Today we want to talk about a topic that is very important for many people, and at the same time extremely controversial. We are talking about the unforgivable sin
- one of the most difficult and puzzling concepts in Christianity. It is possible that some of you have heard of the unpardonable sin, but not fully understanding
what it means and what its consequences are.
To others, this concept may seem completely absurd or even frightening. Regardless of how you feel about the concept, we encourage you to watch this video to
better understand what it's all about. The unforgivable sin is a concept that can raise many emotions, controversies and questions. Is it really possible that
God is unable to forgive sin?
What sins are considered unforgivable? Are there ways to repent and be forgiven for the unpardonable sin? These are just some of the questions we will try to
answer in this video. This is not an easy topic, but we are convinced that it is worth talking about.
We believe that our discussion will be interesting and informative, and maybe even help you understand some difficult issues related to faith. The problem
with the unforgivable sin is that many people don't quite understand what it really means. Often people are afraid that they have committed such a sin,
but in reality they have no idea what it is.
Let's go to the heart of the matter and read a passage from the Gospel according to Saint Matthew, chapter 12, verses 22 to 33.
Then a demoniac was brought to him, who was blind and mute. He healed him so that the mute could speak and see. And all the crowds marveled and said,
"Is this not the son of David?" But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, "He casts out demons only through Beelzebub, the ruler of demons."
Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said to them: "Every kingdom that is divided against itself is laid waste. And no city or house quarreling inwardly will stand.
If Satan casts out Satan, he is at odds with himself, so how will his kingdom stand? And if I cast out demons through Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out?
Therefore they will be your judges. But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
Or how can a man enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And only then will he rob his house.
Whoever is not with Me is against Me; and he who does not gather with me scatters. Therefore I say to you: Every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people
, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.
If anyone speaks a word against the Son of Man, he will be forgiven, but if he speaks against the Holy Spirit, he will not be forgiven either in this
age or in the age to come. Either consider the tree good and its fruit good, or consider the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit.
Notice who Jesus is addressing when he talks about the unpardonable sin. He is not speaking to people who believe in his teaching, but to a group of
Pharisees. So how did they commit this sin? They committed this sin by attributing the work of Jesus to the devil, but not only did they completely
reject Jesus Christ as the Son of God and Savior.
Notice that the Pharisees never once said anything about the Holy Spirit. What they did, they attributed the work that Jesus Christ did to the devil,
while Christ did it by the power of the Holy Spirit. In other words, these people, seeing the work that Christ did, looked at Him and said; this is
the work of the demon and him alone, thereby rejecting the power of the Holy Spirit working through Jesus Christ. In other words, they rejected that
Jesus Christ is the Son of the one God, and therefore they rejected Salvation.
Now let us ask ourselves, can a Christian commit this sin? The answer is no. As Christians, we believe in God, the creator of the universe and man.
We believe that God created man in his image and gave him free will to choose between good and evil. We believe that God sent his Son, Jesus Christ,
to save humanity through his passion, death and resurrection.
We believe that through faith in Jesus and his sacrifice, we receive the grace of salvation and eternal life. We also believe in the Holy Spirit,
who guides us to the truth, gives us the strength to overcome our sins, and strengthens our faith. We believe in the Gospel, which is the Word of God.
Therefore, as Christians, we cannot commit this sin.
Those who commit this sin never repent of their actions, they will never agree to accept Jesus Christ as the Son of God, as Savior. They act with
full knowledge of their actions, completely rejecting God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. They remain in this hardness of heart, completely closing
the voice of conscience, until death, and in this state they leave this world. Many people fear that they have committed this sin.
However, it is worth remembering that it is not about random thoughts or one-time actions, but about a state of mind that completely rejects the
Holy Spirit, rejects Jesus Christ and all that He has revealed to us. People who turn to Jesus Christ in faith cannot commit this sin because they accept Jesus
as Savior and Son of God.
Committing the unpardonable sin is rejecting God fully consciously and fully voluntarily, putting the will of man above the will of God. Committing
the sin against the Holy Spirit is difficult because it requires a deliberate and conscious rejection of the Holy Spirit and His work. This is usually
an extreme and long-term condition that requires a total rejection of the Holy Spirit and His gifts.
Contemplating this topic further, we can recall the words of Jesus Christ that he gave to Saint Faustina. "There are souls who despise My graces and
all proofs of My love; they do not want to hear My call, but they go to the abyss of hell. This loss of souls plunges Me into mortal sorrow. I cannot
help a soul here, although I am God, because it despises Me. ; having free will, he can either despise Me or love Me."
These words help us understand more and more the essence of the sin against the Holy Spirit. Man consciously despises God's infinite mercy, man
rejects this mercy! It must be strongly emphasized that a person who is in a state of sin against the Holy Spirit remains in it until he turns his
heart to God and changes his attitude.
As we read in the Catechism of the Catholic Church: The souls of those who die in a state of mortal sin immediately after death go to hell,
where they suffer torment, "eternal fire." The moment a soul begins to strive for conversion, a chance opens before it to receive forgiveness
through the sacrament of penance, provided that the five requirements of a good confession are met. The erroneous belief that a person in a
state of sin against the Holy Spirit is already doomed to damnation and loss of salvation must be ruled out.
A person in sin against the Holy Spirit rejects the necessary grace needed for conversion. That is why Jesus taught that this kind of sin will
never be forgiven. Like the fallen angels who disregarded the grace of God. It is worth noting that the sin against the Holy Spirit is not a
mere mistake or misconduct.
It is a sin that consists in a total rejection of God's mercy and grace, as well as in attributing the work of the Holy Spirit to evil or the
devil. It is the sin of the ultimate rejection of God and therefore leads to eternal damnation. The meaning of the sin against the Holy Spirit
is the complete rejection of God and His grace and remaining in this state until death, but a person can be converted and completely change his
life, his attitude and find faith.
The Catholic Church teaches that every person can be forgiven for his sins, including the sin against the Holy Spirit. The condition, however,
is complete conversion and repentance. A person who acknowledges his sins and turns to God has the possibility of being forgiven through the sacrament of penance
.
If we acknowledge our sin, repent, and take steps to repent, God is always ready to pardon us. Let us remember that the sin against the Holy Spirit
is a total and conscious rejection of God, rejection of His love, rejection of the Holy Spirit, rejection of Jesus Christ as the Son of God and Savior
. It is a sin that leads to the loss of sanctifying grace and therefore leads to eternal damnation.
It is important that we remember that God is merciful and wants to save us. His mercy is infinite and He does not want us to be separated from Him
forever. Therefore, it is worth believing in His mercy and striving for reconciliation with Him, no matter what sins we have committed in the past.
It is extremely important that we do not remain in fear and uncertainty, but continue our faith, trust in the work of the Holy Spirit and strive for salvation.
It is also important that we are aware of our actions and intentions, so that we do not reject God's action and continue to seek salvation.
Let us not forget that God is merciful and gracious, and His mercy knows no bounds. We all commit sins, but it is essential that we always seek the way
to reconcile with God and to salvation.
It's never too late to seek forgiveness. Even when it seems impossible, God is always ready to pardon us and welcome us with open arms.
Conversion, acknowledgment of sin, repentance, prayer and the sacrament of confession are essential in the process of
