That’s not what I asked, but on that point, I believe Jesus Christ Himself said all sins will be forgiven except blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.
If as your verse says Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: (Mark 3:28 KJV).. Then again Jesus will judge who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit. not me or you. I notice you stated that Annanias and Sapphira were in heaven... dont know how you can say that. Clearly you seek to support your church doctrine.

If anyone could offer a cogent explanation of the Trinity, I imagine they would. But they can't, so they don't.
There are some good words, helpful words about the nature of God.
We speak not to fully explain. what we cannot.
We speak so as not to be completely silent.
Originally posted by @rajk999I don’t believe I ever said Annanias and Sapphira were in heaven - I asked you what evidence you had that they lost their salvation (i.e. were no longer saved) even though they had God’s Holy Spirit within them. You did not provide any.

I have no idea if Annanias and Sapphira are in heaven because I don’t know if their lying to the Holy Spirit was the unforgiveable sin referenced by Jesus.
I’m glad to see you found the verse I referenced and have revised your previous position (I suppose “artfully massaged” your previous position is a more accurate way of saying it.)

You said that the Bible has a clear statement about Christians who sin and you previously said, misinterpreting Romans 8:13, that they would die in their sins.
Then, you quote Jesus Christ saying all sins will be forgiven except the sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.
So which is it? Do Christians who sin die in their sins or are their sins forgiven, except the sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit? Hint: It’s the latter because you misinterpreted Romans 8:13.
