5 Matt. 12:14, Then the Pharisees went out and plotted against Him, how they might destroy Him. aópo/llumi apollumi aor act subj 3 plur to destroy, to ruin, often to kill (Matt. 2:13, 27:20; Mk. 3:6, 9:22, 11:18; Luke 6:9)

6 Matt. 12:18, Behold! My Servant whom I have chosen, My Beloved in whom My soul is well pleased! I will put My Spirit upon Him, and He will declare justice to the Gentiles. Matt. 12:19, He will not quarrel nor cry out, nor will anyone hear His voice in the streets. Matt. 12:20, A bruised reed He will not break, and smoking flax He will not quench, till He sends forth justice to victory; Matt. 12:21, And in His name Gentiles will trust.

7 Matt. 12:21, And in His name Gentiles will trust. Deut. 32:21, They have provoked Me to jealousy by what is not God; They have moved Me to anger by their foolish idols. But I will provoke them to jealousy by those who are not a nation; I will move them to anger by a foolish nation.

8 Forgiveness 1. Eternal forgiveness, which has eternal life in view. OR 2. Temporal forgiveness, which has divine judgment in history in view.

9 Col. 2:13, And you, [when you were] dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, [because He has] forgiven you all trespasses, Col. 2:14, [when He] wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, [when He] nailed it to the cross.

10 Jesus is announcing to Israel the final straw related to their rejection of Him as Messiah. This blasphemy is related specifically to a historical event and is unique to the life of Jesus. This judgment is a national judgment, not a personal judgment, and was fulfilled in AD 70.

11 Mark 3:28, Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter; Mark 3:29, but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation Mark 3:30, because they said, He has an unclean spirit.

12 Mark 3:28, Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter; Mark 3:29, but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation Mark 3:30, because they said, He has an unclean spirit. does not have forgiveness into the age

13 Mark 3:28, Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter; Mark 3:29 but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation Mark 3:30, because they said, He has an unclean spirit. does not have forgiveness into the age sin of the age or eternal sin or eternal sinful act

14 1 Sam. 15:27, And as Samuel turned around to go away, Saul seized the edge of his robe, and it tore. 1 Sam. 15:28, So Samuel said to him, The LORD has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today, and has given it to a neighbor of yours, who is better than you. 1 Sam. 15:29, And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor relent. For He is not a man, that He should relent.

15 Matt. 12:33, Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit. Matt. 12:34, Brood of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Matt. 12:35, A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. Matt. 12:36, But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. Matt. 12:37, For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.

16 Matt. 7:16, You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? Matt. 7:17, Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. Matt. 7:18, A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Matt. 7:19, Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Matt. 7:20, Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

17 Matt. 6:21, For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

18 Matt. 12:39, But He answered and said to them, An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

19 Matt. 16:1, Then the Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing Him asked that He would show them a sign from heaven. Matt. 16:2, He answered and said to them, When it is evening you say, It will be fair weather, for the sky is red ; Matt. 16:3, and in the morning, It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening. Hypocrites! You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times. Matt. 16:4, A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign shall be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. And He left them and departed.

20 Matt. 12:50, For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother.

21 John 1:10, He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. John 1:11, He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. John 1:12, But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:

22 John 3:16, For God loved the world in this manner: He gave His unique Son that whosoever believes in Him, should not perish, but have eternal life.
