#Have i committed the unforgivable sin how to
Although we should heed warnings to not be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin ( Hebrews 3:13), despair doesn’t bring anyone to repentance! Let’s talk about how to know you haven’t committed the unforgivable sin. This passage terrified me when I was a kid. Even though we speak like this, dear friends, we are convinced of better things in your case-the things that have to do with salvation.” But land that produces thorns and thistles is worthless and is in danger of being cursed. In the end it will be burned. Land that drinks in the rain often falling on it and that produces a crop useful to those for whom it is farmed receives the blessing of God. Hebrews 6:4-9 (NIV) “It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age and who have fallen away, to be brought back to repentance. To their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace. (The Christians who heeded Jesus’ warning about this in Matthew 24, fled to the mountains, and escaped.) It was written before the devastating destruction of Jerusalem to Jews who were in danger of going back to trusting in animal sacrifices and the Jewish system and dying in the slaughter of AD 70. Some think that the other passage, in Hebrews, has a similar context. The context of this passage was the Pharisees rejecting Jesus the Messiah and saying he did his work by the devil’s power. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.” Matthew 12:31-32 (NIV) “ And so I tell you, every kind of sin and slander can be forgiven, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. The Unforgivable Sinįirst, let’s look at the two texts that are most closely related to the concept of an unforgivable sin: There are so many Christians who’ve dealt with this, and I’d like to share what helped me.
Or maybe you’ve had someone confide in you that they were dealing with this same fear. Maybe some people are reading this who are dealing right now with the tormenting fear of having committed the unforgivable sin. Yet, I’ve experienced such joy and freedom since.
These messages so move my heart because I was there before, tormented by fear when I was 12 years old. I’ve received messages several times from people who were in anguish, fearing they had committed the unforgivable sin and no longer had any hope of being saved.
