I'm Worried I might had blasphemy the holy spirit. I was urge to Curse at it in my mind and now I'm worried if God would ever Forgive me. I accepted Jesus at my church and I was crying and felt the Holy Spirit..Now I feel like the Holy spirit is not within me and I'm not bearing fruit. I also fall into temptation and I end up sinning..I'm not perfect and I'm wondering if there's still hope for me. I wish to serve God and be filled by the Spirit but I'm not sure if ill be accepted by God. I keep being disobedient and what I did to the Spirit. Maybe I wasn't his own to begin with..I keep doubting if I even belong to God maybe I wasn't ever saved. Now I commited this unforgivable sin I feel like theres no hope

Blasphemy cannot be committed by one that is a believer in Christ. It is a non-forgivable sin, committed only by those that are not forgiven, because they have not believed in the only begotten Son of God, Jesus Christ. If they have already been forgiven of their sins, then they have not committed blasphemy, which cannot be forgiven. Because of these facts, many believe that blasphemy is the rejection of Christ as Saviour, the end result of the work of the Holy Spirit. If you have received Christ Jesus, then you have not committed this unforgivable sin. If you had committed this sin, there would be no hope of you getting it forgiven, according to our Lord.

I have had times where I had the most awful things go through my head about God, the Holy Spirit, etc. I tend to have obsessive thoughts sometimes, and usually when something is particularly appalling to me, that thought will "stick" in my head for a long time. I used to be afraid of this same thing, but then read a great article that had a nice example to explain how God is not going to judge you for these fleeting (or even persistent thoughts) that you dislike. Imagine being at a Bible study and the pastor saying that the unforgivable sin is if you think about pink elephants. Well, the harder everyone in the room tries to not think about pink elephants, the more they are going to have trouble not thinking about them. God created our minds and he knows that the things we fear the most can sometimes stick in our consciousness an terrify us. This is most likely just Satan at work trying to break you down. But remember, if you are seeking God and believe in Him, it is IMPOSSIBLE to do ANYTHING that will separate you from Him. Remember, God has not given us a Spirit of fear, but of power and a sound mind. Anything else is not from Him, and you can be delivered from it.

I'll try to dig up that article, it was very good and I'm just 19 year old newly seeking Him, so I don't have a lot of experience with this whole advice thing :)

Although there is no unpardonable sin today, there is an unpardonable state—the state of continued unbelief. There is no pardon for a person who dies in unbelief. The Bible refers to this in terms of having a hard heart. The hardening of the heart is not a one-time act. It is the progression in which sin and the conviction of the Holy Spirit are ignored. The hardened heart has no desire for the things of God. But if you have desire in your heart for God, demonstrated by your concern that you have committed some sort of unpardonable sin, you do not have a hardened heart. Your concern confirms your innocence. God always welcomes those whose hearts are sensitive toward Him.

On the other hand, if you are unsaved, that can be remedied this very moment. Salvation is by faith alone—faith in the death of Jesus Christ for your sin. You can place your faith in Him by praying a simple prayer expressing trust in Christ alone for the payment of your sin. Acknowledge your sin, accept Christ’s payment, receive His forgiveness, and thank Him for the gift of eternal life.

It would be a good idea for you to seek the advice of a doctor. You may well suffer from OCD:





Sirach (Apocrypha), chapter 38




1: Honour a physician with the honour due unto him for the uses which ye may have of him: for the Lord hath created him.




2: For of the most High cometh healing, and he shall receive honour of the king.





3: The skill of the physician shall lift up his head: and in the sight of great men he shall be in admiration.




4: The Lord hath created medicines out of the earth; and he that is wise will not abhor them.




5: Was not the water made sweet with wood, that the virtue thereof might be known?





6: And he hath given men skill, that he might be honoured in his marvellous works.





7: With such doth he heal [men,] and taketh away their pains.





8: Of such doth the apothecary make a confection; and of his works there is no end; and from him is peace over all the earth,





9: My son, in thy sickness be not negligent: but pray unto the Lord, and he will make thee whole.





10: Leave off from sin, and order thine hands aright, and cleanse thy heart from all wickedness.




11: Give a sweet savour, and a memorial of fine flour; and make a fat offering, as not being.




12: Then give place to the physician, for the Lord hath created him: let him not go from thee, for thou hast need of him.





13: There is a time when in their hands there is good success.





14: For they shall also pray unto the Lord, that he would prosper that, which they give for ease and remedy to prolong life.




15: He that sinneth before his Maker, let him fall into the hand of the physician.



LOVE

If the thoughts persistently continue, and after much prayer you are unable to defeat them **as well as allowing time to let them subside by getting your mind occupied with other things**, then please consider consulting a psychologist (Christian psychologist, preferably). I have anxiety issues, and I think they were at the root of my obsessive thoughts in this regard.
