Unforgivable Sin

[D.B. Cooper]

What is it? And more importantly, how do I know I haven't done it?

Blaspheming the Holy Spirit.

The question about knowing if you have done it or not, requires knowledge I personally think is beyond me. Already asking may be a good sign. I ask myself regularly too, so personally I cannot be of use.

Generally, though, you will feel immediately if you have done something very wrong. That helps.

[Arch-hereticK]

That was very interesting.
But didn't stPaul do just that when he disturbed congregations. Does that mean he was an exception or is he in hell?

[Ummon]

I am (obviously) not the Lord, so I cannot answer.

[Arch-hereticK]

Ok, do you think he deserved to go to hell?

[Ummon]

I cannot judge the actions of others, as well.

[Arch-hereticK]

I just want your opinion.

[Ummon]

I also want a golden palace surrounded by exotic gardens with fountains. This doesn't mean I will get one, nor that it is right that I get one.

Are you saying that I don't deserve your opinion?

[Ummon]

I am saying that I am not entitled to give it. Therefore, you are not entitled to receive it.

“Do Not Judge Lest You Be Judged” (Matt. 7:1)

[Arch-hereticK]

Oh if it only worked that way in reality.

[Taiji]

Oh if it only worked that way in reality.

In my opinion, it typically does on a couple of levels.

It's quite difficult to judge others with a set of rules that you don't apply to yourself, and doing so probably causes internal conflict.

And also if we allow individuals to carry out their own justice then we are far more likely to be subject to injustice by our own terms.

So to me it's a maxim for personal and also societal integrity.

[Ummon]

Tangible reality is not my only concern.

[Jeff.Spectre]

i've always thought that the "unforgivable sin" is rejecting god at every turn, even in the true face of God, to reject him then, that is the unforgivable sin.
so if you are worried about committing the unforgivable sin, then you can not have committed it as that is proof of your recognition of God.

[Arch-hereticK]

Let the intangible realities judge themselves, all I want is your opinion on unforgivable sin.

[♔Jean-Luc Picard♔]

If you've done it, you'd know. It isn't really a sin against a person (barring the truly heinous) as much as it is a sin against God.

[D.B. Cooper]

Alrighty.

The Holy Spirit < Ghostbusters. Does this count?
