I at least smirked at this one, but yes cringe city putting words in Christs mouth like that. Some might even say blasphemous.
Thankfully:
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.
If it is forgivable to blaspheme Christ, it's likely forgivable to make cringey memes about Him.
You can't take a single passage out of its intended context. Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit has to do with accusing Jesus Christ of being demon-possessed instead of spirit filled. This particular type of blasphemy cannot be duplicated today. The Pharisees who accused Him were in a unique moment in history: they had the law and the prophets, they had the Holy Spirit stirring their hearts, they had the Son of God Himself standing right in front of them, and they saw with their own eyes the miracles He did.
Never before and never since had so much divine light been granted to men. If anyone should have recognized Jesus for who He is, it was the Pharisees. Yet they chose defiance. They purposely attributed the work of the Spirit to the devil, even though they knew the truth and had the proof. Jesus declared their willful blindness to be unpardonable. Their blasphemy against the Holy Spirit was their final rejection of God's grace.
Again, the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit cannot be repeated today, Jesus Christ is not on earth. He is seated at the right hand of God. No one can personally witness Jesus performing a miracle and then attribute that power to satan instead of the Spirit.
Interesting how you took my comment out of context since I was entirely referring to the first passage that blaspheming the Son of man can be forgiven.
I even spelled it out and made no reference to the blaspheming of the Holy Spirit at all, but chose to quote the whole verse rather than part.
Trump was a divine intervention by God!
Man, I hope I'm not the only Christian on here who finds this stuff terribly cringey.

Agreed. Some maximum cringe here.
Obama and the rest of the Christ rejectors will indeed have a meeting with the All Mighty.
