I thought blasphemy of the Holy Spirit was the only thing unforgivable. This is definitely a difficult thing to deal with. I know Bundy accepted Christ before he was electrocuted and Son of Sam has become a Christian. The idea that Christ’s sacrifice covers the most heinous things for those who are truly repentant is a tenet of faith.
No disagreements. Absolutely God knows their heart and while I’d be happy to share Christ’s message with such a person you would be crazy to have them around kids. As with Son of Sam, I hope he is truly repentant but I don’t know.
Completely agree with you about forgiveness and reconciliation
I might even go so far as to argue that putting a repentant man around children would be leading them to temptation. Would it be right for a Christian to offer a former alcoholic a drink?
