And what is meant by that place in the tenth chapter where he saith / if we sin willingly after we have received the knowledge of the truth / there remaineth no more sacrifice for sin / is declared immediately after. For he maketh a comparison between Moses & Christ / saying: if he which despised Moses law dyed without mercy how much worse punishment is he worthy of / that treadeth the son of God under foot & counteth the blood of the covenant / by which blood he was sanctified / as an unholy thing & blasphemeth the spirit of grace. By which words it is manifest that he meaneth none other by the fore words / then the sin of blasphemy of the spirit.
And what is meant by that place in the tēth chapter where he sayth / yf we synne willinglie after we haue receaued the knowledge of the truthe / there remayneth no more sacrifice for synne / is declared ymediatlye after. For he maketh a comparyson betwene Moses & Christ / sayenge: if he which despised Moses lawe dyed without mercie how moche worse punishement is he worthye of / that treadeth the sonne of God vnder fote & counteth the bloude of the couenaūt / by which bloude he was sanctified / as an vnholy thinge & blasphemeth the spirite of grace. By which wordes it is manyfest that he meaneth none other by the fore wordes / then the synne of blasphemye of the spirite.
For them that sin of ignorance or infirmity / there is remedy / but for him that knoweth the truth / & yet willingly yieldeth himself to sin / and consenteth unto the life of sin with soul and body / and had lever lye in sin then have his poisoned nature healed by the help of the spirit of grace / & maliciously persecuteth the truth: for him I say there is no remedy the way to mercy is locked up & the spirit is taken from him for his unthankfulness sake no more to be given him. Truth it is if a man can turn to God and believe in Christ / he must be forgiven how deep soever he hath sinned: but that will not be with out the spirit / & such blasphemers shall no more have the spirit offered them. Let every man therefore fear God & beware that he yield not him self to serve sin / but how oft soever he sin let ⟨p. cccxxxiii⟩
