Intrusive blasphemous thoughs towards Jesus

I thought I was the only one who experience this kind of thoughts. I've been struggling intrusive blasphemous thoughs and sexual scenarios towards Jesus every minutes and seconds it so distressful to me. These thoughts inside my head also affects my church services as member of liturgical ministry during Eucharistic mass celebration. This lead me to asked myself "maybe I am bad person pretending to be a follower of Christ." Everytime I feel shame and guilt these thoughts much even getting worse. Asking myself several times "Am I going to hell? Am I mocking God? Am I experiencing a spiritual warfare or demonic attacks even I filled with the Holy Spirit? Am I committed a blasphemy against the Holy Spirit? Am I suffering from a mental disorder?" These questions made me realize that this was just my thought and I found out from the internet that these intrusive thoughts are severe symptoms of scrupulosity OCD. I'm afraid to share this with my family and friends because I'm scared to be judge. My dear brothers and sisters of Christ I respectfully ask for your advices. Please include me to your prayers. 🙏

Not to add reassurance but people who have done the “unforgivable” sin wouldn’t know it. They are at a point of no return and Jesus knows and sees that they won’t be repenting

God is the Creator. God knows and understands the limitations of the human mind, including the egodystonic, intrusive thoughts involved in OCD. God knows the suffering of the world. God knows the trials we experience. Jesus knows your heart. He knows you don’t choose to experience this. OCD will make you question these statements… “but what if my heart is bad? But what if I am choosing this”. This is simply the nature of the disorder. God is all-knowing. Trust in the Lord Jesus Christ with all of your heart, he is merciful and he is forgiving, and he will help lead you to peace and recovery from OCD through correct treatment: exposure and response prevention. God loves you. God wants you to be well and prosper. God wants you to get the help you need, and help you heal. Jesus guided my steps into the right direction in discovering my OCD diagnosis, and led me to find the right treatment. I give all of the Glory to God for my ability to be here and functioning without OCD always in the drivers seat of my mind.

Hey, so what you are describing is text book OCD. You are not alone in this. Do you have a therapist? I suggest psychotherapy, it really helps!

Religious OCD, ashamed of my thoughts

I am a christian guy who grew up in a christian community and family. For as long as i remember, ive had horrible thoughts about all kinds of things that i dont know where to begin. Due to my extreme thoughts, i feel as if i am unworthy of practicing my religioin, such as praying, reading, meditating, etc. I feel ashamed when i go to church, as if i dont belong there because i feel like i am secretely evil, and that God knows i am evil and i am committing blasphemy by going there, and refusing to "repent", from my thoughts. But then again, my thoughts are just thoughts, sure. So whats the problem? - The problem is that in my faith, i have been taught that we must control our thoughts, so they do not get power over us to make us commit sin. Such as "If you think lustfully about a woman, you have already committed adultery with her in your heart". This verse has killed my self esteem, due to the constant unwanted sexual and disturbing thoughts. It makes me feel like a monster, who secretely just wants to abuse and be horrible to people, even though i know very well i do not want this. Sometimes i think horrible things about the people i love very much, such as my girlfriend. It feels so wrong and evil, even though i know it isnt my true will.

Scrupulosity

Been having blasphemous intrusive thoughts about God. Then sometimes I’m really struggling and I feel resentful, sometimes even towards God, which I know is not right, I want to have reverence. But it feels like sometimes I think the blasphemous thoughts on purpose because of my anger. I don’t know if this is an OCD issue or an issue of my heart or both. But yeah I don’t know what to do.

Religious OCD

I keep having disgusting sexual and intrusive thoughts about God Jesus, Holy Spirit I feel hopeless and like there’s nothing left for me. What if this is who I am and how I think I can’t even pray without having thoughts or images.
