Crossing God's Deadline
Adrian Rogers
Matthew 12:31-32
Open God's precious Word to Matthew chapter twelve, and we're going to look at two of the most terrifying verses in all of the Bible. I feel as a pastor and as a man of God that it is incumbent upon me from time to time to speak on these particular verses. Not that I enjoy doing so; not that I want to do so. But I feel that there are far more people in America and around the world committing the unpardonable sin than we may ever dare to dream.

Huh, he thought there's no tide that could be so swift that I could not possibly outrun it. And he continued to walk. The tide turned and the waters came up to his feet and began to wash over his feet. He turned and headed toward the shore and the waters came in much quicker than he realized. Before long the waters were up to his shins, his knees, and his thighs. He slogged through the water trying to make it back to the shore. When he got there, there were those massive high walls of rock. He tried to climb up on the rocks and a big wave came and swept him away. Spectators watched the man as he perished in the waves. What happened to this man is that he did not be ...
