How to prove what blasphemy against the Holy Ghost is!
November 10, 2024
Introduction
This was originally posted on 10/3/2015, but is now being updated.
Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit is also known as the unforgivable sin.
Now we’re going to do a very thorough and detailed coverage of 3 different aspects of “ghost”:
- The dictionary definition of ghost
- “HOLY GHOST” is a contradiction of terms
- the Holy Ghost forgeries
But first, we need to verify and clarify some things. What is the “HOLY GHOST”?
What is the definition of ghost?
Dictionary definition of ghost: [1 of many]
noun
the soul of a dead person, a disembodied spirit imagined, usually as a vague, shadowy or evanescent form, as wandering among or haunting living persons.
So according to the word of God, this is absolutely false!
Here is definition #3, from a different dictionary: a spirit, demon
A GHOST IS A DEVIL SPIRIT COME INTO CONCRETION, so the phrase “HOLY GHOST” is a contradiction of terms!
All devil spirits are unholy by their very nature and can NEVER be rehabbed into being a good ghost, like the evil cartoon Casper the friendly ghost, which is a blatant lie from Satan.
So the phrase “HOLY GHOST” is Satan’s attempt to corrupt the perfect word of God by associating God with a devil spirit. Its a false accusation against the Lord.
In the bible, the word “ghost” is the Greek word pneuma [Strong’s # 4151] and means SPIRIT [God] or spirit [the gift of holy spirit we receive when we get born again].
For more understanding, here is an article on the HOLY GHOST forgeries.
The word “blasphemy” occurs 14 times in the entire bible, with 6 of those usages in the gospels = 42%.
There are 5 verses in the gospels [listed below] that deal with blasphemy against the Holy Ghost and they are some of the most misunderstood verses in the bible.
Matthew 12
31 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost [SPIRIT] shall not be forgiven unto men.
32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost [SPIRIT] it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.
Mark 3
28 Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:
29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost [SPIRIT] hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation.
Luke 12:10
and whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost [SPIRIT] it shall not be forgiven.
How do we prove what the unforgivable sin is, blasphemy against the Holy Ghost?
Everybody’s in a hurry in these hectic days of survival and treachery, so we’re going to cut to the chase and just focus on the verses in Matthew 12.
What specific strategies do you have and what critical thinking skills are you going to use to solve this spiritual equation?
If we don’t even know where to look for the answer, we’ll never find it.
There are only 2 fundamental ways the bible interprets itself: in the verse or in the context.
So let’s get brutally honest here – do these 2 verses in Matthew 12 really explain what blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is?
Matthew 12
31 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost [SPIRIT] shall not be forgiven unto men.
32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost [SPIRIT] it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.
NO!
Therefore, the answer has to be in the context.
Boom! Half our problem has been solved already.
There are only 2 types of contexts: immediate and remote.
The immediate context is the handful of verses before AND AFTER THE VERSE (S) IN QUESTION!
The remote context can be the whole chapter, the book of the bible the verse is in or even the entire OT or NT.
I dare you to read Matthew 12:1-30 and decisively and conclusively prove what the unforgivable sin is.
You can’t.
Neither can anybody else because the answer is not there.
Therefore, the answer must be in the immediate context AFTER the verses in question.
Our problem has been cut in half again.
Everybody’s been looking in the wrong place and guessing FOR CENTURIES, yet the answer was only 2 verses away!
Could Satan have anything to do with that?
The seed-of-the-serpent vipers of our day & time, in an effort to camouflage themselves, have poisoned all christianity with the spiritual venom that attacks the cardiovascular system [their heart; Isaiah 6:9 & 10], blinding them from seeing the answer in verse 34!
The consequences of this is that all christians I have seen cherry picked Matthew 12:1-30, and none of them refer to the answer in Matthew 12:34. Since they are only using half the information [the context] which proves its biased data, which proves their explanations are based on the wisdom of this world [which is earthly, sensual and devilish and VERY biased] and not the wisdom of God above!
First off, the entire old testament AND all 4 gospels are written DIRECTLY TO ISRAEL!
That means NOT TO US!!!
Romans 15 [amplified bible]
4 For whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope and overflow with confidence in His promises.
8 For I tell you that Christ has become a servant and a minister to the circumcision (Jews) on behalf of God’s truth, to confirm and verify the promises made to the fathers,
I Corinthians 10:11
Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
In Matthew 12:31, who is the “you” referring to?
Matthew 12:31
Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost [SPIRIT] shall not be forgiven unto men.
Since this verse doesn’t explain who the “you” is referring to, it must explain itself in the context.
Matthew 12:24
But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.
Jesus was talking to a certain group of Pharisees, one of several types of religious leaders in that time and place.
33 Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.
34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil1, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil2 man out of the evil3 treasure [of his heart] bringeth forth evil4 things.
Verse 34 is the answer. What do you think is worse [and truly qualifies as an unforgivable sin]: cursing God or BECOMING A SON OF THE DEVIL???
Biblical definition of generation

Strong’s Concordance #2191
echidna: a viper
Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine
Phonetic Spelling: (ekh’-id-nah)
Definition: a serpent, snake, viper.
HELPS Word-studies
2191 éxidna – properly, a venomous snake; (figuratively) incisive [penetrating; cutting; biting; trenchant] words that deliver deadly venom, with the use of blasphemy. This switches the bitter for the sweet, light for darkness, etc. 2191/exidna (“viper”) then suggests the venomous desire to reverse what is true for what is false.
Translation: a viper that delivers deadly venom with incisive, penetrating, cutting and biting words of blasphemy because they are energized by devil spirit power.
James 3
5 Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth!
6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell [gehenna:
HELPS Word-studies
1067 géenna (a transliteration of the Hebrew term, Gêhinnōm, “the valley of Hinnom”) – Gehenna, i.e. hell (also referred to as the “lake of fire” in Revelation)].
7 For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind:
8 But the tongue can no man tame [the natural man of body and soul]; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison>>why? because their words were energized by devil spirits that contradict God’s word.
Obviously the evil Pharisees [vipers] were not literal, physical children of venomous snakes because the word “vipers” in Matthew 12:34 is a figure of speech emphasizing what they have in common: venom; associating the liquid venom of a physical viper to the spiritual venom of the Pharisees = spiritual vipers that poison people with their doctrines of devils.
The spiritual oxygenation of speaking in tongues is the only antidote to the venom of spiritual vipers

I Timothy 4
1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
Since the Pharisees were the children of a venomous viper, who was their father?
[Cue in the star wars scene where Darth Vader famously said, “I am your father!”]
Genesis 3:1
Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
The word “subtil” comes from the Hebrew word arum [Strong’s #6175] and means crafty, shrewd and sensible.
If you look up the word crafty in a dictionary, it means to be skillful in underhanded or evil schemes; to be cunning, deceitful or sly;
The serpent is one of the many different names of the devil, emphasizing a particular set of characteristics such as cunning, craftiness and treachery.
Isaiah 24:16 [amplified bible]
From the ends of the earth we hear songs, “Glory and honor to the Righteous One,”
But I say, “I waste away, I waste away. Woe to me! The treacherous deal treacherously, Indeed, the treacherous deal very treacherously.”
Dictionary definition of serpent
noun
1. a snake.
2. a wily, treacherous, or malicious person.
3. the Devil; Satan. Gen. 3:1–5.
Definition # 1 can be, in some cases, an actual physical animal that is a snake. However, in this usage, its a very accurate figurative description of the evil Pharisees [as Jesus Christ called them], while definition #2 is what the figurative meaning of 1 is.
The biblical definition of the word “serpent” in Genesis 3:1 comes from the Hebrew word nachash [Strong’s # 5175] and it refers to a viper, the exact term Jesus described them with.
So the spiritual father of the evil Pharisees in Matthew 12 was THE serpent, the devil.

6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.
7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.
The devil, through his treachery, gets people to worship him indirectly through the kingdoms of this world and their money, power, control and glory.
I John 2
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
Biblical definition of blasphemy
Strong’s Concordance #988
blasphémia: slander
Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine
Phonetic Spelling: (blas-fay-me’-ah)
Definition: abusive or scurrilous language [grossly or obscenely abusive], blasphemy.
HELPS Word-studies
Cognate: 988 blasphēmía (from blax, “sluggish/slow,” and 5345 /phḗmē, “reputation, fame”) – blasphemy – literally, slow (sluggish) to call something good (that really is good) – and slow to identify what is truly bad (that really is evil).
Blasphemy (988 /blasphēmía) “switches” right for wrong (wrong for right), i.e. calls what God disapproves, “right” which “exchanges the truth of God for a lie” (Romans 1:25). See 987 (blasphēmeō).
In other words, it consists of lies, which can only originate from the devil.
Isaiah 5:20
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
HAVE YOU COMMITTED THE UNFORGIVABLE SIN WHICH IS BLASPHEMY AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT?
So now that we know what blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is, how do we know if we have committed it or not?
Good question.
Its very simple.
Just compare the characteristics of those who have committed the unforgivable sin with yours and see if they match up.
Ready?
Deuteronomy 13:13
Certain men, the children of Belial, are gone out from among you, and have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known;
The word belial is one of the many names of the devil and comes from the Hebrew word beliyyaal [Strong’s #1100] and means worthlessness; without profit; good-for-nothing, which is a perfect description of the devil and his children.
[just these 2 teaching series alone by Rev. L. craig Martindale is approximately 40+ hours of advanced, in-depth instruction about people born of the seed of the serpent! This is more and better than all other sources on the internet combined!]
The devil and his sons are 1 billion percent worthless in their very nature and the resulting thoughts, beliefs, words and actions.
2 Peter 2:12
But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;
So, are you:
- a leader of a very large group of people or sector of society
- that deceives and seduces them with multiple devil spirits
- into committing idolatry [worshiping people, places or things instead of the one true God?]
At least 99% of the people reading this get filtered out right here, on the very first verse!
What a relief, right?
No worries mate. The good Lord has your back.
Now the next batch of their characteristics:
Proverbs 6
16 These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
Do you have ALL 7 of these characteristics?
- A proud look – are you so full of pathological pride and arrogance that it can never be fixed? In Psalms, these seed of the serpent people are called “the proud”, which takes pride to an entirely new depth of wickedness.
- A lying tongue – are you a habitual and expert liar with no remorse whatsoever?
- Psalms 58 [amplified bible]
- 3 The wicked are estranged from the womb; These go astray from birth, speaking lies [even twisted partial truths].
- 4 Their poison is like the venom of a serpent; They are like the deaf horned viper that stops up its ear,
- Hands that shed innocent blood – are you guilty of ordering or carrying out multiple first degree murders against innocent people? [World Leaders Sign WEF Treaty Introducing ‘Age of Death’ Laws in West (this is legalized geriatric murder!)]
- An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations – do you invent all kinds of evil and wicked things to do AND actually carry them out? [such as the wicked law from the WEF above?]
- Feet that be swift in running to mischief – do you habitually and remorselessly commit a lot of illegal, immoral, unethical, evil & destructive things?
- A false witness that speaketh lies – This is the THIRD TIME that lying is mentioned!! Do you falsely accuse people of evil, in and outside of the courtroom, even under oath [perjury], regardless if it means the death of the accused or not, and of course, without any remorse and go so far as to justify your evil or lie about it – again?
- He that soweth discord among brethren – do you cause large-scale racism, wars, riots, or other kinds of divisions amongst groups of people, especially christians, without remorse?
Nobody should have all 10 at this point.
Now for characteristic #11.
I Timothy 6
9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
There’s nothing wrong with being rich. The problem is when you are so full of greed that being rich is the only thing in your life and you are willing to do anything [such as the 7 evil things listed in Proverbs 6] to get more money, power and control. Its out-of-control lust for money and power on steroids.
Money is simply a medium of exchange.
Its nothing but ink on paper, or a combination of metals made into a coin, or nowadays, digital funds created on a computer, so money is not the root of all evil, its the love of money that is the root of all evil.
Matthew 6:24
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon [a Hebrew word that means wealth or riches].
There is a figure of speech in this verse and the way it works is this:
you hold onto the one you love and you despise the one you hate.
That makes so much sense, doesn’t it?
If money and power are your master, and greed is who you are, then you probably have the love of money, which is the root of all evil.
If properly managed, money can be a good servant, but with the wrong attitude of heart, its a horrifically bad master.
Acts 13:10
And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
Let’s break down the 4 characteristics of sons of the devil mentioned in this verse:
- full of all subtilty
- full of all mischief
- enemy of all righteousness
- wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
Biblical definition of subtilty: [used 11 times in the NT, the number of disintegration, disorder, disorganization and imperfection!]
Strong’s Lexicon #1388
dolos definition: deceit, guile, treachery
Part of Speech: Noun, Masculine
Pronunciation: DO-los
HELPS Word-studies
1388 dólos – properly, bait; (figuratively) deceit (trickery) using bait to allure (“hook”) people, especially those already festering in excessive, emotional pain (brought on by themselves).
1388 /dólos (“deceit motivated by guile”) uses decoys to snare (deceive) people which implies treachery to exploit the naive (undiscerning) – baiting them through (with) their own greed.
Definition of allure: powerfully attractive and tempting.
Biblical definition of mischief:
Strong’s Lexicon #4468
rhadiourgia meaning: craftiness, deceit, recklessness, villainy, wickedness.
Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine
Pronunciation: rah-dee-oor-GEE-ah
In the New Testament, it is used to describe the deceitful practices of individuals who oppose the truth and righteousness! This verifies what verse 10 says: they are enemies of all righteousness!
So if you have:
- all 3 characteristics from Deuteronomy 13:13 AND
- all 7 characteristics listed in Proverbs 6:12-19 AND
- the 4 characteristics from Acts 13:10 AND
- the love of money in I Timothy 6: 9 & 10
- [that’s only 15 of their many characteristics] then there’s a very good chance you are born of the seed of the serpent
So let’s get a clearer picture of who these Pharisees really are from the remote context of Matthew 12: [this isn’t all the information on them, just a little bit].
- First, in Matthew 9, they falsely accused Jesus of casting out a smaller devil spirit with a bigger one because they were operating devil spirits themselves, so they were hypocrites.
- Second, in Matthew 12:2, they falsely accused Jesus again
- Third, Jesus healed a man on the sabbath day that had a withered hand in their own synagogue. The Pharisees response was to plot a way to murder him, to totally destroy him!
- These were the psychopathic religious monsters who were born of the seed of the serpent and therefore committed blasphemy against the Holy Spirit and will be burned up in the lake of fire
II Corinthians 11
13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
That explains all the false accusations against Jesus.
That explains the plot to murder Jesus just because he healed a man of a withered hand on the sabbath day.
There’s 2 characteristics right out of Proverbs 6: a false witness and were plotting on how to murder Jesus, [just for healing a man on the sabbath day = shedding innocent blood; true murder is caused when somebody is possessed with a devil spirit of murder, and not when a person genuinely kills somebody else in self defense]. They were also leaders that deceived people into idolatry [Deuteronomy 13], now they have 3 characteristics of people born of the seed of the serpent.
But all this is nothing new. There have been spiritual sons of the devil for thousands of years.
Genesis 3:15
And I will put enmity between thee [the devil] and the woman, and between thy seed [the devil’s seed = offspring, people who have sold their souls to the devil] and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
So people born of the seed of serpent have been around ever since Cain, the first person born on earth way back in Genesis 4. Cain murdered his brother, and the Pharisees plotted a way to murder Jesus Christ. Cain’s first recorded words in the bible was a lie, just like the devil.
John 8:44
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Here in John, Jesus is confronting another group of scribes and Pharisees, this time in the temple in Jerusalem. They were born of the seed of the serpent also, but not all of the religious leaders were sons of the devil, only some of them, just like in our world today.
The 2 categories of sin: forgivable and unforgivable
I John 5:16
If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
“There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.” – this is the sin of making the devil your Lord. It is useless to pray for these people because they are the way they are because the devil’s spiritual seed inside them cannot be changed, healed or removed, any more than a pear tree has the power to change what kind of tree it is.
This is the one and only unforgivable sin because all seed is permanent. Its not that God does not or cannot forgive him, but forgiveness is totally irrelevant for a person who is born of the seed of the serpent.
The reason being is that even if they did receive forgiveness from God, so what? The devil’s seed would still remain within them. They would still do all those bad things in Deuteronomy, Proverbs and I Timothy [the love of money] and they will still end up in the lake of fire in the future judgments.
So now all this makes sense: if you sell out your soul to the devil to the point of becoming his son, then you will be in eternal damnation and not if you just do a few bad things here and there.
HOW TO DESTROY THE EVIL PLANS OF THE PSYCHOPATHIC MONSTERS RUNNING THIS WORLD
Isaiah 37
21 Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent unto Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Whereas thou hast prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria [Sennacherib was born of the seed of the serpent]
And look at the results of this prayer!
37 So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
38 And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Armenia: and Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.
Psalms 141 [amplified bible]
Let the righteous [thoughtfully] strike (correct) me—it is a kindness [done to encourage my spiritual maturity]. It is [the choicest anointing] oil on the head; Let my head not refuse [to accept and acknowledge and learn from] it; For still my prayer is against their wicked deeds.
We don’t know how the situations in our day and time will work out, but we can certainly invoke the power of the Lord to quench the fiery arrows of the wicked!
Ephesians 5:20
Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Just pray to the Lord God Almighty to destroy the destructive plans of the wicked ones in the name of Jesus Christ our lord.
AMEN.
