There are 2 books in the bible that most church leaders, preachers, and teachers had just as soon not 'go there'.. Genesis chapters 1-6; Hebrews... both can be too controversial for many.
Once one is 'born again', they are a babe in Christ.. but God does not want one to stay a babe: ( Heb 5:13For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. 14But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age,..) God wants does not want us to forget the principles of the doctrine of Christ, but He wants us to grow to maturity and perfection by studying to be doers of His Word and not hearers only.
Many do not understand ( Heb 5:4-6= 4For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.) Only those that come to maturity and come to know The Holy Ghost personally are in danger of blaspheming against Him. [I am speaking of those that are baptized in the Holy Ghost].
( Luke 12:10= And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.) A babe in Christ is not going to know enough about the Holy Ghost [the third person of the Trinity] to speak evil against Him...
The more mature we are in Christ, the more Christ can use us. At the same time, the more mature we are in Christ, the more liable we are for our actions..
Anyone that 'feels' the convicting power of God dealing with them when they sin or get out of God's will, is a child of God..
A lost person can not commit the unpardonable sin; they are already lost.. only a saved person can commit this sin against the Holy Ghost...
