I think from tho verse you have to look a little deeper. We are forgiven our sins through our saviour. If we reject the ministry Of the holy spirit in our lives this is the only unforgivable sign as we cannot be saved by the Lord Jesus Christ if we reject the holy spirit. So this passage is relating to the fact that rejecting the holy spirit is the only unforgivable sin.

I think it means exactly what it states and Jesus is the one who judges. I would assume if Ananias and Sapphira had lied to Jesus they would not have died that very day. Of course I see the Holy Spirit or Spirit of the Sovereign Lord or Spirit of Truth as the Fathers Spirit. There is only One God who is Spirit. I would see the Father as the mind of the Spirit. Jesus has been given all authority so Jesus also in that context "will's" and the Holy Spirit acts or Jesus asks the Father and the Father "will's" and His Spirit acts.

Matt 12:32 KJV
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.

Blasphemy" is malicious speaking against God. To blaspheme goes against improper speech against God. The "blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven," but "every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men" but the one "against the Holy Spirit." Man may speak "a word against the Son of man" and "it shall be forgiven him," but "whosoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in that which is to come." It refers to the final rejection of the will of God. To reject the will of God was to sin against God, to reject the words of Jesus was to sin against Him, and to reject the teachings of the Holy Spirit was to sin against the Holy Spirit for there would be no more testimony and no more opportunity to repent.

The Bible itself is its own best interpreter, Mark 3:29 tells what the unforgiveable sin is.

 

[rrowell]

God speaks to man today by his Son Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit (the word of God penned by men with the guidance of the Holy Spirit)

You can reject God, but through the word of God (the Holy Spirit) you can find your way and he will forgive you.

You can reject Jesus, but through the word of God (the Holy Spirit) you can find your way and he will forgive you.

If you reject the Holy Spirit (the word of God) you cannot find your way, you cannot be forgiven.
