Dividing the willful sin(part-3): -
How could someone trample(trodding) underfoot, the Son of God? Is it by committing a big sin exactly at the moment when you are remembering Lord Jesus and still didn't cease from sinning? or is it a committing of big sin repeatedly even after you are born again? If you commit any sin or a big sin repeatedly after you are born again, definitely, the consequences are huge. Quit underestimating the sin. God will definitely punish you. Or curse you. If the curse didn't fall on you, your children have to face the punishment or your grandchildren, but the punishment or curse is for sure. Still, it doesn't make anything like the unforgivable sin. The damage done by sinning repeatedly after you are being saved is so high. But God will still forgive you. Then why should not a Christian sin if God forgives the repeated sin, even after we are being saved? Because God is holy God who hates the sin, regardless of small sin or big sin. If you become God's child, you are obligated to hate the sin like God, regardless of how much of the magnitude the sin is.
Then what is meant by trodding under the foot, the son of God? Again, we must remember that other than the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, all these unpardonable sin cases are mentioned only in the book of Hebrews. That means, the Jewish Christians those days have something to do with the chances of committing these unforgivable sins. What might be that? Those Jewish Christians are Jews before they received Lord Jesus as their personal savior. Now again they may stop gathering as a Church and maybe they can go back to their previous religion of Judaism, hoping that there would be salvation in their religion also. This is why, this unpardonable sin cases are repeatedly given to those Jewish Christians. You cannot find this type of warnings anywhere else in the bible other than this book. Even that doesn't mean God won't forgive them if they return to Him after they went back to their previous religion. There is a process in which God really applies on a person the eternal punishment of banishing a person from his presence. We will learn that further. You are 100% safe. Our God is God of all mercies. What is Jonah accusing on God. Jonah.4:4 Therefore I fled previously to Tarshish; for I know that You are a gracious and merciful God, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness, one who relents from doing harm. But they cannot come back to God again. Even after they tasted the real salvation in the way of Lord Jesus, can anyone go into another religion to receive salvation? What could anyone find in any of the other religions? Nothing. Receiving the Lord Jesus as your God is the destiny of a human being. That is the only task assigned on the man kind to do. But if they come back, God will forgive them.
So, trodding under the feet, the Son of God meaning, seeking for salvation at another place, despite of the experience of the real salvation in the Son of God. Going back into any of the other religions including with the Judaism. This is exactly the place where the topic of willful sin has started. Willful sin is mentioned in Hebrews.10:26. If we go three verses before the arrival of the willful sin, in hebrew.10:23, we will find some cautions given to that Jewish Christians. 23Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) 24And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: 25Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. These are the warnings to not to cease from gathering as a Church. And the emerge of the unforgivable sin arrives first as a succession for the previous urge or warnings of the writer from backsliding to gather as a Church, as some does. But still, the willful sin is different. Because cain in the Old Testament, Annanias and Sapphira in the book of acts, and Akon in the book of Joshua and few others had really committed the unforgivable sin.
