less sinners. Some have already taken this fatal step, a step that can never be retraced. Friend, Rave youl =... = Yo . This unpardonable- sin is sin against the Holy Ghost, or Holy Spirit: “Whosoever shall speak & word against the Son of man, it : shall be forgiven him; but unto him that blaphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven him.” (Luke 12:10.) In order to understand how there could be a sin for which there is no forgiveness, we must understand our relationshi to the Holy Spirit, and the nature of His work for us, : No sin ean be forgiven until the sinner repents and seeks forgiveness. But we cannot repent unless the Holy Spirit works upon our hearts to reprove, the margin says, “convince,” us “of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment.” (John 16:8.) After convincing us of the horrible fate awaiting the sinner, He convinces us that the righteousness of Christ alone will save us from the wrath of God in the day of judgment. If we yield to His convictions, and seek forgiveness of our sins, He sheds abroad the love of God in our

hearts, and gives us power to purify our souls In obeying the

truth, (Rom. 5:5; 1 Peter 1:22.) But we must be taught by the Spirit in order to, under. stand what is truth, for “The natura! man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him.” “Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth,” (Cor. 2:14; John 16:13.) We are dependent on Him to teach- us how to pray, and. to transmit our prayers to heaven: “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.” (Read Rom. 8:26, 27.). As we are absolutely dependent upon the Spirit to convict us ‘of sin so that we will seek forgiveness, it is very evident that.we could not repent and seek forgiveness if He should forsake us because of our sin’against Him. Therefore be

careful that ye “Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby

ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.” (Eph. 4:30.)

There are two ways in which the unpardonable sin may

be committed. One is by a gradual and long-continued-hard- °

ening of the heart by neglecting to give heed to that still small véiée in the soul that tries to lead us to repentence. This

sin of neglect becomes an unpardonable sin when the con-

science becomes so dead that there is no longer any desire for holiness of life, If you still have an earnest desire to get right with God, the Spirit has not forsaken you. But don't delay! »7 The unpardonable s.n may also be committed by openly and intentionally resisting the convictions of the Holy Spirit. That is what the Jews did when they attributed the work of the Holy Spirit to the devil. (Mark 3:22-30.) They had every reason to know that Christ performed his miracles by the Spirit of God. But they fought against their convictions, and were determined not to accept Christ and His. teachings. Steven sald of them, "Ye do always RESIST the Holy Ghost.” (Acts 7:51.) Whether we resist, or neglect to heed, the conviction the Spirit brings to the soul, we are surely approaching the hour when we will have committeed the unpardonable sin, and thus sealed our doom forever, Friend, think of this if you are refusing, or neglecting, to walk in the light you have received from God's holy word which declares, “The seventh day is THE BABBATH OF THE LORD THY GOD: in it thou shalt not do any work.” (Read Ex. 20:8-11.) If you continue to disobey Him on this point, or on any other, He will surely foresske you. If you wait for a more convenient. tipgg in which to obey Him, your convictions will gradually diminish as the Spirit withdraws Himself from your soul. Then the spirit of the evil one will come In to deceive you into thinking that you are all right when you have no hope at all. Be sure to walk in the light as it shines upon your pathway. If you do not, darkness will overtake you.
