Mark 3:22–30
I. BY GRIEVING HIM -Ephesians 4:30
It is the Christian’s duty to yield and not rebel against the Holy Spirit, to surrender to the holy influence of the Holy Spirit.
As the wayward child makes a heavy-hearted parent, we grieve Him, make him unhappy, when we fail to yield to the Holy Spirit.
II.
BY QUENCHING HIM—I Thess.
5:19
Do not drown or suffocate the Holy Spirit.
It is a flame in our hearts to purify, to consecrate us.
A. Living in known sin—I John 4:1
B. Allowing things of the world to absorb our affections, thus “choking the Word”—Matthew 13:22
C. Neglecting our duty as Christians—Matthew 25:26
III.
BY RESISTING HIM
The Holy Spirit is a force for good.
He’s strong and would direct us.
When we hear the words of the Spirit we may yield and be saved or resist and be damned.
IV.
BY LYING TO HIM -Acts 5:3
When we, like Ananias and Sapphira, pretend to be or do what we have not, we lie, and sin against the Holy Spirit.
V. BY TRYING TO BUY HIM, OR HIS GIFTS—Acts 8:17
He who tries to do so is in the “gall of bitterness and the bond of iniquity.”
VI.
BY BLASPHEMING HIM—Mark 3:22–30
“Blaspheme means to speak against in an evil way, to revile, to slander.
The Pharisees blasphemed the Holy Spirit when they attributed the Lord’s miracles to the power of the devil.
They called good evil.
While walking in the light, they denied the light—called it darkness.
In this sense, people who blaspheme the Holy Spirit are beyond pardon, because they are beyond repentance (Matt.
12:31)
VII.
BY POLLUTING THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT—I Cor.
6:15–20
A. Seven other spirits—Matt.
12:45: Luke 11:26
B. A polluter of the temple of the Holy Spirit rejected God—I Thes.
