Bible Discussion Thread

I teach a Bible study at a Baptist church and am somewhat concerned over the lack of study concerning the unforgivable sin of which Peter alludes to here. Jesus himself even stated there was a sin for which his blood would not atone...the sin of apostasy. Since only believers can commit it, it falls upon us to sound the alarm that ones faith must be lived actively each and every day. Works alone are not enough, but must be accompanied by a holy attitude and motivations, righteous in nature. This by no means should be understood to say that we are constantly in danger of being an apostate, but on the other hand, we had better be aware of the duty and responsibility of serving our Lord and Savior on a consistent basis with the constant assistance of the Holy Spirit. The price paid for your and my salvation was great and as the Word declares, "For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required;" Luke 12:48.
