Grieving the Holy Spirit.

2006-12-08 04:12:55 · answer #1 · answered by Fish <>< 7 · 0 0

the worse sins
1. "A PROUD LOOK."
This comes through the eye gate. This is a mental attitude sin of pride. Pride plus lust equals
jealousy. This is thinking pride, wicked imaginations.
2. "A LYING TONGUE." Lying here is a habitual liar. A sin of the tongue.
3. "HANDS THAT SHED INNOCENT BLOOD."
This is murder, killing is prohibited.
A. Exodus 20:13, "Thou shalt not kill," literally in the Hebrew it is, "Thou shalt not
murder."
4. "A HEART THAT DEVISETH WICKED IMAGINATIONS."
This is the mind controlled by the emotions and this is a mental attitude sin. This
is a mind filled with jealousy. Jealousy which breeds suspicion and suspicion thinks the
worst. The worst in the mind is the imagination.
5. "FEET THAT BE SWIFT IN RUNNING TO MISCHIEF."
This is a sin of the tongue and overt sin. This is a person going around making trouble.
Most trouble is caused by the use of the tongue, which involves gossip, resulting in overt sin,
making trouble for others.
6. "A FALSE WITNESS THAT SPEAKER LIES."
This is another sin of the tongue: Perjury, downgrading someone. This is playing spiritual
king of the mountain.
7. "HE THAT SWATH DISCORD AMONG THE BRETHREN."
Sin of the tongue, maligning.

Biblically, there is no worst sin, any sin (a little lie, cursing God, or killing someone) will be your ticket to hell

But if you are thinking of what the worst sin is according to society, take these:

Caniballism, Child Molestation, Terrorism, Incest, and Suicide.

Frankly, I don't think murder is taken so sinfully serious by society, unless you kill a kid or a nice person. If you kill Osama or a rapist, you will get gifts in jail (I suppose, but you won't be treated as badly as you should, even by prison mates).

God doesn't play the "worst sin" game. That is the invention of those who want to consider themselves better than others....as in " At least I don't do that!"

God says sin is "missing the mark" (the biblical word is "hamartia" and that's what it means). THE MARK? = Perfection.

Any sin we do makes us less than perfect. And being less than perfect, we are equal to any other person as being imperfect like them. We can't boast over others as being "less sinful".

James 2:10-11
10 For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it. 11 For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," also said, "Do not murder." If you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a lawbreaker.
(from New International Version)

All are in the same boat. And the boat is sinking. All are going to die ....unless they have a savior.

You may ask, "Why is it that sex always seems to be singled out in God's judgment? Why is sexual immorality the first sign of a disintegrating civilization?"

There is a good reason. Many Christians have wrongly concluded that sexual sins are the worst kinds of sin. But that is not true. Sexual sins are not the worst kind. C. S. Lewis saw this clearly, and in Mere Christianity he says,

If anyone thinks that Christians regard unchastity as the supreme vice, he is quite wrong. The sins of the flesh are bad, but they are the least bad of all sins. All the worst pleasures are purely spiritual: the pleasure of pulling other people in the wrong, of bossing and patronizing and spoiling sport, and backbiting; the pleasures of power, of hatred. For there are two things inside me, competing with the human self which I must try to become. They are the Animal self, and the Diabolical self. The Diabolical self is the worse of the two. That is why a cold, self-righteous prig who goes regularly to church may be far nearer to hell than a prostitute. But, of course, it's better to be neither. (from "Sexual Morality" in Book III, Christian Behavior)

This passage in Romans confirms Lewis' words. Wickedness begins with sexual impurity and then proceeds to sexual perversion. But the final outcome, in the climax of the chapter, is not sexual sin but the sins of the spirit. Widespread animosity and heartlessness--these are the worst sins.

But God allows perverted sexual practices to become publicly acceptable to show us what is going on in our spiritual lives. It may sound curious, but sex is linked with worship. A serious reading of the Scriptures will make this clear. Sex is mans longing after worship. It is a desire to possess another body and to be possessed by another. It is a deep-seated craving inherent in every human being. We have all heard the statement, "Women give sex in order to get love; men give love in order to get sex." Superficially this is true. But what both are really after is not sex at all; they are after worship. They really want to worship and to be worshiped. They want a sense of total fulfillment, a oneness, an identity. And this is what they think they are getting when they indulge in illicit sex.

Yes, blasphemy against the holy spirit is the only unpardonable sin. but let me clear that up for you:

To make it be the unpardonable sin you would have to not only blasphemy against the holy spirit but live your life in such a way that is against the holy spirit. If you are thinking, "Oh no, I think I just blasphemied against the holy spirit" then you're probably still alright, because its the way you li ve it out.

Why? Because Jesus is forgiveness. If you reject forgiveness then where else can you turn?

So its a lifestyle against the holy spirit.

Rejecting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior is the worst sin. There's a high price to pay for that, too. And that's the truth.

The only unforgivable sin is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.

If there is no sin than I could to what ever I want like rape, murder I could go into the atheists house and take what ever I what. this is the world animals live in.

The unforgiveable one - the rejection of Christ

All sin is paid for we merely have to accept the payment.

Look at this simplistic way - God has given a ticket into the local amusement park (heaven) all paid for. All we have to do is use it.

However if we dont we have to pay the way in ourselves - and we are too poor and broke to do it.

According to Christianity and the Bible there is only one truly unredeemable sin and its blaspheming the holy spirit or spirit of God. Kind of shows what is really important to God in that belief system, himself!
