    • The unforgivable sin as understood by Protestants

     

    Protestantism generally does not understand the true... Explanation vis a vis the unforgivable sin. The unforgivable sin is not just saying unkind words to God or whatever... How could THAT be the one and only unforgivable sin? If you live long enough in this world, you will say unkind things to God!!!!!

    But those who do not understand the Bible believe this kind of thing.
    The unforgivable sin is to reject Christ's forgiveness, and do so UNTIL death. End of Sentence. This is the only sin that is not forgiven in “the age to come” (Purgatory), as mentioned in Mt 12:32. The blasphemers in that passage (whom Jesus address) know that Jesus is the Messiah but they reject him anyway. And yet this teaching is not clear from that scripture alone (sola scriptura) or any other—or even all the others combined...  Only the Church Christ founded (The Roman Catholic Church) can interpret Scripture infallibly. Maybe most of the Bible (New Testament, that is) can be understood by a 10-year old. But what about the parts that are not easily understood?

     

    This whole issue of the unforgivable sin—what that is, etc... is the best example of why we need a CHURCH. Anyone can read the Bible. Not everyone can be presumed to interpret it infallibly. In fact, no human, un-aided by Jesus Christ himself (His Church) can do that.

    As unhappy as I am with the Cathlic Church as it is today, I will always be Catholic.

     It is the pope (and co.) who are not Catholic IMO

    • There is no such thing as a Protestant religion or Church, as each Protestant is his own church of one. Therefore, since what one Protestant believes can be and is always opposed to another Protestant, you can't say "The unforgivable sin as understood by Protestants".

    The rest of what you wrote is your personal opinion. See and read the thread: Personal Opinions about the Faith are a Sign of Laziness  https://www.cathinfo.com/general-discussion/personal-opinions-about-the-faith-are-a-sign-of-laziness/

    I do not believe what I believe based on personal opinion but on Revelation as revealed to me through the Catholic (the true Catholic) Church (yet, of course, we do have to agree with such... ). You are presumptuous  in the extreme to say otherwise. Presumption is a particularly despicable thing in my eyes...

    Then post what the Catholic Church teaches with quotes from authorities like Fathers, Doctors, and Popes. All you have posted so far is your personal opinions.

    • Graceseeker, I suggest you go to the online Bible http://www.drbo.org and put your reference Mt 12:32 in the search engine; that will bring you to the passage of which you speak. You will notice some words are underlined. That is because the underlined words are commented on just below. In this case verse 31, "The blasphemy of the Spirit"  and verse 32,  "Nor in the world to come". A very useful tool.

    • not one person here has argued my point. And how can they? this is what the Church teaches.

    so stupid to think that saying some unkind words to God is THE one and only unforgivable sin... but I pity those not raised in the Catholic Church.. the only Church, objectively speaking

    • I wonder if voting Democrat proves you have committed the unforgivable sin?

    I guess the person would have to die unrepentant for us to even begin to speculate...

    why people take chances is beyond me.. Better safe than sorry
