Blasphemy - The Forgotten Sin of the Saints

The Good News (Gospel) According to Matthew
Today’s Focus: Blasphemy – The Forgotten Sin of the Saints
Scripture: Matthew 12:31-32

Greetings Kingdom Citizens
I know many leaders of the churches do not deal with this word but we best deal with it and have an understanding of what it is because Jesus says that blasphemy of the Holy Ghost is UNFORGIVABLE! First, we need to know what blasphemy is because I can tell you, some of you and many of your children are speaking blasphemy through songs and music and do not even know it. Let’s define blasphemy:
Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines blasphemy as:
1 a: the act of insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence for God b: the act of claiming the attributes of deity

So, blasphemy of the Holy Ghost is the act of insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence. Now read the scripture very very carefully, whoever speaketh a word against the Son of Man (Jesus) it shall be forgiven. So in other words, Jesus knew that people would talk about Him, betray and speak all manner of evil against Him. But when you speak against the Holy Ghost it will not be forgiven in this life nor in the world to come. So many of these Hip-Hop, Rap, Rock-n-Roll and other various artists have blasphemous lyrics that no citizen should every speak, let alone sing. Satan knows he cannot get you to worship him directly but if he can CAUSE you to do it, that is just as good. Let me give you an example, I let a young man hear the lyrics of one of his favorite artist where the artist says these words in his song “middle finger to the Lord”. Now he heard these words from the exact song of the artist, but because he liked his artist so much, he could not let go of the artist even though he committed blasphemy. Many of our children and some of our adults are in this exact situation. We make excuses for these artists who curse the Lord and commit blasphemy and because we like their beat, we can’t say enough is enough and stop listening to them. Sometimes we need to cut the beat off and read the lyrics and see just what these people are up to.

The people who make a mockery of the church and a mockery of our Lord and the Holy Ghost should not be getting your money nor your ear. Keep in mind the unforgiveable sin comes from the tongue. I urge you to be very careful of what you say and who you allow in your head through your ears. Blasphemy and it’s punishment is very real and if you do not want to burn in the eternal flames then I suggest we start rebuking the people, the industry and the artist that are influencing and speaking this blasphemous and unholy words into our lives.
