No matter what you have done, if you ask for forgiveness God WILL forgive you. For example, Paul, one of the most prominent New Testament bible figures was responsible for the deaths of many Christians, and yet he asked for forgiveness and was forgiven and moved on to do amazing things. God's grace through Jesus is greater than any wrong we could do, and when we ask for forgiveness, He entirely erases our sins, and so we should consider them wiped out too, although this is difficult. When you accept Jesus he is able to forgive you all your sins, both past and future and your belief in Jesus is what will grant you access to eternal life with God, not anything we could do. Jesus suffered on earth in the human form and so he understands what it is like for you, and so God does as well. Hope this helps and wasn't too confusing, will pray for u and I hope you're doing ok and persevering

Oh man can I relate to you infinity percent ? I feel like my ocd made me do something I knew would trigger me as well just to get rid of a current theme i had. It's brought me immense guilt ever since. That's the same thing I tell myself in my head but with pocd. Sometimes I get the same feelings of not being worthy of God nor heaven. But at the end of the day I know that's not what God's word says and anything that says otherwise is a lie from the pits of hell. I'm a Christian who relies on God for everything including my ocd. He's my one and only hope for recovery really. Without Him i would've most likely turned crazy.

Thank you everyone for your feedback. I couldn’t look right away because I knew it would set it off. Reading your comments made me uncomfortable and then even worse made me happy, I actually got excited thinking I was going to find out someone did something the same as I did. Which made me for a second question if I didn’t care I did it, and writing this is making me feel sick, and then I think what if I don’t feel sick really? What if I just Hope I do? Which is because it takes a while to even feel grossed out anymore, I usually get an initial feeling of liking it which I know is also OCD. I’m just so numb to it all.

I used to have religious OCD. Still kinda do. Accidentally thought something bad about God once, panicked thought something bad about the Holy Spirit. Fell into doom. This was recently after recomitting myself to Christ. Since then I pretty much gave up. Unfortunately, it also led to me compromising my morals many times because I figured I was going to hell anyway. I wish I knew what OCD was then. I think it would have saved me a lot of pain. I no longer have a relationship with God, and fear I never will again.

So, alot has changed. I'm Christian and currently believe we are in the end of times. It's changed my whole perspective on life. I quit my job and moved back in with family, starting to go to church, apologized to those I hurt except, one person who I talked to two family members and they told me to delete the message and with my other apology ( that i also believed was God telling me to confess in 2020) i lied at some parts because of shame and confusing myself most likely intentionally. I confessed everything to my dad and he says since i turned from it, repented, that i need to let it go and continue forward. Since then, my minds been saying that I'm outside of God's will and everything's gone down hill. I had also prayed that God exposed me and now it's like all this evil and wickedness that feels like it's coming out of my heart settles into my chest. I've prayed to God, worshipped to God, but thoughts and images of being sent to hell or my loved ones pops into my head and I've gone to sleep twice each night accepting the fact that because of me not doing so may have doomed me and my loved ones and I feel scared that I got so tired and stopped fighting it. I've had ocd since I was 7 but it just is so scary because it's hitting down to the wire and I'm scared that I was never a child of God at all I mean I have iniquity I thought I repented for but people I love still struggle with what I've done and I prayed for them and tried to help them and suggest therapy but I haven't did what I could to make it right like I should've. But these images and thoughts they're horrible. I feel like I'm against God truly and I'm like Lord change the circumstances and I won't resist so that I can preach Your word and everyday I feel like I'm gambling. It's like every thought is biblical for the most part. I don't want to kill myself cuz what if I have a chance that God will have mercy on me but....

I put a trigger warning because I will be discussing themes of end of times. I feel like I'm not following God's will. God knows ultimately that things were going to speed up end of times wise. A few months ago, I had a random thought to call someone I had affected with past sin and apologize to him although I did not know he was there, my sin affected him. I know he deserves an apology, but I chalked it up to ocd and treated it as such for months fast forward to now I feel like I'm completely against God. Horrifying. It's a complex situation I caused and therefore though I know he deserves an apology I'm really scared as I created a mess of things. I've been praying that God help certain things come to fruition so I could be exposed and help minister to others if that's what He's calling me to do but no answer. Instead horrible images and thoughts and feelings of doom. I see signs to apologize everywhere. I'm at my wits end. Because I tend to get ahead of myself I asked two family members and they said don't and then I see things that say Though people in your life mean well, don't go based on what they say only what God says. I tell God to do His will and I'll follow, do you think He'll listen. I even told Him I straight up don't want to do it, not because He doesn't deserve one, but because last time I apologized to someone else I didn't do it right and it was messy. I feel so evil, like a wolf in sheep's clothing. I also remember looking up morbid things for what???? Only to be disturbed pray about it and leave by why search it up again? I also fantasized alot about guys I've been single forever, late 20s now, I'm trying to go to church and my crush is there and I try to stop thinking about him because I know it's delusional but the thoughts don't leave. I'm so tired I want to stop but stop what? Living? I want to stick to God as close as possible. I'm going crazy.
