Severe OCD blasphemy

[Argem17]

Hi all, I really need your help I suffer of severe OCD to the point that all I think is blasphemy, and everything time I try for example enjoy like having a conversation with someone I feel like I say something/mumbling blasphemous or my mouth open but only to make me feel sad and with shame, Sometimes I think I’ve said the blasphemy to self sabotage me on purpose, however this is not in my heart this is causing me a lot of stress, anxiety and depression. And the ocd threatening me like if you commit blasphemy you will become a homeless, you won’t be able to have a wife or have sex and everybody is going to dislike you because you won’t have any value and you don’t have any worth , or you won’t be able to even speak because you blasphemed. However I spoke with a Pastor in my church and he told me there’s no unforgivable sin but the Bible says this sin will not be forgiven and I received a promised from God through a Pastor when I was around 17 years old before all this happened and the Pastor has a good testimony and is a man of God. Has anyone experience anything like this??

Do you guys think the same that I won’t be able to have enjoy life or have wife or anything like just because of the blasphemy? I honestly don’t think sonand I think it’s the OCD ruining my life. I’ve spent 2 years of my life like that and only 28 years old , I am getting grey hair and losing weight. Because I feel I said the blasphemy on purpose but just to self sabotage myself. I also have severe low self steem because of that .

Please Brother, do not worry about such things, The lord knows you and Know of your difficulty. Please be reassured and do not fear, Just do the best that you can and the Lord will know as he knows our hearts. You would need a change of scenery and change your focus to something more pleasing to you. Of course you can be happy and have a wife if you so desire. Nothing is stopping you but yourself. Please do not fear and trust In God.

OCD can be a challenge to conquer, I hope you have a good doctor who specialized in this field. Do not hesitate, they will guide you properly and will plan with you what to do to remedy the problems you are facing at this time.

Be Blessed.

I have dealt with blasphemous thoughts for years. I know what you are struggling with. You are not alone and I can empathize. Check out Mark DeJesus' youtube channel. He deals specifically with religious OCD , including one on the unpardonable sin. He really has helped me alot. He is very compassionate . Check him out. It will encourage you.

Do you have anyone to help you deal with your OCD? For example, a therapist, pastor, friend, etc.? Or any helpful resources?

Hey Argem. My name is Collin. I’m 27. I’m dealing with similar issues. Keep praying.

Firstly your pastor is wrong, there is at least one unforgivable sin:

Matthew 12:31-32 KJV

31 ¶ Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.

32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.

Also taking the mark of the beast. Some people conflate this with blaspheming the Holy Spirit.

Beware of false teachers:
2 Timothy 4:3 (KJV)
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

I keep having unspeakably blasphemous thoughts myself. What I think might’ve occurred, is I’ve struggled with lust my whole life almost. If we get free from sin and keep going back to it we get worse and worse: read 2 Peter 2:20 and Luke 11:24-26.

I remember literally feeling some form of bondage breaking after a prayer one time but unfortunately not long after went right back to sin.

As for your church you might want to show your pastor these Scriptures and if he’s still a heretic consider rebuking him and/or leaving (but entreating him if he’s an elder) 1 Timothy 5:1 (KJV):
Rebuke not an elder, but intreat [him] as a father; [and] the younger men as brethren;

(this is one I sometimes haven’t done but trying to be better very frustrating with all the false teachers established in church offices)

But our problem is severe. We can keep in contact if you’d like and pray for one another. May God’s love grace healing mercy and deliverance be with us.

This article about people with OCD struggling with the unpardonable sin may be helpful. Eckert also has other articles about scrupulosity topics, including the unpardonable sin in particular, on her blog, so it may be worth checking out. I'm also happy to share links to other resources about OCD. It is a difficult thing to deal with, but it is very treatable and there is hope for experiencing victory over it!

of stress, anxiety and depression.

Depression is easy to cure. Use the Blood of Jesus to chase the devil and his thoughts out of your head and put on the mind of Christ. Everyone will tell you about the power of positive energy and positive thinking to bring us the healing that we want and need. My dad was a doctor so I know how powerful the power of suggestion and the power of positive thoughts can be. All the translations are good on thiis one.

1 corinthians 10 5

We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

New Living Translation
We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ.

English Standard Version
We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ,

Berean Standard Bible
We tear down arguments and every presumption set up against the knowledge of God; and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.

Berean Literal Bible
overthrowing arguments, and every high thing lifting itself up against the knowledge of God, and taking captive every thought into the obedience of Christ,
