hi alan. thanks for your detailed and well thought out reply.

>> I believe the word translated "world" (aion) in the KJV should have been translated "age" or "eon". <<

yes, the preterists i have read often point this out in their arguments.

>> In Matthew Chapter 12, Christ is saying that blasphemy of the spirit of God shall not be pardoned in this “age”, (We are in the present wicked age; see Galations 1:4) nor in the “age to come”.(The next age is the thousand year reign of Christ; see Revelation 20:3). The age after the millennial reign is the new heaven and earth. See Revelation 22:5 <<

perhaps i should have used the verse in mark rather than matthew. unless you believe it is improperly translated as well.

>> He certainly isn’t saying it will never be forgiven. <<

here is the verse in mark:

3:28 Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation

>> Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit will be forgiven after "the age to come", which is the Millenial reign of Jesus Christ <<

let me know if you still maintain this after reading the same passage in mark. perhaps you are aware of the one in mark and believe it is improperly translated as well.

i think the distinctions between 'world' and 'age' are important and worth examining, and i thank you for broaching the subject. i would like to delve into this in a future discourse.
