I feel your pain. I’ve struggled with this too! I love you. God loves you. We have OCD. Nobody can control their thoughts and feelings. God knows this. Little children will tell their parents that they hate them; yet the parents still love them. If ordinary people can do that, then God can certainly do that for us. I can tell you that trying to get rid of the fear by praying to get saved multiple times will only make it worse. Ocd will then make you question if you said it all “just right”. You’ve had some victory over OCD by improving from the fear of the unpardonable sin; now OCD is trying another trick. I hope this helps.

Hey , everyone I’m in the same boat as well. Dealing with extreme fear of the unpardonable sin . I have blasphemous thoughts every day since I’ve learned about the unpardonable sin . Every day I’m so scared because I think I’m committing this terrible act in my mind . I try to reassure myself that I’m saved by continually asking for forgiveness and asking Jesus into my heart . It’s a terrible cycle and habit . Praying for everyone . Also , how did you all over come fear of the unpardonable sin ? Did God give you reassurance that you are His and nothing can remove that .

Thank you. I got over the unpardonable sin by being taught that the Bible cannot contradict itself. Since the old Testament states that God forgives as far as the east as to west and God explicitly states He does not change. The problem of the unpardonable sin must be a problem of none repentance. This is compounded by the fact that Paul speaks who people who cannot repent. We know we cant be forgiven if dont repent and these people CANNOT repent ergo they cannot be forgiven . Jesus stated all other sins would be forgiven meaning there cannot be two unpardonable sins, yet if we take Paul's words without taking note of what Jesus said, there would be two unpardonable sins. Since Jesus says all other sins can be forgiven, that must mean the people that Paul mentions who cannot repent(and ergo cannot be forgiven) are the same type of people Jesus was referring to. So then the unpardonable sin is the result of unrepentance. Which makes perfect sense as The Holy Spirit is our convictor. The tense that Jesus used also does not indicate how many blashphemies He was referring to and drawing from the context of the rest of the Scripture this is the only answer I believe makes sense. That if you are blaspheming The Spirit you cannot get forgiveness, because He is the convictor who tells us we need it. If we are not listening to Him then we cannot repent, because He is the one who moves us to repent. It was very hard for me to believe. It took many pastoral blogs and my mother to convince me this is true and even after that I struggled but I am better now. I hope this helps you.

@Kiri Hey Kiri that did make sense . So in the simplest form the Pharisees would blaspheme which mean they could no longer be convicted of their sins ? Also , I hate that I learned about this because I struggle with the recurrent blasphemous thoughts in my head . Typing this is bringing about so many thoughts

@Junior96! I believe that yes, if they did indeed commit that sin, that would be why due to the scriptures that support it. I also had these bad thoughts I asked God to ignore them and then eventually my OCD switched to this topic. Which is still horrible but it is progress.

@Kiri Important to note that I believe that those who truly lack conviction do not repent.

@Kiri I understand . Very encouraging. Really am praying that God will forgive me every time I think about them . I don’t care if it’s me or not , I just want to be forgiven . My mind operates in a way that retains bad things because I’m in such fear . That’s why I’ve been stuck with these blasphemous thoughts . I’ll be praying for you Kiri !

I have been doubting my salavtion for 18 years or 15 years does not matter I am 40. I was told I had ocd region last year and tore me apart. It does make sense I have also ptsd and bipolar. How do I know if I have repented and am saved? I feel numb to God. Never any love or change in my heart. I don’t belive good works save me. I know the Bible in my head but how do you know Jesus? I am tired and need a heart change but how does that happens with ocd? Forget about church they can’t handle me and have tried to help but given up. Been told I have been oppressed by demons pray harder trust God more ect. I feel depressed and take my anger out on my kids age 14 10 and 9 and husband. I feel alone and taking medicine does not help. I take my meds for bipolar and anxity. How can I be sure God has saved me or I want God? I am mad at God and been told it’s was sin. I think it is but why did I have to be abused as a kid and have mental health issues and now ocd junk. I don’t have the fruit of the spirit. My mind is in torment sometime and numb myself out with tv sleep drinks food pills ect. Where is Jesus ? Why can’t I have assurence? Just being real and the church is scared of me or I overwhelm people. Jesus offeres peace and rest and I don’t have that. I want my sins forgiven and be loved by God and have him as a my father. Dortine does matter saying the sinners prayer does not save me and I am lost and confused. I don’t want to go to hell. Please anyone have anything to say. I don’t have support

I can’t. I’m so scared. I don’t want to deny the HOLY SPIRIT. I keep having intrusives that make me question my real intentions.

If you suffer from Christian OCD and feel Jesus hates you and you’re going to hell every few seconds but I keep fighting it because when I pray it says Lucifer and I refuse to pray to him. If I do Jesus will send me to hell. I’m terrified. When does it end. Some Christian’s are so peaceful, I want that.. why.. I feel cursed forever. I have faith in others journey… not mine. I’m stuck like this forever. My mind will never be the same.
