IS it true that if you deny christ once at a stupid young age you'll go to hell no matter what?

Question

I've heard that the bible states "blasphemy is the mortal sin, never to be forgiven"

I'm a Christian now and I'm worried that I'm doomed to an eternity in hell now, even though I'm a good person and follow the book the best I could.

I said a curse word to god to look cool in front of my atheist friends as a dumb teenager. That is the definition of blasphemy and is unforgivable?

Answer 1

You need to read the Bible yourself and find out what it says. Don't rely on the opinion of men, although you should be willing to listen to those who seek to know and follow the truth; but if you have received the Holy Spirit He will lead you into all the Truth; but He will use the Word of God to do it.

Consider this one promise:

"I (Jesus) tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him (the Father) who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life."

John 5:24

So do you believe Him? or no?
If you believe, tell, confess it to someone else.
Jesus said if you confess Him before men, He will confess you before the Father and the holy angels. If you are weak in your faith, it is quite likely because you are not confessing your faith.
Find out what the Word of God says, and confess (say) it.

Answer 2

No, no, no, no. If you have believed that Jesus Christ is the God/Man you are saved and sealed forever. Do not worry!
The sin of blasphemy the Holy Spirit is not forgiven in this age
or any age to come. Because the Holy Spirit is the one who
reveals Christ to us. If we would blasphemy Him then we wouldn't be able to know Christ. All sin is paid for by Christ
for every human being. John 19:30, He finished the work.
But not all will believe, that is where free will comes in. So,
if you have believe in Christ as God, you are saved forever
and can't ever be unsaved.

Answer 3

You are confused.

Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is the only unforgivable sin.
That is what Satan has done, and he can not be forgiven for.
To know the full Truth and Glory of God, yet still rebel.

Christ will only die one time for us. To refuse this gift after we are given the gift of eternal life, lets just say that He won't die for us a 2nd time.

Rejecting Christ at a young age will not affect your ability to repent and accept him as an accountable adult. Blasphemy is no greater sin than any other.

God Bless You.

Answer 4

The only way to go to heaven and not eternal hell is by believing that Jesus, who is God, died for our sins on the cross and rose again (1 Corinthians 15:1-4).

Believe and you are saved, and it is impossible to lose salvation (1 John 5:13). What you have done in the past is forgiven and forgotten by God forever, no matter what it is.

Answer 5

Anything in the past is forgiven when you give your life to him... if you feel him in your heart now then NOTHING can take his life in you away,ever.
Have you asked him to forgive that? If not. do so and you know your sins are washed away.
Romans 8:1-3
Romans 8:28-39

The blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is the unforgivable sin. That means a person rejects God in all ways... obviously that is not your case. Jesus came, died, and resurrected so that we can be forgiven of sin and have abundant life now, and the promise of eternal life with him. It also means when we ask for forgiveness, we have it with full assurance. He came to save sinners...like you and me.

Answer 6

You will be forgiven if you truly repent. In the bible Jesus knew he would be denied 3 times. You are not saved forever if you dont maintain your salvation. Cherish it and always be careful. God is so merciful, dont let the devil lie to you anymore.

Answer 8

God's Infinite Mercy

[39:53] Proclaim: "O My servants who exceeded the limits, never despair of GOD's mercy. For GOD forgives all sins. He is the Forgiver, Most Merciful."

[39:54] You shall obey your Lord, and submit to Him totally, before the retribution overtakes you; then you cannot be helped.

[39:55] And follow the best path that is pointed out for you by your Lord, before the retribution overtakes you suddenly when you least expect it.

Idol Worship Nullifies All Work

[39:65] It has been revealed to you, and to those before you that if you ever commit idol worship, all your works will be nullified, and you will be with the losers.

[39:66] Therefore, you shall worship GOD alone, and be appreciative.

Answer 9

Where does guilt like this come from...from Jesus or your enemy?

Following the book as best you can will not save you.

Believing Jesus will save you. Do not believe the false testimony of men...they are deceivers for their own purposes....me and you included.

Do you have the testimony of God in your heart? Read and pray over the following Scripture from 1 John 5.

"If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God which He has testified of His Son. He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son. And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God."

Nothing can separate you from the love of God if you have the Son.

Answer 10

No.
Blasphemy of the Spirit is not what most people think it is, and in your case, I would suggest you examine it more carefully as to what this blashpemy actually is.

I would suggest you start with the fact, ESAU found no place of repentance. What MAJOR sin did he commit?
