Did I committed the Unpardonable Sin ??

[leo7alves]

Hi, english is not my natural language, so I will try to speak simple

Many years ago, I got mad with my mother, and she said something about the bible to me, I got angry and said a awful word about God. I don't remember my age exactly, but it was less than 11, because it was when my father was still alive (he died when i was 10).

It's 11:55 pm here in my country, I was watching the movie "The Passion of the Christ " and for some reason I remembered these awful words I said years ago, I already thought about this before but didn't care too much, but now my OCD come very strong, and that's why I'm creating this thread

It's mostly because of this verse too:

"Therefore I say unto you, Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men; but the blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven.
And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him; but whosoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in that which is to come."
Matthew 12:31,32

So, am I screwed forever ????
Some say the only unpardonable sin today is to die in unbelief, whats the true after all ?? Can what I said be considered a Unpardonable Sin, even if I was only a kid?

After 50+ hours of researching the sin: if you're afraid you've committed it, you haven't

That being said, because you have OCD, reassurance probably won't ever help you. It sucks, big time, but we with OCD just have to accept that we might never feel 100% confident about things. God is a forgiving, merciful God who wants everyone to be saved. Hang in there, I'll pray for you right now.

Can I see some of this 50+ hours because the unpardonable sin is a big stressor for me I really just want peace in Christ like i used to have.

There is a reason the sin is unpardonable, and that's because you cannot confess it while in the sin. If you are blaspheming the Holy Spirit, you are denying His convicting power. Without that, you cannot confess the sin to be forgiven. That is why if you are asking for pardon, you cannot have committed it.

If it's a verbal act, why would it have to be continual? If I tell a lie, I am guilty of lying as soon as I speak the lie. Why wouldn't any other verbal sin be the same? I'd love to not be condemned without a hope but it doesn't look good for me right now.

Paul was fond of using marriage as an analogy for a few things. If you think of your relationship to God as being like a marriage, could any marital relationship survive that kind of rejection? I think it would stress it, at the very least. That doesn't mean that relationship can't be repaired, as long as the abuse doesn't continue.

If you tell a lie, without knowing it is a lie, then it is not a sin, it is a mistake. If you tell a lie, on purpose or by mistake, you can always correct it later, and thus show your repentance. Blaspheming the Holy Spirit is not a one time thing. It is an attitude change; you decide to believe erroneously, that the Holy Spirit would never reach you in such and such a way. If you are open to changing the belief, it is not a sin or blasphemy, but a mistake of theology. Once you decide the Holy Spirit will never reach you by such and such a way, you cut yourself off from that particular grace of God. That is why the sin is unforgiveable. Gill's commentary has a couple pages expanding this idea. I will quote a little bit. http://www.biblestudytools.com/commentaries/gills-exposition-of-the-bible/matthew-12-32.html http://www.biblestudytools.com/commentaries/gills-exposition-of-the-bible/matthew-12-31.html

"it shall not be forgiven him:not because the Holy Ghost is greater than Christ; or for want of efficacy in the blood of Christ; or because God cannot pardon it; but because such persons wilfully, maliciously, and obstinately oppose the Spirit of God, without whom there can be no application of pardon made; and remain in hardness of heart, are given up to a reprobate mind, and die in impenitence and unbelief, and so there is no forgiveness for them, neither in this world, nor in the world to come; that is; they shall never be forgiven"

This is not about a single utterance, but a change in lifestyle that blocks the person's own ability to receive from God. Read the context also: the people to whom this was addressed would never have gone to another and wondered if they had committed such a sin. They were certain they had not. That is part of the attitude change.
