The Holy Ghost before Pentecost part 1 of Chapter 6 of Judas Iscariot by Ogden

Holy Ghost Before Pentecost

Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men; but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto me. And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. (Matt. 12:31-32)

Did Judas Iscariot sin against the Holy Ghost when he betrayed the Savior? Did the apostles have the Holy Ghost before the day of Pentecost? This is an important aspect in the betrayal by Judas, and a most important consideration in any religious betrayal.

The seriousness of Judas’ betrayal is a very significant question. Did he bring about the death of Christ by sinning against the Holy Ghost? The question of sinning against the Holy Ghost is an unforgiveable and unpardonable sin–therefore, it is an important aspect of the crime of Judas’ betrayal
