ever? No, indeed, but when You put
your soul in such a condition that
striving with you is useless, God will
withdraw his spirit. Strife implies
res, stance. and when you resist the
spirit until you callous your soul, fur

it is the objectionable sin You never

| Holy Spirit is God. Why should it be
worse to blaspheme him than either
one of the other persons Of the trini-
! ty. 1t is worse, for the work of God
and his son are finished, but the work
of the Holy Spirit is not finished He
is the representation of the Godhead
in the world and if you cut yourself
off from him, you are lost. Deliber-
ate SHINING in the light of knowledge
is one way in which men may bias
pheme the Holy Spirit, and the Book
says. there is no forgiveness for this.
| If by a deliberate act you sever the
wires between YOU and your God you
are lost. God can't help It, God does
not damn anybody. You damn yourself
by turning your back on the Lord
