Hi,
I don't know how to run back to God, I keep having blasphemous thoughts about God and the Holy spirit.
I'm beginning to doubt, and I just don't know what to do. I want to believe and have faith, but I don't know how.
I'm afraid I've committed the unforgivable sin, because I had similar thoughts like the pharisees. I know it's not true, but I keep having them. I thought Jesus died at the cross for all sins, but not this one? So does it mean that I can't get baptized anymore?
I've lost everything, I cant even seem to read the bible, because I think his promises don't apply to me anymore, so it just feels like a torture to be living everyday, but I know I should be thankful about still being alive.

Jen, your profile says you aren't sure if you're saved.
I think that is the place to start.

I'd recommend you try talking privately to some of the Christian girls around here, to get some advice and counsel.
We have some older gals who are very wise and knowledgeable, and we have some younger girls who also know the Bible pretty well.

Surrender your opposition to God.
He is bigger and more powerful than you, anyways :)
Not to say He is going to strongarm you to make you believe ;)
But He does desire everyone to come to a knowledge of the Truth, and be saved.
The Truth is, He loves you so much, He gave His only Son to pay our sin debt.

Blasphemy is to be defiantly irreverent about God and what He stands for.
So, unless you are defiantly irreverent about love, truth, justice, mercy, you then have not been blasphemous.

Incorrect.. Blasphemy is denying that Jesus, God and the Holy Spirit exist..

Welcome to CC. :) You may want to go to the bible forum with these concerns. The introductions forum isn't the appropriate spot..

Jesus died for all sins. And baptism doesn't save you. Your faith and belief, through God's grace, is what saves you. :)

Jenn 9917,
The Pharisees were traditionalists. They opposed what Jesus was saying as their traditions took precedence over love, truth, and justice.
In defense of their traditions over love, truth, and justice, they mocked Jesus and the Holy Spirit who taught these principles (the Way).

When the beasts mouth (aka the antichrist), blasphemes the Lord in Revelation 13:5-6, will he simply be declaring that Jesus, God, and the Holy Spirit do not exist, or will the blasphemies against God/love, His tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven, the beasts mouth/the Antichrist will speak be a little more substantial than a mere denial of their existence?
The blasphemies from the beasts mouth/the Antichrist, like those from the Pharisees against the Holy Spirit will be against what God represents: love, truth, justice, mercy.

Revelation 13:5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.

Hi Jenn

Understand that there is a part of us, all of us, that is at war with God. As it is written the carnal nature is at enmity with God, not subject to His Law. To a greater or smaller degree, everyone who follows the Christ struggles with this in whatever area of their life they are weakest. The very fact that you admit your struggle shows that you are in the fight, a fight none of us can win on our own. Thank God, for the sacrifice made and the giving of His Holy Spirit which enables us to prevail, day by day, growing stronger in grace and knowledge. The only time we can lose is when we give up, thank God He does not give up on us.
I pray for your strengthening Jen, and know we are never alone in this fight.
