Do you know how to escape? If you believe what you say, then a demon, some false thing in which you trust, possesses you. He's gotten into your very nature your soul or conscience. From there, he "guides" you ("Let your conscience be your guide.") to destruction. He will not come out until you, personally, 1) cause him to leave and 2) replace his nature/doctrine with God's nature/Spirit or "Guide."
Are you with me? The doctrine/demon must be destroyed and it can only be destroyed by making God's truth your "master" that is, scripture. So right here, right now, pray God to take away your sin guilt and sin/demon nature in the name and blood of Jesus Christ and receive His truth that "whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Ro 10:13) Not only will you, "believing with your whole heart"/will (Acts 8:37) be justified, reconciled to God, but He will give you His nature and His image the Holy Spirit and the Holy Ghost against which Satan can never prevail again.
What you are bound by are the thoughts and intents put in your heart by the devil. You need to start all over "as a child" (of God) learning from the Spirit, the Bible, the doctrines of God. Old things must (and will) pass away; behold, all things will become new.
It's just like this blaspheming the Spirit question of yours. You desire not to blaspheme but you don't have the spiritual "eyes" to see what it is. So the answer to that is to trust the Spirit who you blasphemed trust the scriptures, and not what you "understand!"

Good!i AM READING THIS very intently.
Jay, God says that He will make you into a new creation new person. He even gives you a body as it pleases Him, 1Cor 15:38. Not the old one that harbors all that sin and shame and ugly past. When Jesus spoke to the heart of the demon possessed man of the Gadarenes (Mt 8:29-31), it was that man's will, choosing to believe Jesus, that made the demons flee! You need to desire to start anew. Jesus is who you need to hear and believe now.So all I have to do is foresake my past and all gods no matter what hold they have on me and trust that Jesus has me saved? No matter how horrible my thoughts or how terrible I was or am I just go forget it and go to God now? I am so caught up in some demon that I would have to go stop working to feel this.
Thank you sir so much
One cannot be a follower of Christ and not be a disciple. That is, he/she must learn from Him, praying to Him, studying His word, allowing Christ to live through his/her life. You can't just say, "Forgive me, Jesus," and go back to doing the same old thing. That won't cost you your salvation -- it's impossible to lose it -- but it will cost you relationship with Christ. This is when your guilt overwhelms your faith, your prayers don't seem to rise past the ceiling, and your best efforts avail you nothing.So my whole heart has to go with God no matter what happens to me.
If I am saved because I did all the vocal things I did is God now waiting for me to walk in his path?
I say and say this repent thing and never go anywhere. But yet I have this crying urge to leave and i don't know how
I am not sure about your last sentence.And we are praying for you. "Please have mercy on him and bless him!!!" Jesus cares about you more than you do!!! So, trust Him.
"And don't quit."
"'Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.'" (Matthew 11:28-30)
"It takes time to learn; all our lives we will be learning how to walk with Jesus, love any and all people, and do what He personally leads us to do > all the time > 'The LORD will guide you continually,' we have in Isaiah 58:11."
His "yoke", I believe, is His love and leading, in His peace.
You are not some special case who is the only one who cannot do what you need, while others have been able. We all have been failures and unable. We all have needed to humble ourselves to God, for all He alone is able to do with us.
And we are compassionate, knowing how we have not been able to get anything right, without God > "He can have compassion on those who are ignorant and going astray, since he himself is also subject to weakness." (Hebrews 5:2)
No, when you are saved, you already gave it into God's hands to do with, through you, what He wants to do. Now pray .. wait .. and listen. What are the doors that are open to you? even if you sold everything, you'd have to do it with some purpose in mind — not just being a bum.if I shall fall away from my life, I do not want all of the things I write to go to waste. I want them to stay.
I have this odd feeling to do what the spirit says and quit my job and follow Christ for without God is nothing.
I honestly feel like being a vagrant and tying to help them.
I mean if I am to follow God wouldn't that mean giving up my worldly money?
What I mean is that we Christians have had sin problems. And we have discovered that only God is able to correct us and heal us of our sin-sick stuff.And we are compassionate, knowing how we have not been able to get anything right, without God > "He can have compassion on those who are ignorant and going astray, since he himself is also subject to weakness." (Hebrews 5:2)
I just found this passage Matthew 3:28
"28 Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:
29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation:"
The question is, "How is it to be understood that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is unpardonable?" As to other sins, no matter how grievous or gruesome, there is pardon for them. There is forgiveness for David's sin of adultery, dishonesty, and murder (II Sam. 12:13; Psalm 51; cf. Psalm 32); for the "many" sins of the woman of Luke 7; for the prodigal son's "riotous living" (Luke 15:13, 21-24); for Simon Peter's triple denial accompanied by profanity (Matt. 26:74, 75; Luke 22:31, 32; John 18:15-18, 25-27; 21:15-17); and for Paul's preconversion merciless persecution of Christians (Acts 9:1; 22:4; 26:9-11; I Cor. 15:9; Eph. 3:8; Phil. 3:6). But for the man who "speaks against the Holy Spirit" there is no pardon.
Why not? Here, as always when the text itself is not immediately clear, the historical context must be our guide. See Luke 11:15, 18; Mark 3:22; cf. John 7:20; 8:48, 52; 10:20. From it we learn that the bitter opponents of Jesus have been ascribing to Satan what the Holy Spirit, through Christ, was achieving. Moreover, they were doing this willfully, deliberately. In spite of all the evidences to the contrary they were still affirming that Jesus was expelling demons by the power of Beelzebul. Now to be forgiven implies that the sinner be truly penitent. Among the opponents such genuine sorrow for sin was totally lacking. For penitence they substituted hardening; for confession, plotting. Thus, by means of their own criminal and completely inexcusable callousness, they were dooming themselves. Their sin was unpardonable because they were unwilling to tread the path that leads to pardon. For a thief, an adulterer, and a murderer there is hope. The message of the gospel may cause him to cry out, "O God be merciful to me, the sinner." But when a man has become hardened, so that he has made up his mind not to pay any attention to the promptings of the Spirit, not even to listen to his pleading and warning voice, he has placed himself on the road that leads to perdition. He has sinned the sin "unto death" (I John 5:16; see also Heb. 6:4-8).
For anyone who is truly penitent, no matter how shameful his transgressions may have been, there is no reason to despair (Psalm 103:12; Isa. 1:18; 44:22; 55:6, 7; Mic. 7:18-20; I John 1:9) (Hendriksen 1975:138-139).
