I am struggling. And I am terrified. I can't stop getting blasphemous thought against the holy spirit. And knowing its the only unpardonable sin in existance.... I feel trapped. I keep repeating to him that ''You aren't evil... You're not evil....'' Then a thought will come and say, ''But, YES YOU ARE!'' And I just get so frustrated that I get angry and feel like I'm meant to go straight to hell. The anger resulted in me speaking against the holy spirit. But it wasn't a instrusive thought... it was from my anger! I keep saying that I wouldn't be doing this if I had it dwelling in my heart. I keep saying that I am too evil thats why I keep blaspheming. I say please change my heart. I am trapped in pride, envy, lust, and sooo many sins imaginable. I thought I used to have it because I kept hearing a little voices leading me to Jesus Cherist. But the love I felt turned to hate. If its said to be unforgivable.... then is this because the holy spirit won't defend itself? I feel hopeless...

And for some reason I started to believe that it was from Satan.... I tried to fight the temptation to do so... but then I tried to find reasons to deny him. And finally I had a dream that Jesus said he never knew me. I don't know if it was Satan tricking me or if I am truly doomed! I want honest and serious, non atheist answers please. So scared.

Satan is messing with you. Pray and stop worrying so much man!
The only unpardonable sin is unrepentant blasphemy against the holy spirit. You ARE repenting.
Pray to God to keep Satan out of your head and pray before sleep for him not to influence your dreams. He has done this to me also. Stop worrying-God loves YOU!

What is the holy spirit?
A comparison of Bible texts that refer to the holy spirit shows that it is spoken of as ‘filling’ people; they can be ‘baptized’ with it; and they can be “anointed” with it. (Luke 1:41; Matt. 3:11; Acts 10:38) None of these expressions would be appropriate if the holy spirit were a person.
Jesus also referred to the holy spirit as a “helper” (Greek, pa·ra′kle·tos), and he said that this helper would “teach,” “bear witness,” “speak,” and ‘hear.’ (John 14:16, 17, 26; 15:26; 16:13) It is not unusual in the Scriptures for something to be personified. For example, wisdom is said to have “children.” (Luke 7:35) Sin and death are spoken of as being kings. (Rom. 5:14, 21) While some texts say that the spirit “spoke,” other passages make clear that this was done through angels or humans. (Acts 4:24, 25; 28:25; Matt. 10:19, 20; compare Acts 20:23 with 21:10, 11.) At 1 John 5:6-8, not only the spirit but also “the water and the blood” are said to ‘bear witness.’ So, none of the expressions found in these texts in themselves prove that the holy spirit is a person.
The correct identification of the holy spirit must fit all the scriptures that refer to that spirit. With this viewpoint, it is logical to conclude that the holy spirit is the active force of God. It is not a person but is a powerful force that God causes to emanate from himself to accomplish his holy will.—Ps. 104:30; 2Â Pet. 1:21; Acts 4:31.

Blasphemous thought against the Holy Spirit is not the unpardonable sin. You can say or think what you like about, or to God and Christ, but if you are confronted by a clear action of the Holy Spirit (as the Pharisees were when Jesus cast out a demon) and you then say that it was the work of evil/Satan - that is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.
It's possible that evil powers are creating your situation and you need deliverance.

You are wrestling with a deception. Just start trusting God and not trusting the deception. That deception you are worshiping is belittling the indwelling of Spirit.
The truth will set you free.
Here's your confusion:
2John1:7
7Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.
You just need to acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh.
That verse is talking about indwelling of the Holy Spirit in YOUR flesh.
"Jesus Christ" is Father/Son/ and Spirit, this is what you need to accept into your life up close and personal. Stop separating yourself from the truth. He is your guide and comforter. Surrender your heart to God.

Well I'm not really sure the exact answer to this question but I'll do my best. When I have felt similar I go some place quiet where I won't be disturbed by yourself. Maby you are just running from yourself. Just start as if you are talking to a friend, tell God whats going on and what you are feeling. Tell him you need him, that you can't do it on your own, that you want him in your life, that you want to be his servent, etc. and when you've said all you need to LISTEN! Just listen for a bit and see what he says. Ask him to send his spirit upon you. But all I can truly say that I know is good is that if living your life as a christian makes on persons life easier for just one moment your life had meaning. By the way the video on the link helped me feel better and get close to God when I've lost my way and maby it will help you.

Everyone who is doing God' Will, should have God's Holy Spirit, do you know what God's Will is? Prayers are not even answered, unless you are doing God's Will.
Explaining the nature of God, the Bible clearly states: “God is a Spirit.” (John 4:24) A spirit has a form of life that differs greatly from ours, and it is invisible to human eyes. (John 1:18) There are invisible spirit creatures as well. They are angels “the sons of the true God
The word “spirit” is also used in the Bible in another sense. Addressing God in prayer, the psalmist said: “If you send forth your spirit, they are created.” (Psalm 104:30) This spirit is not God himself but a force that God sends forth, or uses, to accomplish whatever he wishes. By means of it, God created the physical heavens, the earth, and all living things. His spirit is called holy spirit. God used his holy spirit to inspire the men who wrote the Bible. (2 Peter 1:20, 21) Hence, the holy spirit is the invisible active force that God uses to fulfill his purposes.
Holy spirit pours forth from Jehovah in limitless supply. It is God’s power in action. In fact, at Genesis 1:2, the Bible refers to it as God’s “active force.” The original Hebrew and Greek words that are rendered “spirit” may, in other contexts, be translated “wind,” “breath,” and “blast.” According to lexicographers, the original-language words suggest an invisible force in action. Like wind, God’s spirit is invisible to our eyes, but its effects are real and discernible.
A comparison of Bible texts that refer to the holy spirit shows that it is spoken of as ‘filling’ people; they can be ‘baptized’ with it; and they can be “anointed” with it. None of these expressions would be appropriate if the holy spirit were a person.
Jesus also referred to the holy spirit as a “helper, and he said that this helper would “teach,” “bear witness,” “speak,” and ‘hear.’ (John 14:16, 17, 26; 15:26; 16:13) It is not unusual in the Scriptures for something to be personified.

Dear heart, please go and search for a Holy Spirit filled church and go to the altar of mercy and repent and ask the elders to lay hands on you and pray for you, Jesus came to set the captives free and you are in bondage to a lying spirit. you are in desperate need of healing, sound teaching and understanding. and fellowship with the body.
Ask our Father to lead you to a place of true worship, where you will know the truth and where the truth will set you free to know the depth and height of His amazing Love and Grace.
My prayers are for you.
Shalom

Pray for God to help you.
You might talk to your parents or an adult you trust about the little voice and the problems you're having. Then do as whatever they suggest.

do not despair, for your reaction is exactly what the devil wants.
keep strong, and have faith that God will pull you through. do not give up, keep/start praying. Pray for peace and calmness.
what are you angry about? once you receive the holy spirit, it will never leave you.

The holy spirit is something you drink. It can even make you speak in tongues.
No what you are thinking of is the results of years of brainwashing, get some help and try to get over it :)
