For what sin are men condemned?

Smitty: Blasphemy is more than speaking evil of God, that’s why the Pharisees accused Jesus of blasphemy when he said he was the son of man. We know Jesus never credited evil to the Holy Spirit but he was still accused of blasphemy.

(RECUSA)
But we know Jesus was falsely accused. Holding yourself equal to God is blasphemy, which Jesus was not guilty of. But this still doesn't fit your definition.

Smitty: How is that? I wasn’t trying to make a case for prevenient grace. As far as the person living in some remote place that hasn’t heard about the gospel, I believe that all creation testifies to the very existence of God. So that no man is without excuses. I’m not really sure how to show what would happen to that person just as we are not sure what happens to the infant who dies before being able to understand??

The post assumed PG as true and worked from there. The false foundation led to false views.

Unless atonement was made. Thank you Jesus for your atonement.

Does that cover all sin?

Blasphemy?????

It covers all sin it was purposed to cover. It cannot cover ALl sin of ALL men, or ALl men would be saved.

Your blasphemy idea is false theology.

It does not cover blasphemy. So by default, no saved person has committed blasphemy, huh?

[Me] Wow, good point...that could've been said earlier and saved a good bit of confusion I bet. That statement pretty much settles it.
