Is Luke 12:10 correct?

So what about the ones that have accepted christ as their lord and savior yet they continue to blaspheme? Are they still forgiven? I see this type of behavior a lot.

[Sean88gt]

Well, did they really accept him or strictly say it to cover bases?

Continuing to blaspheme against the Holy Spirit after accepting Jesus Christ as your saviour means you have accepted Him in words only but not in your heart. That is not true acceptance and God knows what is in your heart regardless of what you say.

We're all going to sin whether we've accepted Christ and asked for forgiveness or not. If you are truly sorry for your sins, ask for forgiveness, repent to the best of your abilities and accept Jesus as your Savior, then you will be saved.

Using it as a get out of jail card won't cut it even for the best of us.

The ones I know mostly seem to use it as a cover but there's one who did accept but seems like it's sn issue of morals with them mainly adultery. I see they truly are following God's path but the fault I see is apparent and they don't seem to think anything wrong about it. I know no one's perfect but if you're constantly saying that you're blessed to have let the holy ghost into your heart shouldn't you follow through on that path??

Well this is confusing.

[Denny]

Not really. Either you have the Holy Spirit in your heart or you don't. There are people that say they accepted Jesus as their savior, yet they really haven't.

[idrivea4banger]

So as long as you've "truly" accepted you can be forgiven for all your sins you will commit? Wether its adultery or anything else along those lines, you will be forgiven?

Of course. It's not like someone magically stops sinning once they have been saved. You're gonna screw up. Just don't do go out and do it while saying that you can get away with it because God will forgive me. Part of the deal is that you repent. That means to stop living the sinful life you had AND try to keep from doing those things again. When you have you moments of weakness, just turn to God.

But what if they really genuinely believe they have? This is where fanaticism is birthed.

That's why final judgement is left up to God. He knows your true intentions and feelings. His will is perfect and beyond our understanding. Always ahs been. The is how Satan fell and also how he led Eve (then Adam) astray. None of them really got it and chose to disobey and search it out, rather than accept. Now it is our nature.
