• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Hey you guys. I have been going through A LOT. I wanted to thank everyone who has been helping me through these things with love, patience, and understanding. Things were a lot better up until today. My mind started thinking all sorts of really not so great things. I do feel/think I committed the unpardonable sin because of these thoughts. They arent thoughts of saying curse words at God or Jesus. They are much much worse and anytime they pop up I freak out and do this twitching thing repeating no because I don't want those thoughts nor do I believe them. I have asked God for forgiveness but the unpardonable sin thing is coming back up and I'm scared this time I truly committed it. I NEVER want to deliberately reject God or Jesus. Yet my thoughts keep saying nasty things like that and I am truly scared that me asking for forgiveness was too late since I committed that sin. I started to rebuke satan and his lies in Jesus's name. I told the enemy to get out of my room, my house, my mind in Jesus's name about 4 or 5 times, and on the last time, I accidentally said the enemy's name instead of Jesus and I am scared I committed it. I don't know if I am forgiven if I truly committed this unpardonable sin. Please help me

I have experience similar to you. And for my long journey with OCD, I just realized that we just need to trust god. I have spend time reading bible a hour everyday and also praying, This helps me a lot. OCD might not related to spiritual but everything will be okay, just trust in god that he will be with you all this tough journey. Although sometimes we don’t feel him, but he really is. Not give up. He have great plans for us.

Also, I suggest you to find a workship song that you liked and play the song again and again. Try to looks deeply song lyrics. These help me to feel peace and feel like I can really trust in our God.

And also I recommend you to listen to “Back to shore”. It’s a Christian song and I think it really suite our situation. That we passed a lot of struggles and find love in Jesus.

My mind started thinking all sorts of really not so great things. I do feel/think I committed the unpardonable sin because of these thoughts. They are thoughts of saying curse words at God or Jesus. They are much much worse and anytime they pop up I freak out and do this twitching thing repeating no because I don't want those thoughts nor do I believe them. I have asked God for forgiveness but the unpardonable sin thing is coming back up and I'm scared this time I truly committed it.

I went through a time, years ago, where I had these type of thoughts invade my mind. My tongue even slipped at times, and I felt so horrible to even allow it. You have something in common with me, we are convicted of it being wrong. The conviction is the Holy Spirit in you, guiding your heart's true desire, because of your faith in Jesus. You may be under attack by the enemy, but know that God's grace, for you, conquers all your battles. Just allow God to help you. That is when the battle will be won, and God is glorified in your life. Try to praise God, by speaking it out, silently, quietly, or loudly, whatever makes you comfortable. Do this, when these thoughts attack you.

When Jesus was crucified on the cross, there were two others alongside him, being crucified. Both at first mocked Jesus, while they hung on the cross next to him. Then, one had a change of heart, and believed in Jesus. Jesus, acknowledging their faith, assured them, they would see Jesus in heaven that day.

The only unpardonable sin, is blaspheming the Holy Spirit. In my continued studying of the Bible, God has lead me to see it is unpardonable sin, where you have rejected God out right. Your heart can not even comprehend acknowledging His existence. In that sense, if your whole being can not accept God at all, how can you accept his forgiveness and love. You really have to try hard to get to this point. Your struggles show, you are no where near this point. So rest in the peace of Jesus Christ.

Imagine every time you "feel" you committed an unpardonable sin, you've ran away from God... To the tallest mountain, to the lowest depths, to the darkest cave. But just when you think you've gotten away from His presence, due to sin, you take a small peak behind you. And there God is, with his arms open wide, he's followed you where ever you have gone. :)

I do the little head shake too, you’re not alone. I’ve said plenty of things in my head to God that I never meant, that’s just the nature of OCD. You’re going to think the most bizarre things in your head, and more often than not, you will worry about it. I just want you to know that I’ve had these problems too.

Yep it's the ocd and that's that. All you have to do is decide to believe it. It's a decision also to believe in and follow Christ. The unpardonable sin has nothing to do with the things you think it does, it's to forever reject the gospel. If you're coming here worried about having committed it then you haven't committed it. Don't let the spirit behind your ocd lie to you. John 1:1 speaks of Jesus. John 3:16 says what the Father did with Jesus for us and if you read those words there is no suffix saying: except for those with ocd.

You don't have anything to worry about. This article explains what the unpardonable sin actually is:

[QUOTE="Your heart can not even comprehend acknowledging His existence. [/QUOTE]


What about the doubts I have had...I doubted His existence and I will say it got better once I stopped worrying about the unpardonable sin and my doubts. I looked around me andGod was all I could see. Right now I am worrying so its hard again. I am very worried that God isn't with me anymore because I just feel so difficult and so evil that I chased Him away. I don't want to have doubt or fear or even these nasty thoughts. I never want to reject Christ no matter what these evil thoughts say. I yell back at them with a no.

I was once saying something like "I love the Holy Ghost" repeatedly and then accidentally said something else that would be blasphemous against the Holy Ghost if I had meant it, but I did not mean it, it was an accident. So I was forgiven, because blasphemy is something that comes out of the heart. Since then I still feel drawn to God, I love Him and want to please Him. And in particular I have felt the precense of the Holy Ghost. He even spoke to me through another Spirit filled Christian the other day.

So unless you really genuinely hate God and meant what you said, I think you can be forgiven. Blasphemy is not something you do by accident, it really does come from the heart, and is intentional either as hatred or disregard for God who is Holy.

Again you need to read the ,25 tips for successfully treating OCD.

You also need to think, is any skill or ability or legal right you have based on how you ' feel ' ?

In the same way your cityzenship of heaven is not based or dependant on how you ' feel ' ! ! ! !

Shocking isn't it. You are a Christian not because you feel not because you are good or nice, or white, or American etc etc etc
But
Because Jesus chose you before he created the universe, he picked you.

He knows your brain is misfiring, sending the wrong signals that confuse you.
He knows, he knows how confused you get, how worried you get.

Your task is to hang on in there, to live as best you can to honour and glorify Jesus, that those people around you who have none of your problems will have no excuse for not also seeking to honour and glorify Jesus.

I was coming back from running and I was picturing in my head and and was carefully saying the Holy Spirit is I accept the Holy Spirit is alive and good as I was saying “I accept the Holy Spirit is...” at the same time I pictured the word ‘alive’ and I was saying alive but I stopped in the middle of the word and accidentally whispered and froze on Ali like the opposite. I stopped and shook my head like a dog and was so terrified by what I said And I immediately told God and Jesus I meant to say the Holy Spirit is alive and good. I ask for their forgiveness. Did I commit a sin?

If you said something you thought was true, but turned out not to be, and you wouldn't have said it if you'd known, is that sin?

I know it is alive and good. I always respect and love it. I was just trying to pronounce the word alive right.

Now I have another big worry! I was sitting at my computer with my mother working on this 2d animation project and I was saying I don’t regret praying to you Jesus. And in my head I accidentally almost said I don’t regret praying to you S**** then stopped myself. Then I was talking in my head I was talking to Jesus trying to explain that I don’t regret praying to you Jesus. Then I said to Jesus, it is not like I’m calling you S****. Then I tried saying that it is not like I’m saying you’re S then I jumped and said and said to him in my head but your not S****. I did not mean to call Jesus the devil in my head while speaking to him. I prayed to God and Jesus to forgive me and say to them one at a time I would never call your/you the S name. I pleaded to them to forgive please forgive me deep down in heart. Did I commit a sin!

You're fine. God knows that. Also, the Holy Spirit is a person, not a thing.
