It seems most Christians are familiar with Matt 12:31-32; Luke 12:10; and Mark 3:28-30; and blasphemy of the Holy Spirit.
Some don't believe these apply anymore, other believe they still apply today. (Is there any scripture that says they don't apply?
If not, why wouldn't they still apply?)
The second unforgivable sin is taking the mark of the beast. Once it's taken you can't be forgiven. (Rev 14:9-11; Rev 20:4; )
Some say suicide is an unforgivable sin, I'm not sure I agree, but I don't really know for sure. I suppose it would be difficult
to ask for forgiveness after the fact. But God know our hearts better than we do.
Finally some say that unbelief is a sin. This means different things to different people. It could be as simple as I don't believe
God can or cannot do something. Usually this mean I believe in Jesus as my savior or not. Well, I agree none of us will get to heaven without Jesus.
Some say it's unforgivable, but if that's true we are all in trouble because many of us didn't believe at some point before we got saved.
So then if we start believing, God must forgive us, if he forgives us, it must not be unforgivable if we repent of unbelief.
There are a group of Christians that say it is God who chooses who believes and who doesn't believe. Not us.
If unbelief is a sin, does God really cause this sin? Does He cause some to disbelieve? Or are we simply born ignorant and then once we learn the truth
it is up to us to accept to believe in Him or not.
