Alma teaches his son about the most serious sins which can be committed.
“…If ye deny the Holy Ghost when it once has had place in you, and ye know that ye deny it, behold, this is a sin which is unpardonable; yea, and whosoever murdereth against the light and knowledge of God, it is not easy for him to obtain forgiveness; yea, I say unto you, my son, that it is not easy for him to obtain a forgiveness.” (Alma 39:6)
Questions:
-Why is denying the Holy Ghost, after an undeniable witness therefrom, an unpardonable sin?
-Is this unpardonable sin very rare…only committed by a very few people?
Gratitude: I am grateful that Christ is mighty to save! Short of the gravest sins mentioned above, He will always apply his saving power whenever I (or anyone else) chooses to sincerely repent.
