De Domino (Whitehead) n. 65

65. The sin against the Holy Spirit is the denial of the Divine of the Lord (Matt. 12:28, 32; Mark 3:28, 29; Luke 11:20, etc.). This is evident from what precedes. They said that He cast out demons "by the prince of the demons"; and He said that He did it "by the Spirit of God," that is, by His own Divine. This denial in heart is not remitted, for such cannot enter heaven; as all Socinians. (Some things concerning them from experience.)
