Unforgivable sin
I’m currently in a very dark place I need some help. Are there Christians on this app who have got over the fear over the unforgivable sin? It makes me want to die.

I’m gonna guess by the fact that you feel grief over this and that it is a forgivable sin, people who commit unforgivable sins usually have a psycho pathic condition or something where they cannot feel shame for their actions, and that’s part of what makes them so terrifying .people with OCD usually feel like they have committed horrible acts when they really didn’t do anything I’m talking for personal experience here.I wish you the best I’m sorry that you’re struggling.
Literally, god sent his only son to die for our sins so literally almost every sin is forgivable that’s the whole point of Christianity, and the point of Jesus dying on the cross. Otherwise we would still all be Jewish as Jesus would not have come to save us for our sins.
Yeah, the unforgivable sin is very scary. I am obsessing over it all the time. It gets so bad I keep getting bad thoughts about the holy Spirit all the time. I can't even have peace with him anymore. But the unforgivable sin has definitely taken a toll on my life but I'm grateful that God is merciful and loving.
Mark DeJesus offers podcasts on exactly this subject as well as other scrupulosity issues. I can honestly say his content changed my life. I hope it can do the same for you!

@cupcake7531 Thank you so much! :)
I am not a Christian... can you tell me what is unforgiven sin? I mean I am trying to resolve the fact the we were created sinners intentionally by God, with things happening according to God's Will. Knowledge and plan, with a sin being unforgiven.
Hey there, this was a HUGE theme for me. Became suicidal over it, so let me just say I understand where you’re at. This reply is not meant for reassurance, it’s meant for clarity to the passage and empathy with you. Understanding the passage, from its biblical and Jewish frame of reference is key. Our emotions and experiences need to take a backseat on this one! Also, want to add, that with OCD, we sometimes need to do the hard exposures for our nervous system to calm down enough and then we can study the passage in its context. A beloved Bible teacher of mine set the record straight on what this passage means. He is European and has a bit of an accent, but below is his teaching on the topic of the unpardonable sin. It’s probably not what you think. In this struggle with you. Give it a listen and may our God of all comfort be with you as you press into the hard things. You can do it, step by step, exposure by exposure. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/beth-ariel-messianic-congregation/id424442736?i=1000375607129
Is anyone else here a Christian dealing with ocd? I could use some support because I've been having a hard time growing close to God ever since my ocd started getting bad. I deal with a lot of religious intrusive thoughts such as being unforgivable, or being cursed or possessed. What's some advice?
I had a blasphemous thought against the holy spirit s few days ago a bc it’s been on my mind. So today i asked my mom: “ does God take someone’s life away if they committed the sin of blasphemy” and she responded with “Maybe yes or maybe no, he can maybe give that person days to live until the destin...
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 curse...
