Christians like to pretend that Jesus is absolutely the most kind, wonderful person who ever existed. Christians teach that you can be forgiven of any sin, including internet porn, murder, child abuse, rape and even speaking out against Jesus. However, the one part of the Bible most Christians ignore is probably the most frightening part... the unforgivable sin.
That's right, there is a sin which can not be forgiven. This transgression is a keystone of Christianity and is the easiest to do. This sin is as easy to do as it is easy to not believe in the tooth fairy. Its even easier than it is to accidentally cuss when you break your toe walking through your house in the dark and kick the coffee table.
This sin is: To deny the Holy Spirit.
What does that mean? Mainstream Christianity says that to deny the Holy Spirit is to say that the Holy Spirit does not exist. The Jehovah's Witness say that it is to portray the good acts of God as wicked acts.
If you haven't heard of this particular sin, you can find the evidence in these verses:
LUKE 12:10, "And everyone that says a word against the Son of Man, that will be forgiven; But he that blasphemes against The Holy Spirit will not be forgiven
MARK 3:29, "Whoever blasphemes against The Holy Spirit will never have forgiveness, but is guilty of everlasting sin."
MATTHEW 12: 31-32 "Therefore I say to you, any sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven men, but blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven. And whoever shall speak a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him; but whoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age, or in the age to come".
Not once, not twice but thrice, you are warned against commiting this sin. If you have ever had the slightest doubt, even when you were a child, you are (according to the Bible) going straight to Hell when you die. There's no chance for you. It's over... unless the Bible is wrong.
I know from firsthand experience that this belief has led to suicide in the cult I was once connected with. It is a horrible and evil teaching.
