemy???

Anyone can say whatever they want, it means nothing when it stands up to what Scripture says. So, its now "why do you think...", Its what Scripture says. Basically, its rather common sense that GOD hates the devil and hates evil, therefore evil cannot dwell in the same place as GOD, the Holy Spirit.

Psalm 5

Give ear to my words, O LORD; *
consider my meditation.
Hearken to my cry for help, my King and my God, *
for I make my prayer to you.
In the morning, LORD, you hear my voice; *
early in the morning I make my appeal and watch for you.
For you are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness, *
and evil cannot dwell with you.
Braggarts cannot stand in your sight; *
you hate all those who work wickedness.
You destroy those who speak lies; *
the bloodthirsty and deceitful, O LORD, you abhor.
But as for me, through the greatness of your mercy I will go into your house; *
I will bow down toward your holy temple in awe of you.

Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness,
because of those who lie in wait for me; *
make your way straight before me.
For there is no truth in their mouth; *
there is destruction in their heart;
Their throat is an open grave; *
they flatter with their tongue.
Declare them guilty, O God; *
let them fall, because of their schemes.
Because of their many transgressions cast them out, *
for they have rebelled against you.
But all who take refuge in you will be glad; *
they will sing out their joy for ever.
You will shelter them, *
so that those who love your Name may exult in you.
For you, O LORD, will bless the righteous; *
you will defend them with your favor as with a shield.

John 14:16-18
16And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, 17even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you. 18"I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.

Romans 8:7-9
For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot. Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him

Galatians 5:17
For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do.

Amen brother Dan.

One thing to think about brother Eagle:

Why would a perfect Holy Spirit would want to dwell in the temple of one who is committing blasphemy against Him? He would not. Blasphemy is the unpardonable sin, the ultimate dead end rejection of the Holy Spirit.

Brother Chad - thank you - sometimes we forget the holiness of the Psalms - the glory they give to God and the comfort we receive from them.It is a beautiful sharing and I am grateful to you for posting it.

That's true and when christians use the word of God in vain and that's blasphemy of the word of the Living God and also when we dont fear God and realise that God is pure, with no sin , holy and we dont even have time to think of the wonderful things he has done but always focussing on problems and blaming God for the situation and that's also a blasphem. Some people do also critise the move of Holy spirit and that's because they havent experience that and that's why they dont know the supernatural move of God in people lives !

blasphemy is still alive and well in our times.
We too have the HOLY GHOST just like our LORD ,but just not as much.
Still if we say?Our brother or sister has a devil .when in fact,they have the HOLY GHOST ? We too have basphemed against the HOLY GHOST!
We must be careful how we judge others,in this matter!

But did you know?We can have more of the HOLY GHOST ? Simply by asking!

Luk 11:13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

I love HIM so VERY MUCH!
He longs to teach and guide us and led us.
If we will hear HIM and ASK HIM?

As you say our God is the God of the "so much more" Amen! We, that is all of us need, require this "so much more" and "this spake He of the Spirit"

Let us keep our eyes upon Jesus, and what He has to offer. Other things will then fall away

Blasphemy or not we must never judge others - the Lord clearly tells us this many times in scripture. I agree with you and we must always remember "Let he who has not sinned cast the first stone" Very few if anyone can cast the first stone. In this week of agony at His sufferings and rejoicing as He triumphs over evil let us all pray for those who have strayed from the flock that they may return to the Good Shepherd.
