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!

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

What if I don’t deserve..
A good life, success, healing, beautiful things? ⚠️ Important: please don’t read if this is triggering. No one should think this way about themselves, of course you deserve it all. I struggle with real events and harm OCD. My worst fear is being a bad person, causing harm or doing the wrong thing. These thoughts haunt me all the time and cause me to essentially throw my life away. I don’t go out, pursue opportunities, etc. because what if I don’t deserve them? I think of the worst things I’ve ever done all the time. The things that I’m most ashamed of. Like a broken record that’s all I replay in my head. Doesn’t matter if it was 5 or 10 years ago. And I beat myself up for not doing better. And I just don’t know how to move past it. I’ve read a lot of quotes and books about self help and love and acceptance (e.g. once you know better, do better). But for me I feel like I have to hate myself forever. I won’t ever get a clean slate, there’s a permanent stain on my record. I just can’t forgive myself, whether other people know it or not, I can’t allow myself to move forward. It’s about integrity for me. Does anyone relate? How do you do it? I’m so sorry if you’re also struggling. I don’t wish this for anyone. Please keep fighting, you’re not alone. ❤️

Real Event Ocd
Hi there I talk about religion (but I'm not trying to force it down anyone's throat) So my main event (which is the one that truly bothers me) happened in 2015 when I was 14. I won't go into any details or anything. I will say that it got so bad once that I almost committed something detrimental to my health earlier this year. Not long after that I spoke to a doctor and basically confessed what's been happening to my brain and my mistakes, he mentioned things that really resonated with me, I'll paraphrase a bit: "Okay, so what you did was not good but it's not something to condemn yourself for. It falls into the grey area, you've apologized and have been forgiven (even though I apologized over text, which comes across cowardly)but it seems that you haven't forgiven yourself. There's a whole lot of difference between you at 14 and you at 23. Try to have some perspective." This really helped and it still does, but unfortunately ocd tries to find a way around this. I'll get a thought of "oh but you forgot to mention that other part of the event" and it magnifies it. Can anyone relate? I've done everything but fully move on because I sometimes feel like I don't deserve to move on. And I'm still worried over the future.

Hell
Does anyone question that they'll go to hell because of your intrusive thoughts. I feel so scared about that because I grew up Catholic
