Mark 7 lines 6 through 9

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. MARK

MARK CHAPTER 7 LINES 6 THROUGH 9

6 He answered and said unto them, Well
hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites,
as it is written, This people honoureth me
with their lips, but their heart is far from
me.
7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me,
teaching for doctrines the commandments
of men.
8 For laying aside the commandment of
God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the
washing of pots and cups: and many other
such like things ye do.
9 And he said unto them, Full well ye
reject the commandment of God, that ye
may keep your own tradition.

COLOSSIANS 2 LINES 8, 9 AND 10

THE EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE COLOSSIANS

COLOSSIANS CHAPTER 2 LINES 8 TO 10

8  Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the

tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

9  For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

10  And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost

Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost 

These two lines are key to understanding this matter:

Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.  1 Timothy 6:1

I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.  Psalms 138:2

Those that blasphemed the name of God were stoned to death.  How much more so the reproof for those that blaspheme his word which he magnified above all his name!

Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost is not against a person; it is a sin against the doctrine of God; the power of God which is his word.  Consider these lines in Mark:

And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils.  Mark 3:22

Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:  Mark 3:28
