He will find disease and disgrace. His shame will never be wiped away. Proverbs 6:33, TLV
Oh. Good Grief! Lovely. Terri’s going to blog about disease and disgrace and shame. Why? Because there are still children of the Most High God who believe they have to earn their way because of their past. They still carry the shame and disgrace, even though Jesus took everything to the cross.
I believe there is only one unforgivable sin (Luke 12:10):
“For this reason I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but blasphemy against the Ruach [Spirit] will not be forgiven. Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Ruach ha-Kodesh [the Holy Spirit] will not be forgiven, neither in this age nor in the one to come.” Matthew 12:31-32, TLV
Why can we speak against Jesus, but not the Holy Spirit? The context of this passage is that some of the Pharisees accused Yeshua of driving out demons by the power of beelzubub rather than the power of God’s Spirit. Meaning, they were attributing the Holy Spirit’s power to the devil. Not a good thing.
So, that is the only unpardonable sin. Which means, adultery, stealing, even murder, our Father will forgive because Jesus took those sins to the cross.
When a soul accepts that atonement — Yeshua’s blood covering — and acknowledge Him as LORD and believe that He rose from the dead and reigns in heaven, then the rest of those sins are covered.
Can others accuse us and try to bring shame and disgrace to us? Are there repercussions for some of our past behaviors that can emotionally and physically affect us? Yes. But it has nothing to do with our salvation. And even these earthly consequences God can use for His Kingdom and help us grow. He will love us through them. Be there with us.
That’s our Father, our Messiah and Savior. That’s the work 
of the Holy Spirit.
The warnings in today’s chapter of Proverbs are worthy reminders to avoid succumbing to temptations. But this isn’t where it ends. Our LORD longs to redeem, not judge. Restore, not condemn. Love, not hate. And that’s a wonderful thing.
Think More About It
Are we struggling with shame and disgrace from our past? Yes? Where do we go to find comfort and hope to move forward in healing and restoration?
Until tomorrow, may we remember, my friends that He longs to forgive and restore.
Please continue to pray for Israel and the Jewish people around the world experiencing heightened anti-Semitism. Thank you and God bless you.
