Did Job deny the Holy Spirit?
If so then yes... and no.

No. He did not commit the unforgivable sin. The unforgivable sin is to stand in the full light of knowledge that God is and to deny it. I doubt anyone is there yet.
Job 1:22
22 In all this Job asinned not, nor charged God foolishly

The only unforgivable sin is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit which Job did not commit.

Job did not commit the uforgivable Sin, When God chastised the three "friends" He told them take these animals to Job and let Him offer them up for you.I will accept them,the 4th man didn:t need a sacrifice.God had a lot of confidence in Job,He, God gave Satan an object lesson .

Why do you think he committed the unforgivable sin?
Job was tested. He never said a bad word against God. His wife told him to curse God and die. But he didn't.

my father holds the belief that the unforgivable sin could only be accomplished while Jesus was on the earth. Ssaid sin is attributing Jesus' power to Satan. Job was arguably the greatest of believers. He was just about killed and he still didn't fall.

Job railed against God for a long while. God went so far as to come down a couple times and yell at Job, saying that Job wasn't fit to judge God. I'm pretty sure Job never renounced the Lord tho' so he was okay.
I find it funny that Job is a model of patience. People only ever read the first and last chapter of the book of Job. He gets really angry at God and runs around talkin' smack. It's good stuff.

No. Job never commited blasphemy. He was always faithful to God. His wife wanted him to curse God and die but he refused through many many losses he stayed faithful to God. His life was riddled iwth death and loss and yet he still believed. Later in his life, his blessed many times over by God.
Job 1:21,22: At this, Job got up and tore his robe and shaved his head. Then he fell to the ground in worship 21 and said:
"Naked I came from my mother's womb,
and naked I will depart. [c]
The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away;
may the name of the LORD be praised."
22 In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing.
Since blasphemy is the only UNFORGIVABLE sin according to the Bible, no one who commits it is forgiven.
Mark 3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation.

The only unforgivable sin is blaspheming of the Holy Spirit. I don't remember him doing that.

No. He was tested by Satan in an attempt to prove man's weakness, but passed the test. God allowed these things to come upon Job at Satan's hand with the strict condition that Satan couldn't kill Job. Even in TESTING, God was in control!
