I think I have a good grasp on blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is but there is a slight part of me that isn’t fully sure. I have been struggling with the thought of perhaps I’ve committed it. It scares me beyond belief to think that. The reason why I am thinking this is because I have been learning lots about the NAR and have seen some vile things that I am pretty sure was quite demonic. My heart is to never persecute the body of Christ or hate what is of God. However, I’ve seen some stuff that I really think is demonic and I’m afraid because just in case I have committed blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. But I have compared some of these events to the Word of God and it’s so far from it. If somebody could give me a peace of mind or more clarity regarding my situation please and thank you.

I accepted Jesus 6 years ago as my Lord and Saviour and was baptized soon after. I truly want to love and trust Christ with all my heart and serve him completely.

Prayer request:
If you feel led I would greaaaatly appreciate some prayer for this season I’m going through. I haven’t been feeling so close to the Lord the past year; but I’d say more recently the last months. I’ve been learning a lot about false teachers and Apologetics but kind of neglected my personal time with the Lord. In addition,there has been a lot of tests and I’ve been tempted and gave in to sin. I’m really afraid to lose the conviction of the Holy Spirit and I want a true repentant heart. Also my faith has been wavering quite a bit and I feel really ashamed for that. My heart so deeply wants to love Christ with all I am but my actions and thoughts don’t really model that. I want to feel so close to the Lord again, feel in love and feel like a friend of his (even though before I didn’t think I was close to him, but now I realize I was closer or at different place with him I prefer than I am in now ?) If my brothers and sisters in the Lord could pray for conviction of the Holy Spirit, true and deep repentance, strength to resist sin, unwavering faith in Christ, a heart that deeply loves and seeks Christ above all else and peace. Please and thank you. I cant tell you how much I’m really needing prayer, it would mean so much to me. Thank you again. ?

All my love to you ?

Ps. I apologize for the lengthy post.

    Blasphemy is very intentional, it can’t be done on accident.

    Isaiah 36:20 talks as I It Sennacherib committed blasphemy by assuming Israel’s God was equal to the false gods of the surrounding nations.

    The unforgivable sin spoken by Jesus in Matthew is when Jesus (God) drives out demons and the Pharisees say it was the devil’s power that drove out the demon. The Pharisees blasphemed by giving Gods credit and glory to the devil. Like I said it has to be very intentional.

  2. Safwat Nasrat says:

    For sure it’s not blasphemy at all , just some inappropriate thoughts
    Just go repent and all will be forgiven

  3. Wayne Capell says:

    Popery is blasphemy against God and His Word.

  4. Kellie Amberlouise says:

    you have to look at scripture and who was he talking to when he said about blasphemy against the holy spirit. he was talking to the Pharisees that they totally denied jesus when he was doing miracles. they denied he was from God. be careful when reading scripture that you look at it as whole babe. look back to previous chapters to understand it. x hope that helps babe. i went through the same thing i was gripped with fear. x

  5. Wayne Capell says:

    Presuming to speak for God defined as Popery is blasphemy against God and His Word.

  6. Stephen Bredehoeft says:

    Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is a continuous willful rejection of the Holy Spirit. The one unforgivable sin.

  7. David Chase says:

    If you had actually done that you would have no concerns at all!

  8. Michael Henderson says:

    Is it not the Spirit that convicts you of known sin? So no you have not committed the unpardonable sin. You are being called to repentance and pardon.

  9. Mark S. Phillips says:

    If you question whether you have committed it… you haven’t.

  10. Andy Witherall says:

    To blaspheme the Holy Spirit is to so harden your heart to Him and His work on your heart that you move beyond the ability even to repent, hence the fact that it is unforgivable. The shear fact that you are worried about it is proof that you have not committed it.

  11. Rita Frahm says:

    The fact that you care, proves you haven’t. And, you gave your heart to Jesus.

  12. Bob Acres says:

    Faith Madden When you are at your lowest is when you need Jesus the most. He knows that and is with you in those dark times.
    Jesus will not abandon you.
    We all fall. We all need help at times. Do not be afraid to ask for it.
    You are loved beyond your ability to comprehend.
    We all are.

  13. Argentino PowtotheChow Escuyos says:

    Praying for you.

  14. Madison Willoughby says:

    The blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is to reject Him to the point that He is not welcome in your life, so He leaves. This is an irreversible condition which is why it’s called the unforgivable sin. That you want prayer support and are concerned enough to ask for it is a good indication that you have not blasphemed God’s Spirit. Blasphemy really becomes obvious when you engage die hard atheists, like those on Cross Examined’s FB site. They are evil people who mock God and make no effort to hide the fact they hate Him.

    Since you are concerned, it is time to change the way you are living. Why are you hanging out in situations which allow you to witness demonic activity? Scripture tells us to flee from the appearance of evil, so fleeing from actual evil is a given, don’t you think?

    Please don’t mess around with your salvation. Once it’s gone you can’t get it back. It sounds to me that God’s Spirit is convicting you about your choices in life. Please listen. He’s trying to save your soul, but you must cooperate with Him. Choose wisely. God loves you. M.

  15. Stacy Hutchinson says:

    NAR is NOT biblical… unless you use the Passion translation which has added over 400 things, specifically to prop up NAR false teaching. Not to mention, those changes were channeled material. BAD STUFF!!! What you are seeing IS demonic in nature. The Holy Spirit is convicting you and giving you the gift of discernment.

  16. Brian Ressel says:

    Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit would be to apostasize and willfully reject God. I am on a similar journey waking up from the new age and occultism practices of the NAR and Word of Faith. Here is a thought. Maybe you are still measuring your relationship with God with their standards. They use experiences, manifestations and feelings as their evidence of their standing with the Holy Spirit. This is not biblical.

  17. Derek Brockwell says:

    God knows your heart. You sound very much like you really want to please the Lord totally but in light of the fact that you are a young Christian I would say Keep plowing forward and find a place to be with the Lord everyday in the morning before your day starts and be humble before the Lord and certainly ask for forgiveness for anything you know you have done , thought or said the day before and ask the the Lord to help you become more like Him everyday and guide and direct your steps. And by the way I am not perfect and I have been a born again believer since 1981….You’ll be fine…We all struggle with sin at times…just don’t give into the flesh with the Lord’s help….

  18. J.R. Gilligan says:

    Well first off let me say CONGRATULATIONS!!! Because the very fact you are so concerned about it is a pretty clear sign you are safe!

    Blasphemy of the Holy spirit is the final ultimate denial of the Holy Spirit. If you are saved, you have already passed this benchmark.

    I have “blasphemed” the holy Spirit in my youth. I have also said some rather stupid things as I was still waking up and in a tired stupor that definitely was “blasphemous”. But these are not what the Bible is talking about.

  19. Jelaya Stewart says:

    I’ve often felt like that too when I would see demonic activity to not associate that with the Holy Spirit because they Holy Spirit is pure. But based on the Bible I would say a lot of the stuff in nars is not biblical

  20. Uriah Hill says:

    woah, all I can say is Apostasy and Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is nothing to play with. Whether or not you committed it I can’t say for sure. However, if you still have conviction it’s highly likely you DID NOT blaspheme the Holy Spirit or commit Apostasy. Hope, it helps

  21. Frank M Snyder Sr. says:

    Good news, you did not commit the unpardonable sin! Today, blasphemy against against the Holy Spirit is to refuse Christ. It becomes unpardonable only if you die after refusing Christ! The fact that you compare what others teach and do, to the Word of God, tells me that you are His!

  22. Kagiso GyeomHa Wadikonyana says:

    Well one thing that really works to love the Lord if you don’t is to see what He did for you. Go read and meditate on Gethsemane-crucifixion stories(all gospels) and Isaiah 53, it really helps.

    I ‘ll pray for you

  23. William Mc Sr. says:

    You have not blaspheme against the holy spirit. You have being tempted by the works of evil spirit. We must do like Paul, I crucify myself daily, that mean I pray and ask God forgiveness whether I did anything wrong or not. resist the devil and he will flee from you, draw nigh to God and will draw nigh to you. We do this by fasting and prayer. All that within you cry and plead to him to have mercy. He will hear you.

  24. Jefferson D. Thatcher says:

    When Jesus mentions the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, it is when he healed someone and thee pharasees said it was the devil that did it. They simply denied that God was the one that healed in fact they denied that Jesus was from God. In that exact way, denying that Jesus is the Christ, gives one no salvation as there is no other name by which one can be saved. If we deny Him, we blaspheme the Holy Spirit. And since one denies Jesus, it is unforgettable as there is no one that can forgive.

  25. Aly Mili says:

    So sorry but what is nar?

  26. Wayne Capell says:

    Popery is blasphemy against God and His Word.

  27. Michael Chaney says:

    Faith Madden, I sent you a private message. You may have to check your message requests.

  28. Jason Edward Miller says:

    If you’re worried about it you probably have not.

  29. Franky Rivera says:

    Blasphemy of the spirit is giving the devil credit for God’s work. That’s the unforgivable sin.

  30. Argentino PowtotheChow Escuyos says:

    The only unforgettable is the rejection of Jesus Christ.

  31. Julie Waschuk says:

    My dear I hope this puts your mind at ease.

  32. Joe Bleuel says:

    Well if “church folk” were honest, you just expressed perhaps a majority opinion. I can relate.

  33. Andrea Stephens says:

    Praying for you! Your heart for the Lord and His ways is beautiful sister. I will pray for you and give some advice after praying. My past is similar but don’t give up hope because He is faithful! I will write more later. Blessings to you sweet sister!

  34. MLu Undette says:

    Indeed God hates Sin but it does not stop at WRATH. He sent us His Son to reconcile us back to the Father and cancelled the WRATH due us.

    in Christ alone, through Christ alone

  35. Tim Jones says:

    First off. You would not be afraid or have any concern in the least of blaspheming the Holy Spirit if you were in that position. The fact that your hearts desire is to know and serve Jesus is proof that you are his child. Keep trusting and seeking to grow in his love and grace and rest in him. Nothing can ever snatch you from his hands!??

  36. Arthur Adam Haglund says:

    Many people have Twisted what is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Read those sections in scripture over and over until you understand them. The Pharisees claimed the Jesus cast out demons by the power of a more powerful demon. Then Jesus told them about blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. And the Bible says that he said this because they said he had a demon poor devil depending on the translation you’re using. So blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is calling the Holy Spirit the devil if someone does a miracle and someone else says Miracles are not for today therefore it’s Satan that is working here that is the very definition fitting the pattern of scripture

  37. Pam Morgan says:

    I’m praying for you sweet sister. We all go through peaks and valleys in our walk with God. I know, because I’ve been there. If you have sinned, go to the Lord in prayer. He will forgive you freely. Also, ask Him to increase your faith, trust and reliance on Him, and ask Him to rejuvenate your love and devotion for Him. Read His Word and pray to Him every day, even when you don’t feel like it. Most of all, remember how much He loves you, so much that He suffered a tortuous death on a cross for you, and you are His precious child?. He will renew your joy and love for him. Prayers go up for you???.

  38. Samantha Finch-Finchley says:

    Blasphemy of the holy spirit was to attribute what Jesus was doing to witchcraft–to Satan’s power.

  39. Samantha Finch-Finchley says:

    Faith Madden please give this article a read. It goes through what the unforgivable sin is in context to the scripture as well as touches on disbelief etc. I found it hit on all the topics pretty much. Btw if you’re worried about having committed it, then you haven’t! One who is irrevocably damned doesn’t fear commiting sin and living a part from God. God bless.

  40. Kerri Scherban says:

    Let me just remind you, Peter himself publicly denied Christ and was forgiven. The Romans who crucified him mocked him and executed him and Jesus said “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do”(Luke 23:34)

    The Holy Spirit that resides in you and is sealed in you will never let you commit an unpardonable sin. People who do that are so hardened they don’t care one bit what they are doing.

  41. Jessica Whitten Kiser says:

    Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit means not believing in Christ.

  42. Raul Matsuda Renteria says:

    You can rest assured you have not committed blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Clearly you do not deny the Lord and clearly you do love and accept Him. Growing in faith continues until we take our last breath. Keep seeking His face before you. Your in my prayers.

    A suggestion of what blasphemy may look like.

  44. Lorna Isaacs says:

    Tim Jones what powerful words for Faith.Faith continue to study God’s Word and pray.God is love.

  45. Jim Anderson says:

    The blood of Jesus is more powerful than any sin. Therefore the only din that cannot be forgive is to diecwitjout believing in Christ as saviour. There may be some aspects of life that need to be corrected but you have NOT blasphemed the Holy Spirit. Ask His help and guidance and He will deliver you out of this confusion. Remember He is always saying one constant thing in your heart” I Love You”.
