If I were translating this feeling of an impenitent sin onto my own lifes inventory, the following sins would likely feature among my core, though the notion of impenitence by a forgiving God is unconscionable and something that I cannot embrace in my faith life. I do believe God can forgive all sins, provided that the sinner is truly contrite and has repented of his or her offense. A person who has committed an unforgivable sin does not desire forgiveness, does not want the love of God, or does not even entertain thoughts of God in his or her mind. I am not sure if we will ever know whether a person has committed a spoken sin in their lives, but we can know this: If we have believed in Jesus for eternal life, we have already responded favorably to the Spirit working in our lives, and therefore, the opportunity for committing an unforgivable sin is gone.
One variant on this theory is that speak is committed when people ascribe to Satan the works of the Holy Ghost. A fourth perspective is that an impenatable sin is knowingly and maliciously rejecting a witness about Jesus by denying that Spirit. While the context really helps us to see the speech, it must have been something other than the rejection of the Messias and speaking slander about the Messias, since Jesus says these things are to forgive men, but it is not speaking slander about the Spirit. They are saying if God is doing things through the Holy Ghost, but others are saying that those things are coming from Satan, that is speech.
Blasphemy against the Spirit is more than just some particular sin, or cursing God at the time of anger or sorrow. I say unto you, Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven the people, but the blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven the people. Truly, I say unto you, every sin shall be forgiven children of men, even all that they utter, but anyone who blasphemes against the Holy Ghost shall never have any pardon, but shall have eternal guilt.
If you accept the glorious offer of Gods forgiveness, admit your sins, and promise in faith to surrender your life to God, you are born again. You can be saved from the penalties of sin, then be free to walk in joyous obedience to His will, as you repent and turn to Our Savior, Jesus Christ. Without a belief in Jesus, at the time we die, we go to a permanent alienation from God in the Lake of Fire, suffering an eternity of conscious punishment for our sins.
We must understand that sin is mostly committed against God, but that it is also done in violation of others who are made in the image of God. Animals who kill humans are killed, not in retribution for sin, but because they destroy the image of God. As a part of the curse, animals turned on humanity and one another, and many survived only by violence and bloodshed. The animals did not commit a sin. The world of animals is cursed, not for its sins, but for the fact that sin, by nature, has wide-ranging consequences.
Animals cannot sin God, so they need no way to get Gods forgiveness. Animals are innocent in their sinfulness. Animals do not have spirits, no moral responsibilities, and no eternal destiny, and thus are not held responsible for rights and wrongs. Animals are incapable of sin, since they were not created as an independent moral agent. Crypticide disrupts the most fundamental dignity of human persons, and thus negates the presence of God in our broken world.
God has built wonders in animals, and they are designed to point mankind toward God as the greatest and sole sovereign. These humans need to learn that God loves animals, that we are meant to honor and utilize them for good. It is true that humans are more valuable than the average small bird, but Jesus does not say animals are of no value to God.
By virtue of being created in the image of God, we humans are unique and special from the rest of creation, but this does not mean the rest of creation has no value to God, or that Gods pleasure is indifferent. Christians are supposed to be clean-hearted, animal or no-animal, we are not supposed to mistreat pets and other animals.
No such provisions are made for animals, which indicates, once more, that they have no immortal souls, have no moral laws written upon their hearts, and are not responsible for sin. Sometimes, punishment for sin is death, but before the punishment there is always repentance. Either the culprit, or a suitable substitute, has to answer for mans sin. Jesus told us to address the sins in our own lives, not pass judgement on others or look down our noses at them.
Sin earned us our rightful damnation to death and hell, and God graciously offers mercy for forgiveness to all those who repent of their sins and trust in Jesus -- Gods son. I have told scores of people, convinced, that however broad and deep their depravity, Gods forgiveness is even wider and deeper. I have assured scores of people that no matter how unforgivable, terrible, even despicable, the sins they commit, they do not commit the sins of the Spirit.
