Therefore I tell you, people will be forgiven for every sin and blasphemy, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come."
Mark 3:28 "Truly I say to you, all sins shall be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter; Hebrews 10:12 but He (Jesus), having offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, sat down at the right hand of God. (This means that forgiveness was finished on the Cross of Christ.)
It depends only on what Jesus has done. In Christ, all of our sins are forgiven. God gives great grace to every sinner who repents. It is grace that abounds; grace that cannot be outmatched or outrun; grace that Jesus freely gives.
In Mark 3:29 Jesus says that “whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; they are guilty of an eternal sin.” Matthew's account adds that even blasphemy against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but not blasphemy against the Holy Spirit (Matthew 12:31–32).
We must remember that God's forgiveness through Jesus Christ is available for all sins, and it's His kindness that leads us to repentance (Romans 2:4, ESV). As believers, we're called to strive for holiness, knowing we serve a God who is merciful and just.
One eternal or unforgivable sin (blasphemy against the Holy Spirit), also known as the sin unto death, is specified in several passages of the Synoptic Gospels, including Mark 3:28–29, Matthew 12:31–32, and Luke 12:10, as well as other New Testament passages including Hebrews 6:4–6, Hebrews 10:26–31, and 1 John 5:16.
All Sin is not the Same
In fact, the Book of Proverbs (6:16-19) identifies seven things that God hates although there is not any punishment proscribed for those. Scripture clearly indicates that God does view sin differently and that He proscribed a different punishment for sin depending upon its severity.
These seven sins—idolatry, fornication, adultery, homosexuality, dishonesty, drunkenness, and foul language—can lead us away from God and prevent us from entering heaven. But there is hope. Repentance and turning away from these sins are key to restoring our relationship with God.
There are two things to remember here: (1) God's mercy is indeed infinite, and (2) true repentance means forsaking your sins. On the one hand, because of the infinite Atonement of Jesus Christ, repentance is available to everyone, even those who have made the same mistakes many times.
How are Other Sins Forgiven? Jesus said all other sins, even blaspheming Christ himself and cursing God, are forgivable.
Sin in your life as a Christian won't keep you out of Heaven, but it hurts your friendship with God. To make things right again, the Bible says, “If we confess our sins, he [God] is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify [clean] us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9).
It isn't blasphemy, as blasphemy is rejecting God until you die. However, it is a sin (one of the 10 commandments). Merriam-Webster defines "vain" as "having no real value". This statement that you make is equating God as "having no real value".
Forgiveness is one of the marvels of God's grace. Its healing power is magnificent. If a woman has been involved in abortion, God does not require that she spend the rest of her life walking around with a red “A” on her chest. He does require that she repent of her sin and come to Him for the cleansing of forgiveness.
Thus, “Sin that leads to death is deliberate refusal to believe in Jesus Christ, to follow God's commands, and to love one's brothers.”2 This was the behavior of those who were seeking to deceive John's hearers (1 John 2:26). This interpretation makes the most sense within the context of the letter.
In short, the unpardonable sin is any sin that we choose not to confess. If the Holy Spirit brings to mind a sin that we need to confess, but we choose not to confess it, then that sin cannot be forgiven.
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times. “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.
— J.F.D. Rev. Graham: Only one sin that can't be forgiven is on God's list — and that is the sin of rejecting Him and refusing His offer of forgiveness and new life in Jesus Christ. This alone is the unforgivable sin, because it means we are saying that the Holy Spirit's witness about Jesus is a lie (see Luke 12:10).
The sin of blaspheming the Holy Spirit is essentially the sin of rejecting Christ. By continually rejecting God's free gift of salvation in Jesus, a sinner sears his conscience (ignores the voice of the Holy Spirit) and stiffens his neck. Eventually, he gets to the place where genuine repentance is no longer possible.
The bottom line (and answer to this important question) is, God DOESN'T punish us when we fail. In fact, what He says is: “I am faithful and reliable. If you confess your sins, I will forgive them and cleanse you from everything you've done wrong” (1 John 1:9, author's first person interpretation).
[9] Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, [10] Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
“Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor reviler, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.”
The Bible itself does not contain direct references to abortion. Today, Christian denominations hold widely variant stances. Since the 20th century most mainline Protestant denominations support abortion legalization, while the Catholic Church and Eastern Orthodoxy condemn abortion under almost all circumstances.
according to the Bible it seems that god forgives all sins that aren't directly against him personally.
Christianity. Some Christians take issue with tattooing, upholding the Hebrew prohibition. The Hebrew prohibition is based on interpreting Leviticus 19:28—"Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you"—so as to prohibit tattoos. Interpretations of the passage vary, however.
