I remember my pastor once said this exact same thing to me in a simple sentence: "If you are seeking forgiveness you have not committed the unforgivable sin."

[@strangelee4400]

Sounds like someone needs a dictionary. Could you explain to your priest what 'Unforgivable' means. Thanks.

[@richardnewell8478]

@@strangelee4400 Exactly, I don't think there is ANY biblical support for this - if it is unpardonable the game is over, regardless of whether you regret it or seek forgiveness. At 1:40 the speaker dismisses the idea that a Christian would do this, but I think the Holy Spirit could move in ways that some Christians would actively oppose, or even attribute to Satan out of ignorance. God will judge as He sees fit on this subject, but I think we should stick to the text on this matter and not make up theology that isn't there.

[@miarymr8337]

@@richardnewell8478 I think that phrase is based on the fact that people who seek forgiveness, according to the Bible, will get it, but those who don't seek it, simply won't. Therefore, someone who has committed the sin won't seek forgiveness; they don't want to repent, and hence, they won't get it.

Thank you for this. Recently, I was struggling with OCD, i think. It's when unwanted thoughts bother you so much even though you want it out of your mind, it becomes worse. I was attacked by blasphemous thoughts within my mind and I am in deep pain struggling with this. I don't want to sin against the Lord just because of my sickly mind. Thanks to your message because it gave me a complete answer to every question I have in my head. However I am still struggling to overcome and contain these malicious thoughts but I know that God is always there to help me, I just needed to trust him with all my heart. Please pray for me, I don't want these thoughts in my head anymore😥

[@Nicolee7764]

Have you ever prayed & fasted in order to remove them? Matthew 17:21‐ However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting. Since some spirits take longer to be removed. You're be able to pray & fast after your meal. l wanted to also let you know that during this process of removing unclean spirits, you need to be living Holy. Of course we should be living Holy regardless. However any unholiness in your life, or unforgiveness will prevent them from leaving.

Dear Christian, "Struggle No More"! It is one thing to let bird's fly over and around our head's, but totally non acceptable to let them take up residence on our head. The Lord is Not sending these attacks or accusations your way. The Serpent is called The Accuser of the Brethren. Those so called religious leaders Our Lord was talking to, didn't even remember what the Prophet's had told them of the suffering and hardship The Messiah would have to endure. They were Trying to Mold God Almighty into their own idea of what The Messiah was to do and say. Jesus exposed their wickedness and their foul definition of Who and what The Messiah was to do. They believed their own lie which was planted and nourished like a seed, but was in essence was like a bird that nested on their heads. They "Deliberately" refused Our Lord by Satanic Accusation. Now dear child of The Most High, Since All of the Attributes of our Heavenly Father have been Instilled In and upon Our Lord Jesus, And since the Holy Spirit is of Our Heavenly Father, Rejecting Our Savior is The Unpardonable Sin leading to Everlasting Separation apart From Our Lord Jesus in Hell Eternal. Be Not Tormented by the accuser, but continue to be Transformed by the Renewing of your Heart, Mind & Soul by The Holy Spirit. See you at the great banquet.💜🙏🙌

[@persoonmars1828]

Bro I feel you. I’ve also got OCD man it sucks. It started out small as in like, oh I have to wash my hands all the time so I dont get sick. Luckily I got a therapist and she took care of it. Unfortunately, it didn’t stop there. My OCD evolved into a much greater OCD that makes me hyperfocus on much grander topics like the size of the universe, artificial intelligence and the singularity, humanitys greed and corruption, our industrialized society vs nature, the metaverse and more recently, he’ll. OCD sucks man but god can see your thoughts and he knows the perils your in. The fact that you acknowledge that it’s bad and are trying to fight it off is already a good sign, it means the Holy Spirit currently resides inside you and is fighting it off. God is righteous and I am confident he knows you are a good person. He loves the sinners, but hates the sin. In the meantime, consider getting some therapy for your OCD. It’s hard to beat someone who never gives up, I’m sure you’ll beat it.

Man I’m so thankful for your comment cause it’s exactly how I feel I felt tormented by a thought that I had and I felt like I committed this sin I felt so afraid like I was going straight to hell but I’m also trying to trust in God and his promises and not my thoughts I’ll be praying for you Thanks for commenting and being honest 🥺

[@Woozler554]

If I can offer some advice, obsessive thoughts will enter into a tired, stressed mind, and the more you try to get rid of them, the more they stay. It's like a song that you hear over and over again in your mind, particularly when you are fatigued. Remember, it's just a thought. You didn't actually do anything. You can have the unpleasant thought of jumping off a bridge. But that doesn't mean you are doing it. It's the same thing here. Don't be alarmed when the unwanted thoughts come back. Just tell yourself "Those thoughts are not me. I'm just fatigued. I will not fight them." Just let them run their course. Gradually, you lose interest in them, and they will pass.

The blasphemy against the Holy Spirit was committed by the Pharisees during the Ministry of Jesus Christ. The unforgivable sin is when someone knows that God is working in other's life but that someone willfully chooses to deny that. The Pharisees were religious leaders; they KNEW that the Messiah was in front of their faces but still chose to reject Him. The Pharisees rejected Jesus Christ from the first time they saw Him. Also, the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is not an accidental thought, but it is by speaking. And I believe the unforgivable sin can be committed today. So, let us be careful what we speak in general. God said that we will give an account during the Judgment Day for every idle word we speak. God looks at the heart, so do not worry, those who worry about whether you committed the unforgivable sin or not. If someone commits that sin, they would not be concerned about it at all. The fact that you are worried about it tells that you have not committed the unforgivable sin. And worry not, God will set you all free if you continue to seek Him and believe in Him. Remember, it is all about faith and about what your heart looks like. If you are not generous with other people, have grudges in your heart and have little or no concern about your salvation, then you need to check yourselves. If you are humble, caring towards others, support other brothers and sisters in Christ that are ministering to others and doing what God has told them to do, then you are fine. Talking about myself; I used to suffer from OCD before and I used to fight against intrusive thoughts and anxiety. I, too, had the fear of committing the unforgivable sin; sometimes I still have this fear, but God is always by my side. He knows my heart, and He has guided me ever since I was born again. I know I can do it better, and that is why I seek His face everytime, because I want to do it better in my walk with Him. I want my Father in Heaven to tell me: this is My servant, in whom I am well pleased. I love the great I AM so much, I would never ever ever trade this relationship for anything! God is my everything, and I am a lost cause without Him. Thank You, Jesus! I love You so much!

The thing about the unforgivable sin is that it has to be continuously performed until death. It is in effect rejecting the holy spirit, and repeatedly doing so until death. The reason it is 'unforgivable' is that the person who commits it will never desire to accept the holy spirit, therefore dying without it and going to hell. Many people confuse this, with a commited christian stumbling and having a tough patch in their faith.

[@joeturner9219]

[@annelucas6819]

Dr. Schreiner made some good points, but he never really answered the question. To blaspheme the Holy Spirit does not properly consist in offending against the Holy Spirit in words; it consists rather in the refusal to accept the salvation which God offers to man through the Holy Spirit, working through the power of the cross. Such blasphemy is to reject the Holy Spirit, to refuse radically to recognize sin and repent of it, and to block the healing and forgiveness offered by the Lord. So the sin is not unforgivable because of its seriousness, but because the sinner lacks the proper disposition to seek forgiveness and thereby to be forgiven. It excludes the elements through which the forgiveness of sin takes place. How can the Lord forgive us and reconcile us to a sharing in His life if we refuse to recognize the sin as a sin and to say, “Please forgive me, Lord, for I have sinned against you and my neighbor”? This “hardness of heart” leads to a sustained and firm rejection of the love and mercy of God, which in turn leads to damnation. Why is it worse to deny sin than to sin? Because by denying sin, we deny our need for forgiveness; we remain blind and deaf to the inspirations of God, which seek to change us and then change the world! If we are blind to sin, we will go on offending Our Lord, growing in unhappiness, and provoking God’s just anger. “If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.” (1 John 1:8)

I wanted to go to church learn about God and build a relationship with him but I messed it up once again as I started partaking in the same sins that kept me away from God.

This is very clear and extremely helpful. The unforgivable sin is being unrepentant and unconcerned about defiling Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.

The Unforgivable Sin against the Holy Spirit are these: (1) Despairing of being saved; (2) Presuming on being saved without merit; (3) Opposing the known truth; (4) Envying another's graces; (5) Obstinately remaining in sin; (6) Final impenitence.

James O where does it say in the Bible that when you go on sinning and you sin to much that you won’t turn back.

[@GodGirlP]

James O you can't place things that Scripture does not say. Scriptire doesn't list most of what you said. Now if we live in sin till we die , yes we will die in our Sins. But the bible doesn't call the unforgivable sin what you just said it was with all those other answers.

I’ve had some weird dreams, voices as I’ve woken up, weird visions, since coming back to Jesus. They are not nightmares, but there is typically something off-either a feeling or a fact (like encouraging me to attend Bible College in a city that does not have a Bible College. I get frustrated and overwhelmed, and just say out loud, “oh that has to becoming from (the enemy)!” I definitely feel like the I’ve blasphemed the Holy Spirit. HAVE I??? My walk with God has not gone well because I feel like He just wants me to perform for Him. Just really feeling all around hopeless. Any insight would be nice.

[@karennagy2428]

aakk009 Hi. What do you mean that Christ just wants you to perform for Him? His love for you is not, nor will it ever be, contingent on your acts of service or otherwise. There is nothing you can do to make God love you more; there is nothing you can do to make God love you less. His love is vast, real, and wholly dependable. Read Psalm 139. Believe and KNOW that he died for you. FOR YOU. Find a church (body of believers) that teach the Bible and the Risen Lord. Speak to a pastor about these dreams. First and foremost-pray to the Lord Of Hosts, the God Almighty, for freedom from your “feelings” and what’s hurting you. Rebuke what is NOT of God. Tell it to leave in Christ’s strong name. It will. I will pray for you now.

I was told it meant something totally different. I suffer and cry and feel helpless because I felt that I committed the unpardenable sin. I read about the unforgivable sin and I was so concerned that Satan would use this to insure that I would lose my salvation. To make a long story short, I had quit smoking and Satan put my unholy, occult practicing witch in my home. I was trying to share the gospel with her. We were watching a movie in my room, called Pilgrims Progress. She was smoking in my room and house. I started smoking again. One morning I woke up extremely early and I was smoking outside and I was very angry with myself. A thought came into my head, for the Holy Spirit to leave, because I was guilty of smoking. I had begged God for the Holy Spirit and immediately started crying, when I had this thought. What I really meant was, that I know that this is wrong and Im angry with myself. I would never want the precious Holy Spirit to leave me. I felt so bad, I went upstairs and started to pray. I have been smoking for 43 of my 50 yrs on Earth. I love Jesus, but I feel that I committed the unpardenable sin. I still preach the gospel. I share His Word on Facebook. I love Him and wish there was something I could do to be forgiven. please let me know if I did, in fact commit this sin. Thank you and God bless you.

Here’s the question though: what if we say something that would be considered bad but don’t mean it? This is where I’m stuck and find controversial.

[@sebastienroux1790]

@@Manwithabrain90 Treasure of the heart, it could mean intentions and it could also mean whether you love God. Remember no man can change his own heart, only God can. Its not really that controversial. The desciples wrote down the unforgivable sin, that doesnt mean they meant it. It was fpr educational purposes. Many people do things they dont mean when they are drunk or overly tired. Another way to look at it is even if you did something unforgivable it shouldnt matter. You should still be trying to do what God wants out of your love for God. I felt the same way many times, Ive practically given up on combatting sin. I dont think I have ever helped save anyone. And yet here we are. Certainly God is using me to keep you from abandoning faith. There is no game over for believers. A righteous man falls 7 times a day but returns to God again. Here is a 3rd way to look at it. Imagine a man with no tongue to confess his sins nor can he say that he believes. Tied up by some or other authority figure. Unable to do anything. Is he saved because in his heart he chose God? Or do you think God would say something down the line of "too bad"? I think Jesus stood up for sinners way too much for technicalities to damn us. Nowhere in the Bible is God described as a sadist. He wouldnt send His Son to die just so He cab damn us for not being perfect. Even in Genesis He asked Adam and Eve questions in order to get them to come clean rather than just sending them to hell. Be glad you can feel guilt when you think you have done something against God. It means the Holy Spirit is in you. That fire in your heart might shrink but it will never dissapear. Keep fighting the good fight, dont give the devil the satisfaction.

[@evilcowboy]

Such a beautiful way of putting it. I always looked at blasphemy as denying God is who he says he is and Christ is who he says he is and ultimately saying their power is finite and non-existent. Funny thing I never worried about it as I never had that thought, I've cursed at God, I've done things I am not proud of, I have entertained the possibility of if God never existed and also explored other doctrines and faiths (which are fundamentally the same message). Through all adversity I have faced which is quite a bit and what I've been told by others would have almost certainly destroyed the average person I never wavered. I wasn't always a nice person but I never wavered. The only consistency was that Christ was simply always there, I have witnessed so many personal miracles I can't count them all and I realized the amount of love I feel from Christ and God is not imaginary and is extremely overwhelming. As a result of a lifetime of always trusting Christ when I needed him I asked him one question that allowed me to see clearly. All I did was look up and asked "help me understand" I am unsure of what I really meant but have come to realize it was the age old question of why we are here and how does God exist. I will warn to never ask because what follows is a flooding of information and can get really intense. I assume it was because my faith was strong and even as a 7 year old I always talked to Christ like a friend. My unwavering faith from such an early age is all I can guess as to why I can ask something of Christ and immediately get an answer. So a lot of people struggle with many things such as HOW God exists and what we are to him, why bad things happen sometimes despite being faithful and what happens upon death and what happens after. So the first one is we exist inside the mind of God, his ever expanding consciousness, particularly the source of creation his imagination, that is why Christ is important he needed a being capable of understanding both him and us, Christ lived in this world and is the son of God he is the only one capable of this and being the teacher and messenger he is. The second is a consequence of free will and is observable in Chaos theory, ultimately we cause it if the choice is poor, God can't stop it without threatening the foundation of free will and if free will goes so does faith as you don't have the free will to believe. Finally, for those who believe in Christ what happens is your consciousness is yanked from your body in the event of a sudden death such as falling off a cliff, your body falls and your consciousness stays behind, the setting you see after is personal to you. The system of death is highly complex but is eternal and infinite the only thing that I fall out of line with the bible on is the system of death IS reincarnation. It is a tool used by Christ. We are allowed to wait with him until we are ready to do it again. The reason I know this is I remembered standing next to Christ on the edge of a very serene and beautiful river with a feeling of waiting, I was then aware of being sent back to be born. The reason it is this system is because Christ knows if you stay in this area you will not be happy as we thrive on challenge, we were not created to be perfect so we must see the perfection inside of imperfection. This system is backed fully by the bible and not just in the words "Born again" but also referenced in the beginning of the bible with the ages of Abraham, Noah and Moses. The ages are a collective tally exactly how God would calculate it, this is the ages of when you are free from possible grasp of evil and is why some cannot get it right now. Provided you have remained faithful to God and Christ over the courses of several lives then evil is abolished and you will never suffer another death as I said your consciousness regardless how you die will be transferred in the blink of an eye by Christ. It doesn't mean you will not see any more adversity when you come back, it just means if you die because your murdered as a child or something like that then you simply don't realize it happened and you can easily navigate back between your family and Christ. I know reincarnation is not a belief of Christianity but can any Christian say what their idea of heaven is when you know if the parameters fall outside of what this Earth then you will not be happy. We simply cannot live in perfection without eventually being bored out of our minds. You must have the power to change things to keep it interesting, reincarnation does that. I asked Christ if I was correct in thinking this while rebuking any form of the devil, he keeps reassuring me this is correct. His exact words in case anyone is interested was "Have I not shown you? Have you not lived and died in my name? You are the projection of your own reality and the projection of everything good in your life. I have always loved you and I always will and this love is what keeps your continuum going. This life or the many before it are not the end." Now some may be wondering what hell is then if this continuum can be reached for everyone. Hell is the forgotten area of Gods mind, it is the place good cannot exist and is at the furthest reach contained in his mind. Ever wonder why you should laugh at the audacity of Lucifer, the idiot never realized he was always going to be contained within Gods consciousness and could not be outside of it. He viewed God as a separate entity and he thought God had a face to confront, he was wrong. Nothing can exist outside of infinity. However, Hell is real but its not for us to dwell on, if you believe in God and Christ then you will never see it, it is literally impossible to for those who believe to ever see it as it is locked to us. Oh one last thing as the unforgivable sin, its really not blasphemy in the traditional sense, denial of the power of God is denial of God himself, you can comeback from blasphemy, it is hard to do it but it is possible to be forgiven of it. The unforgivable sin is leading people away from God. This is a hugely unforgivable sin and is a main contributing fact of why I cannot follow any specified church, I cannot comfortably say that mankind has not tainted, edited or changed the bible to their liking or simply interpreted it incorrectly. I do know I have seen more people turn from God because of bigotry of faiths such as Catholicism or Islamic extremists (Islam is a faith of God and is equally as faithful to God as Christianity despite some of it like Christianity being misinterpreted to fit some agenda). I cannot hate any of God's creation not even Atheists as the faithful to God is who created the opposition that caused it to happen and yes they get to go to heaven too if what turned them towards it was hateful bigotry in the church as the injustice was done at the hands of someone else who was trusted to teach the word of God not use it to persecute. Sorry if this offends anyone and if its not what you wanted to hear but these are the words unadulterated spoke to me by the lord Jesus Christ and that took a lot of prayer and thinking to cut through the image others portrayed of both him and God and honestly I am a little ticked because I have the sinking suspicion that the Vatican has the original text of the bible with the stuff they cut out of it and refuse to include. Sorry but the words of Mary and Judas are equally important and also Judas is in heaven not hell he was the only one faithful enough to Christ to do what his purpose was to do, Judas is one of Christ most cherished disciples and without him none of this would be possible. We do not define God he defines us.

I disagree. I believe the unforgiveable sin is described in John 3:18-19, namely, one's continuous disbelief in the name of the only Son of God due to one's love of darkness. Honestly, the real problem here is his specificity. In one sense, we're saying the same thing because calling the works of God satanic IS something that a lover of darkness would do. I'm simply arguing that born again believers COULD also make this mistake. Therefore, calling the works of God satanic cannot be the unforgivable sin since it's possible for God to forgive people who learn otherwise and repent. The unforgiveable sin is one's CONTINUOUS disbelief in the name of the only Son of God due to one's love of darkness.

[@Daniel12.4Ministry]

The torture and worry that most Christians feel is because of the conviction of the holy spirit letting them know that they are not right with God. Teachers like the one in this video have convinced most Christians that they are alright with God as long as they are sorry for sins they committed. Jesus called that type of sorrow worldly sorrow. The sorrow that Christ requires is Godly sorrow, of which is to be so sorry that you dont commit that sin ever again. Of course blasphemy of the holy spirit, sin unto death, and unforgivable sin is all the same thing. Numbers 15:28-31 make it clear what blasphemy of the holy spirit is, as well as sin unto death. It is defiance against God. It is unforgivable for those who have truly been converted if they know that something is wrong, and then choose to go and do it anyway, presuming that God will forgive you. Numbers 15:28-31 also define what sin not unto death is, that being sin that is committed in ignorance. This is what Hebrews 10:26-27 also endorses, as well as many other scriptures. The problem here is that when you hear this you feel angered and get quite upset, because you believe that you are already saved and you know that you still commit sin. This is because you have never truly been converted in the biblical way, because very few churches are teaching conversion properly. Acts 2:38 explains an overview of conversion, as does Romans 6. The problem is that most churches never tell you that you enter into covenant with God when you convert, and that a covenant is a contract of which both parties involved have certain responsibilities and benefits. There is also the fact that repentance and baptism are usually also being falsely taught. Not understanding the terms of a contract prevents you from lawfully entering into it. Not understanding what repentance is or the purpose of baptism also prevents you from receiving the benefit of a true conversion, of which is the remission of your sins. With the remission of sins comes freedom from sin, where slavery of sin is broken. Repentance is Godly sorrow unto true reformation. This means that after a true conversion, you do not ever choose to do what you know is wrong. Remember, defiance is unpardonable. A true baptism is never for the purpose of an outward sign of an inward change, as is taught in the majority of churches. A true baptism is to be fully immersed in water, where one dies with Christ, as Christ entered into the ground, you go under the water. This to be done in the name of Jesus Christ, for the purpose of remission of your sins, just as the scriptures teach. When you have done these two things, you will receive the Holy Spirit of Christ Jesus who will come and live within your heart and he will guide you to live a holy life. Once he is within you, you never defy him or it is blasphemy of the holy spirit, a sin unto death. Numbers 15:28-31 is clear that this law is eternal for both Jews and Gentiles. I praythat this has assisted some of you. Get your copy of THE ETERNAL BOOK OF TRUTH, THE NEW TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES. It is a guide that will point you to Jesus Christ for real. God's Blessings...

I do believe we need to know not only the bible which is the word of God but also we need a personal relationship with our our Lord & the Holy Spirit. Satan will use confusion to his advantage. He will try to make us believe we can't be forgiven so we will give up our faith. May the Lord Jesus bless & keep u

I was reading Ezekiel and I got to the part with the angels feet where it says “ their feet were like calf hooves “ and my stupid little brain immediately associated to the devil and thought stupid thoughts. And man do I feel terrible and right away I believe I have committed the unforgivable sin.

[@pinappleaye2455]

I don’t think you did God knows your heart he knows how you really are and that you feel bad because you love him

[@HP-jy1hi]

I’ve been growing cold and reprobate, please pray for me, God please finish your work in my life

[@enriqueramirez1722]

Like many I fear that I’ve committed the unforgivable sin. I’m sure like many this fear always hits hardest when I turn away from god and try to repent or come to him. However, I come back to him out of fear of hell. I struggle with my sexuality and I always have. At some point or a few times in my life I have spoke evil against god, Jesus, the Holy Spirit in spite of him. I did so regardless of my knowledge of the truth but I was angry about my sexuality and my life situations. Again I have left to go my own way for a few years and now I’m back because a sense of fear and the end times have brought me to my knees begging for mercy. I don’t want to lie and I don’t want to say that I’ve ever felt “sorry” for saying what I’ve said about the Holy Spirit but a great sense of fear has lead me back to Christ. I read somewhere that those who committed it won’t care but that they might be fearful of the punishment that will come to them. This fear is solely selfish and all about me not about how I offended god but I don’t want my pursuit of the lord to be only fear based. I want to love god, I want to feel his love and his mercy. I do believe that Jesus is the true son of god and that through him alone salvation comes. I am willing to turn away from my sins for my own sake and to not be damned. Again I know this all sounds selfish and I know that I need to repent for him not just me but this fear is so damaging I don’t believe life is worth living anymore. I don’t see the point in living if I’m just doomed. I’m terrified because it feels like I have a seared conscious and this voice is tellin me “well if you already are a lost cause why not live how you want to?” But a part of me holds hope that maybe I haven’t lost all hope. I’m so confused and tormented. Again I don’t feel “sorry” or “bad” for what I did I’m just afraid of my punishment. “ I want the truth just please tell me” is something I find myself saying too often. If anyone has clarity for my specific situation please help me to understand if I’m too late or if I’m a lost cause.

[@alexanton5872]

My friend, do not worry. If you ask Jesus to reveal Himself to you and if you want Him to increase your love for Him, then He will do so. He will replace your fear for genuine love. It may take years, but if you persevere God will transform your heart and mind through the baptism of the Holy Spirit. I had similar fears when I was younger, but eventually God made it clear to me that His grace is unconditional and is available to anyone who desires Jesus and believes that He is Lord. Please keep asking God for the Spirit to guide you into newfound faith. Like it says in 2 Peter 3:9: "The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance." (NIV). Since His word is true, then God will not turn away from your repentance and He will not let you perish. Trust in Christ and reject the lies of the devil who tells you that you are damned. He is the deceiver who wants you to believe in his falsehoods; do not let him fool you. Instead, trust in the endless patience and love of Jesus Christ our Lord. May God bless you and keep you, Enrique. Please let me know how I can be praying for you or if you would simply like to talk more.

[@matthewnel8778]

Enrique, I can relate to what you are saying. I myself first came to Christ a couple of years back, but then my faith went off the rails due to fear of having committed the unpardonable sin through a sexual sin with which I was struggling. I then lived like an unbeliever for about 18 months, but eventually cried out to God as I was tired of living the way that u was and wanted freedom from my sin. I must say that my conscience is not as accusing as it once was, and my feelings seem to be number than they once were. However, these verses have really encouraged me to lay a hold of Christ and not give up. "All who the Father gives me will come to me, and he who comes to me I will never cast out." John 6:37 Just go to Jesus in prayer. Trust Him, don't wait for a feeling. Just trust Him and read and obey His Word. Also read Psalm 107, specifically verses 10 through 16, as they deal with people who rebelled against the Lord and spurned His counsel, much like what you and I have done. They cried out to Him and found mercy! Since I cried out to Him last year, I have not had a perfect walk with Him, but I have seen victory over sin and have seen new sins come to light that I must rid myself of. I am now learning to trust God regardless of the way I feel. Don't let fear stop you from going to Him! I would also recommend that you watch a video by I'll Be Honest, "Think you've committed the unpardonable sin? Find a promise". That video really helped me last night as I was wrestling with this issue. Be blessed and may God grant you mercy and faith.

[@faithy_py]

wait....... will i go to hell if i did this??????? i mean i dont know if i did this and i probably havent but still im scared >_

[@savedbythegraceofchristmin8488]

Kawaii CatKween Do not worry you CANNOT commit blasphemy of the Holy Ghost today. Blasphemy of the Holy Ghost is to contribute the miracles done by Jesus through the Holy Ghost to the power of Satan in front of undeniable evidence. In order to commit that sin today Jesus would have to be alive and on earth today performing miracles. It is impossible to commit this sin ever again as the circumstance needed to commit the sin will never happen again. It is very simple to be saved and have eternal life. John 3:16 states “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth In Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” All we have to do to go to Heaven is to believe the Gospel with simple faith. And the gospel message is that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day. ( 1 Cor. 1-8) Jesus rose bodily from the dead proven by the eye witnesses. All You have to do is to admit you are a sinner(Romans 3:23), understanding our sin costs us an eternity in hell(Romans 6:23), and simply believe that Jesus died on the cross for all of your personal sins you have committed, was buried, and rose again three days later and you will be saved! Receive the gospel as full payment for you sins and you are saved!

[@maxwelljamison405]

Blasphemy against the holy Spirit is when you've sinned so much that you ignore the holy spirits convictions so much that you stop getting those convictions. Rejecting the holy spirit is blasphemy

[@sotl97]

If you utterly turn away from God, yes, you will go to hell for this. But this is more than simply denying God and the Holy Ghost. This is more than going through a stage in your life where you push God out of your life. Think of Cain who refused God and made his offerings to Satan. He conspired with Satan to get gain, killed his brother, and sought to hide his sin from God with lies. Is this you? Have you conspired with Satan, have you shed innocent blood? In Gods presence have you lied and treated him as the enemy? If you answered no to any of those, then you are likely not guilty of this sin. My guess is that you are not even eligible to commit this sin haveing not yet received a sure witness of God. But only you and God will know. A sure way for you to know is to turn to God and ask him to show you his love. Go to him fasting, studying the scriptures, and having previous prayed to let God know your desires. He will tell you.

Nick Brown Here’s my definition but please comment so I can hear others thoughts, I’d really appreciate it. “To knowingly and willfully mock God, continuously resist conviction, and undermine the work of Christ. An example of the unpardonable sin would be a pastor losing his son and hating god so much that he laughs and mocks the face of god stealing from the tithings of a church in a clear statement and challenge to God mercy. Claiming “you’ll have to forgive me! I got your sons blood, I’ll be covered after I’m done.” It’s a sick perversion of God’s grace.

The body of sin(flesh) is the unforgivable sin. Those who offer their worldly "good works" to god, rather than Christ who is our perfect tithe and offering.

[@ossafp7758]

What if you blasphemed but regret

[@Godisreal123]

The fact u are regretting it is a sign u didn’t do it! People that does this sin don’t care to regret

[@theralphster3260]

Crusty Crab the Holy Spirit brings the regret. If you were guilty of this sin, you wouldn’t care one way or anothe

[@brianramirez5481]

What if you fell into sin and in your thoughts they kept saying spirit of devil is nothingness and then said spirit of God during the middle of you doing the sin and you try ignoring your thoughts and after you finish that sin you feel this big impact of fear and guilt and your afraid you disrespected the Holy Spirit

[@lapizza7175]

You misunderstood. What you're talking about is a simple blasphemy. Wich is forgiveable like any other sins. Not the same as rejecting the holy spirit from your hearth on purpose

[@kpmountainman123palmer6]

THANK GOD IAM SO RELEIVED

[@matthawksworth]

In Job 30, Job blames and accuses God of giving him a bad life, but as we all know, Job was fully restored. Job just lacked faith when pushed to the limit, because its hard. But the story proves this point, that even when we are pushed to the limit and lose faith, God is still there with us ready to restore us fully. He was always with us. This same point is illustrated many times throughout the Bible because it is the main point of God's purpose for our lives after the fall of Adam - to restore us. When Peter sank below the water he cried to Jesus and He pulled him out. When the Lord's lambs go astray, He goes to find them and return them. There are many other stories in the Bible about this.

[@peipappy615]

The Bible says blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is the unforgivable sin. The Christian Church has historically taught that this sin is a rejection of the mercy of God "AND" an unwillingness to ask forgiveness for it. As Dr. Thomas puts it, "they just don't care". It doesn't matter to them even unto death. We error if we try to box God in to a spot where he cannot offer his mercy, when he clearly desires the salvation of all.

[@TwiddlySword]

Can someone help? I think I did the unforgivable sin in my thoughts.. I stopped caring randomly about doing the sin can god forgive me? i didnt mean to do it

[@Jillian1stJohn3-9-10]

For 50 years I had only gone to churches that were very conservative and did not believe and the gift of speaking in tongues by the power of the Holy Spirit is still for today. Then 2 years ago I started attending a church where they prayed in tongues on Tues nights. I asked the pastor about how his daughter prays, because her Travailing style of prayer is Extremely LOUD Screaming cries for an hour!! It doesn't bother anyone else who softly prayed in tongues, but since I pray in English, I couldn't hear myself think. I said there is no way that could be of the Holy Spirit... Implying if it's not of God so it must be of... He cut me off and said: Be careful, the only unforgivable sin is to blaspheme the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit works very powerfully through her. So for 2 years I've feared that I had committed the unpardonable sin.
