How Can I be Certain I Haven't Committed the Unforgivable Sin?

- Hank Hanegraaff, the host of the 𝘉𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘈𝘯𝘴𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘔𝘢𝘯 broadcast and the 𝘏𝘢𝘯𝘬 𝘜𝘯𝘱𝘭𝘶𝘨𝘨𝘦𝘥 podcast, says that is one of the most frequently asked questions on the Bible Answer Man broadcast, and it stems from the following words spoken by Christ: “I say to you, any sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven people, but blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven. Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come” (Matthew 12: 31-32 NASB). As a result of these words, Christians are often paralyzed by fear. The first point is from a historic perspective-the Pharisees mentioned by Matthew militantly hated Christ and attributed His miracles to Beelzebub, the prince of demons. Unlike people who are afraid they have committed the unforgivable sin, the Pharisees were totally unconcerned about receiving Christ’s forgiveness. Instead, with premeditation and persistence, they willfully blasphemed the Holy Spirit’s testimony that Christ was the Son of the living God. It is crucial to recognize that the unforgivable sin is not a single act but a continuous, ongoing rejection of Jesus and those who have committed the unpardonable sin have no godly regrets.

Sin is deceptive and destructive. God gave me many signs and warnings and I’m listening and repenting from my sins. The devil had me believing I committed the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit but God stretched his arm out with conviction, godly sorrow and signs that I haven’t. He’s very merciful and loves to forgive and restore. We can’t trust in our feelings and thoughts because most of that is rooted in sin. We need to trust Jesus and obey the gospel.
How do you know you HAVE committed the unforgivable blasphemy? And I don’t believe repentance of it would clear you of the sin before God, for whatever reason. Jesus said it very plainly, “[It] will NEVER be forgiven…”
What if not completely knowing God and wondering about His nature and character(especially after reading the Old Testament, which is terrifying to me) call God something antonymous with “good”. Starts with an ‘E’ ends with an ‘L’?- I can’t even say it. I’ve said things while venting to a couple people because I was so frustrated not understanding God thinking He just utterly hates me and solely created me to damn me to hell for all eternity without giving me a fair chance. I mean it’s like satan has been tormenting me in literally every aspect of my life. And now I’m convinced he caused me to commit the unforgivable sin. It’s weird because after it happened and I started deliverance my rage towards God went away and I’m Starting to feel a sorrow like I’ve never known before like King Saul had so is it because I’ve lost the Holy Spirit for blaspheming God or Jesus(well I never really said anything bad about Jesus but still I’ve had a lot of frustration and anger towards them for feeling abandoned rejected and hated by them both). I just want the torment of not knowing to stop I beg Jesus to at least let me know if I committed it
@@nodramamomma8691 Because God spoke personally through experience, circumstance , and conviction in my heart that I haven’t committed the sin. It’s basically choosing rebellion, condemnation, and hell knowingly while being fully convicted of the truth. And you would know that you chose everlasting punishment. It’s turning the truth of Jesus into a lie, and the lie of Satan into truth, you have to be the most crazy foolish person to do that and it’s only a heart that is fully hardened by sin that chooses this. It’s not easy to commit this sin, it takes absolute rebellion and allegiance to Satan to commit this sin.
@@greganderson2239 I’m so glad you didn’t because I hate hate hate thinking about ANYONE being condemned to hell for one thing like this that is sooooo heartbreaking to me. And is it *intentional* allegiance to satan? Can you give me an example of this turning truth into lies and lies into truth like satan does?
@@nodramamomma8691 Well, look at what Judas did when he betrayed Jesus. He killed Jesus by choosing the money and he knew what he was doing. I believe everyone makes this choice in their heart, people choose the lie disguised as true and good “good and evil” or they choose Gods grace and peace through his sacrifice. You either serve money or God, can’t serve both and Satan rules with money.
Thank You so Much Preacher and may God Jesus Christ Bless You🙏🙏🙏.
I love Jesus christ amen 🙏
I am scared to speak i don't want to commit it
Don't be scared, God knows your heart that's all that matters.
@@Edward-1990 i love yaweh and Yeshua
@@Edward-1990 Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior
Amen my heart has moments where it softens and where it hardens I don't know if there is any hope for me
@@Conservativestheway there's always hope
I 100% committed this I got baptized and started following Jesus but fell into a year and half of sin
I believe I’m rebrobate and have a hard heart
@trippi3_knightzz657 How is that?
keep repenting and seeking God.
how are you now?
Hey brother can i please ask you something? I was worried beacouse i thought i might have blasphemed and i just wanted assurance. So i discussed with my friend what blasphemy is (Attributing the spirits work with the devil) and i made an example of what would need to be said and if i done it. Is it the same i commit the sin? I literally said the words but i didnt mean it. Please help me❤🙏
Does this video help? What is the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit mentioned in Matthew 12:31?" th-cam.com/video/vQ4yoYZl5SE/w-d-xo.html
Please 🙏 for me, I don’t feel conviction and I don’t feel sincere. It felt like I rejected forgiveness in my heart one day. I feel unconsciously blind spiritually. I feel like I’m despised Jesus and I don’t know what to do. I know I have to seek the Lord.
You must be feeling some conviction about some wrongdoing. You post appears to be an honest plea; hence, there is sincerity. Doubtful the unpardonable sin fits your situation. See www.equip.org/articles/what-is-the-unpardonable-sin-2a/ www.equip.org/bible_answers/how-can-i-be-certain-i-havent-committed-the-unforgivable-sin/
But what you are struggling with is best handled within the context of a healthy well-balanced church with those faithful believers in the body of Christ, such as a pastor, who can care over your soul in prayer, instruction, encouragement, and if necessary, correction.
@@BibleAnswerManI suffer from religious OCD. I go to therapy for it. I was telling my therapist about one of my intrusive thoughts. I said one of them out loud. I said it out loud to say that it is a lie and that I don’t believe in it. I said “my mind was telling me blankly blank blank was actually happening, but it wasn’t. My mind was tricking me into believing I believed this but I don’t because I believe it was through the Holy Spirit that Jesus performed the miracles and I’ll gladly tell anyone that.” I am so scared I committed blasphemy of the Holy Spirit when I said my mind was telling me (blank) was actually happening but it wasn’t. Please help!
I MEED HELP PLS. I Was talking to my grandpall then I said delve bit talking about somthing then I thought of the Holy Spirit but I was not thinking of it only poped into my head I feel frustrated full of anxiety what do I do! PLS😢
@CASTANEDAAAAA Not certain what you mean? How does thinking a bad thought constitute blasphemy against the HS? Explain.
@@BibleAnswerManSo yesterday I was whaching TV and then I said The word devle because ther was devils in the tv then sudently the word Holy Spirit came up in my mind then not my mouth tho I started crying because when I said the word devle the word Holy Spirit got into my mind. I get a lot of bad thoughts of the holy spirt I don’t whant to but if happens. pls I need help I belife in god and jesus since I heard of this sins I get bad thoughts 💭 help PLS man I don’t know what to do I feel so frustrated and full of anxiety 😥 helppppp!
Jesus Christ is my personal Lord and savior Risen son of God lamb of God king of kings Lord of lord's Emmanuel my Way of life 😊
This is horrifying
@calvinduke4810 What is the horrifying thing would you say?
Jesus is the Lord and Savior of my Life
He is the way the truth and the life
The first and the last
The beginning and the end
He is the Alpha and the Omega
Jesus is the Son of God
May Jehova wash and cleanse me with the blood of his living son
so this sin cannot be commited in mind? Like if you cussed the Holy Spirit in your mind but not in your mouth?
No. It cannot be in mind. Thoughts are just thoughts. We are not our thoughts. And even if you say something, if you feel bad about saying it means you haven't committed it.
@@Edward-1990 thank you for this. There are times I feel like did I say think it or something else. I still have thought saying oh you want to think about it to you? See my above remark. This is tough.
I do not know, but I am Latter day, saint.But if somebody feels some sort of regret are remorse, that would mean that the spirit is still working within them.If you are worried that you have committed this sin then you probably have not
@TheBrettMizer Thanks for sharing.
I’m scared. Am Christian and always have been. However the past few months I got a lot closer to God. But one day I was praying for the Holy Spirt to guide me through out my day. But instead of saying “Holy Spirt” I said “Holy Ghost. Now recently I just realized they mean the same thing but then I though “Oh sorry God, I mean Holy Spirt” however I question if that thought of “Holy Ghost” came from the enemy. I’m a kid so I’m not very well sure and we’ll educated about that. So I didnt understand what “Holy Ghost” meant at the time.I do follow Jesus. I gave my life to him a few months ago. I’ve always been Christian but I’ve gotten a lot closer with God and Jesus. Yea I was basically praying for the Holy Spirt to guide be that day. I instead said “Holy Ghost” now i realize that’s fine but after I say “God idk why I said that” and i though in my head “what if the enemy is trying to trick me or something. I love God,Jesus, and the Holy Spirt. Do you think I’m still saved??? I’m scared please reach back out to me.
I Don't Want To Reject The Gospel
Have you been born again?
SOMEONE PLS HELP AND TELL ME IF THIS IS A SIN
OK so basically I was really sad and I was kinds mad at God and I was crying. And than I thought of the unforgivable sin and than the thought maybe I do beileve that it's the devil just immerged in my mind. I immediately denied it afterwards though and said NO I DONT BEILEVE IN IT. Idk if it was my mind doing that or me thinking those things bit it happened 3 times and I denied it all three times. SOMEONE PLS TELL ME IF THIS IS BLASPHEMY
@Ilovejesuschrist378 Do not think so. See www.equip.org/articles/what-is-the-unpardonable-sin-2a/ www.equip.org/bible_answers/how-can-i-be-certain-i-havent-committed-the-unforgivable-sin/
Perhaps I misunderstood but did Hank just say that Peter became the cornerstone of the Christian church? Ephesians 2:20 says otherwise.
I had to listen again and at 2:55, it was Peter's confession that Christ is the Son of God became the cornerstone of the Christian church.
I Don't Want To Reject God..
I DONOT. NEITHER I WANT GOD. I DONOT WANT TO GO TO HELL .
I DONOT. WANT TO SPEAK AGAINST HOLYGHOST .
Hi I am curious do you still believe in unending punishment for unbelievers, I have recently come to believe that annihilation has to be trues.
To me even when you say unending punishment in hell is true, I have something for consideration, that in scripture it says only them that have the son have eternal life.
To be punished endlessly means you would have to exist but how can you exist which is a form of life, when you don't have JESUS.
Also the greek definition for eternity and words like forever describe an indefinite amount of time. Just wanted to see what you think.
@barbaramartin9838 > Hank still holds to hell as eternal conscious punishment. Check out the HUP interview w/ Lawrence Farley > th-cam.com/video/Ch_Ca5TIniQ/w-d-xo.html
He who is not with me is against me jesus said. Underline every place it says against n see. Also he warned them after they spoke words of opposition against his ministry, which was to lead folks to salvation..
@Charles-tv6oi Thanks for sharing.
Here's how: It's nonsense. It's for control of the sheep.
If u r "living in fear of committing the unforgivable sin," then u r living under the yoke of Satan.
Fear is of Satan
Love and Peace r of God
@horsewithnoname5264 Perspective appreciated.
