Most Christians have wondered at one time or another if they have committed the unpardonable sin. If this is your fear, be encouraged. You have not committed the unforgivable sin. You are not eternally damned. You are not forsaken by God. You are not hated by God. You are not outside the bounds of His love and grace. Quite to the contrary, you are loved by God more than you possibly know. You are forgiven. You are accepted. In this book, Jeremy Meyers shows why you have not committed the unforgivable sin. He surveys the various views about blasphemy against the Holy Spirit and examines Matthew 12:31-32 to show what Jesus meant when He talked about blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.

We live in a visual culture. Today, people increasingly rely upon visuals to help them understand new and difficult concepts. The rise and stunning popularity of the Internet infographic has given us a new way in which to convey data, concepts and ideas. But the visual portrayal of truth is not a novel idea. Indeed, God himself used visuals to teach truth to his people. The tabernacle of the Old Testament was a visual representation of man's distance from God and God's condescension to his people. Each part of the tabernacle was meant to display something of man's treason against God and God's kind response. Likewise, the sacraments of the New Testament are visual representations of man's sin and God's response. Even the cross was both reality and a visual demonstration. As teachers and lovers of sound theology, Challies and Byers have a deep desire to convey the concepts and principles of systematic theology in a fresh, beautiful and informative way. In this book, they have made the deepest truths of the Bible accessible in a way that can be seen and understood by a visual generation.

“If there were a Guinness Book of World Records entry for ‘amount of times having prayed the sinner’s prayer,’ I’m pretty sure I’d be a top contender,” says pastor and author J. D. Greear. He struggled for many years to gain an assurance of salvation and eventually learned he was not alone. “Lack of assurance” is epidemic among evangelical Christians. In Stop Asking Jesus Into Your Heart, J. D. shows that faulty ways of present- ing the gospel are a leading source of the confusion. Our presentations may not be heretical, but they are sometimes misleading. The idea of “asking Jesus into your heart” or “giving your life to Jesus” often gives false assurance to those who are not saved—and keeps those who genuinely are saved from fully embracing that reality. Greear unpacks the doctrine of assurance, showing that salvation is a posture we take to the promise of God in Christ, a posture that begins at a certain point and is maintained for the rest of our lives. He also answers the tough questions about assurance: What exactly is faith? What is repentance? Why are there so many warnings that seem to imply we can lose our salvation? Such issues are handled with respect to the theological rigors they require, but Greear never loses his pastoral sensitivity or a communication technique that makes this message teachable to a wide audience from teens to adults.

Can Christians lose their salvation? This question has perplexed—and, at times, distressed—believers for centuries, and it is still often asked today. When faced with their sin and shortcomings, many Christians are tempted to conclude that they’ve strayed too far and that God no longer loves them. In Kept for Jesus, pastor Sam Storms addresses common concerns that Christians have related to their eternal security, offering hope and assurance from the Bible. Examining every New Testament passage that speaks to this important issue, this book charts a biblical course between those who say that Christians can lose their salvation and those who carelessly declare, “Once saved, always saved.” This pastoral book will equip pastors, church leaders, and laypeople with biblical answers for anyone questioning their salvation.

Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, the sin that no one talks about is a book born under the anointing and inspiration of the Holy spirit of God. While we walk in the Christian path and follow the footsteps of Christ, we sometimes lost our focus on who God really is. For God is a Spirit, and the people that worship him, should worship him in the Spirit and in truth, for he is truth. Sometimes the focus is lost on seeing God as a Spirit, and it amazes me how Christians give less reverence to the Spirit of God and also how easily a Christian can blaspheme the Holy spirit, whether consciously or unconsciously. At times the focus is placed upon a physical being, but god is not physical, he is a Spirit. It sheds light on how one can improve their relationship with God on a more intimate level. For having a relationship with God is the most desired of all relationship one should pursue or yearns after. This book enlightens one's understanding on the unforgiven sin of blasphemies against the Holy Spirit of God. It explains and expands what that sin is, how to avoid it and lets one knows if they had already committed such a sin, in which place there is not anything that can be done, for God is not slack concerning his word, whatsoever he speak shall come to pass. There is not one jot to be taken out of his word, his promises are yes and amen. This book also encourage Christians on how to grow in their Spiritual walk with God and man, moving from drinking the milk of the word, to eating the meat of the word. For milk is liquid and meat is solid, and remains longer in the body. The word of God have to become solid in our body, soul and spirit. As Christians, we are encouraged to walk circumspectly and uprightly before God, and to live lives that are pure and holy, for such is the desired plan of our God for us.
