Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit - the unforgiveable sin

[2towers]

God doesn’t love me and this is an irrefutable fact. Prove me wrong.

Praying that God grants you your wish, that you are proven wrong, and that you are saved. If this happens, please let us know for the benefit of others who may feel the same way, and for the glorification of God.

I suggest reading this parable slowly and place your self in the story you are to play the prodigal son.
You will see misery is of our own making and the further we go from God the Father the more misery we pile up.
God has made it crystal clear that he loves you.

My advice to you is to turn your life around start looking for positives in your life, stop looking inward and look outward, that is start serving others learn humility and pray to Jesus Christ, His Mother Mary and you have a multitude of Saints and Angels all waiting to serve you.

At the moment the best thing to do is go to confession and receive Holy Communion and pray for deliverance from the grip of Satan and you will find Christ the healer waiting to put a ring on your finger and celebrate your return.

if you can defeat him long enough to say this over and over as much as you can in your head as well as audible.
Immaculate Heart of Mary I trust in you
Merciful Heart of Jesus I trust in you
Holy Spirit free me
Divine Father help me
as much as you can and you will find peace because the Devil is a liar and when your Holy Family is around he can’t stay, you need to invite God into your soul not him.
Bishop Sheen always put me straight give him a try

If you need to talk more I’m here to help and I will pray for you.

we should make it clear that scrupulosity and the anxiety and issues it causes are not the unforgivable sin.

I don’t want a scrupulant to read this thread and then get all worked up wondering if they committed the unforgivable sin when they were having a bad time.

Scrupulants aren’t refusing to repent. They are willing to accept God.

OK. To me, the notion of “Jesus died for me so he must love me” is all very abstract. This is something that happened 2000+ years ago by a person who I never knew.

Now, if Jesus and I were both kidnapped by modern-day terrorist, and the head terrorist came to us and said “We are going to kill one of you. Which will it be?” and Jesus volunteered to be the one, OK. I could relate to that. But simply saying he died for my sins [2000 years ago] doesn’t faze me.

I need something in the Here and Now. I need hard facts. I need evidence. How about He answer a prayer once in a while? And before you say something like “God answers all prayers, but sometimes the answer is ‘No’”, or “God has something better in mind” or “Sometimes it is hard to understand God’s plan” sorry; I’ve heard all that before. As far as I am concerned if God doesn’t answer my prayers “my way” then they have not been answered. “Ask and you shall receive, With God all things are possible, etc.” If God doesn’t come through then I say He has reneged on his promise.

Tell me this: Am I correct to assume that God wants my soul in Heaven with Him someday?

These quotes are very confusing to me. Does timeframe change the nature of what Christ already accomplished? No. That is like saying, well, my mom gave birth to me over 40 years ago, its no longer relevant to me. She is no longer my mom and I don’t love her. Kind of a ludicrous statement.

Going back to your original post and my response, we look to the cross to have proof that God loves us. If you choose to look to the cross and spurn what he did, then you are making the conscious decision to blaspheme the Holy Spirit. Our genuine prayer is that you look to the cross and receive God’s grace. God bless you. Again, if you ever need some personal prayer, or even a friendly ear, feel free to PM me.

Just out of curiosity, you mentioned prayers that were not being answered. Would you care to elaborate on what prayers that you have that aren’t being answered? It seems you have something heavy on your heart.

Your question is a prayer. This prayer is prayed throughout the psalms, called laments. It’s a very human prayer to make.

Why is my adult son alone and subject to lust? I ask God that alot. There is no solution to the problem, but I still make the prayer.
Sometimes there’s nothing can be done but to bleed at the foot of the Cross.

Does the time frame change? I suppose not. But my ability to relate to an event 2000 years ago and impacted millions of people, and a more recent event that affected me personally are two different things. They don’t impact me the same way.

Prayers not being answered? Too many to mention. But again, if I do not get the result I want, then as far as I’m concerned they have fallen on deaf ears.

And it’s not as though I’m praying to win the Lottery or that my favorite football team wins. I’m talking about things like I don’t lose my job (and have a few times, despite praying that it wouldn’t happen). It just seems to me that God doesn’t care.

And again, does God want my soul in Heaven with Him someday? Yes or No.

Yes, but whose choice is that? Clearly it impacts many people in the same way, so it does not appear that the timeframe is the deciding factor from an objective standpoint.

I understand not wanting to get too specific or personal. It just seemed like there was something especially burdening you. I wasn’t trying to pry. Just wanted to see if there was a way I could help or provide some level of comfort. Or pray for you.

 

[Lost_Sheep]

You can pray for me all you want but it will do no good. God has my number. He has singled me out and He has it in for me.

When someone can prove, and I mean actually PROVE to my satisfaction that God cares about me then maybe I’ll take another look at it. But until that day I have no choice but to believe what I believe based on the evidence I have.

I guess technically, you cannot reject God’s love if it was never offered in the first place.

I think it’s simple. If God did not love you, you would now be in indescribable suffering, you would be “in hell on earth”, before going to Hell in the afterlife. There are people who suffer 100 times more than you, but they trust in God, and know that if God is silent it is because it is not yet the right time to break the silence, they know that God knows what He does, and that at the right time He will break the silence, and give true happiness first on this earth, and then eternally in Heaven.
Bliss is a process that takes time, you have to be patient and trust God.
And also God want that our bliss to be a reward (I know the contemporary Christian does not accept that, but it’s the truth), and to trust God in times of adversity and despite his silence, is a just motive to deserve bliss (you can read Job’s story about it)

 

[Tis_Bearself]

Who would do such a thing though? I can’t envision why someone who has come to know God could reject his mercy?

Judas did it.
Other people can do it too.
Often it’s their own ego gettting in the way. Many people have difficulty accepting that God is greater than man, and that God can never be fully understood by human logic on earth.

Step one is stop with the self-pity and “woe is me” grandstanding.

 

[Peebo]

Here is the answer from Father Spitzer…

 

[BoomBoomMancini]

God doesn’t love me and this is an irrefutable fact. Prove me wrong.

You aren’t open to hearing it. You’re too wrapped up in your identity as a victim. Anything anyone says you’re just going to sit there with your arms folded going “no, no…everythings awful.”

Frankly, I’m not surprised your life isn’t going the way you want if this is the energy you put out. You’re like a black cloud of self pity. I wouldn’t want to hire you, or date you, or hang out with you on a Friday night in your current state.

Have you considered that you might be clinically depressed? Maybe some mental health treatment is in order?

 

[Mboo]

Judas did it.
Other people can do it too.

First, it would be necessary to be certain that Judas indeed received the mercy of God and rejected it. Some people take so much bad habit that at the time of greats temptations (such as the temptation of suicide), the voice of God becomes almost impossible for them to hear

 

[Lost_Sheep]

Have you considered that you might be clinically depressed? Maybe some mental health treatment is in order?

Yes, I am. I was first diagnosed with Depression in 1994, but hindsight tells me I showed the symptoms way back in childhood. I take a whole cocktail of antidepressant medications just to get through the day and see both a psychiatrist and a psychologist on a regular basis. And every day it is a difficult effort just to cope with life.

This part of my frustration. I do believe that one wave of His mighty hand, God could make it all better. Miracles attributed to God have been known to instantly remiss cancer. Why can’t (or won’t) God cure my depression?

The answer is He doesn’t care about my suffering.

And, yet, He allowed His own Son to suffer the most indescribable agony when His Son petitioned that His Almighty Father take it all away in one instance.

Ask God for an increase in faith and hope through your suffering and trust in God’s providence that He will always bring out the eternal best for those who love Him.

I’ve tried that. It doesn’t work. Prayer and a dollar will get you a cup of coffee at 7-Eleven. That’s all it’s good for. At least in my experience.

Were you in a state of grace?

 

[Tis_Bearself]

LS, since you sound like you’ve totally given up on prayer, faith, God etc, I must ask, why are you even posting here?
I’m genuinely curious.
Because it seems like you really want God and are looking for Him.
