Lanthacide: Ew?
DarkLynx21: I do not like heavy religion stuffs at all
Lanthacide: This isn't heavy religion
DarkLynx21: ...*shrugs*
Lanthacide: Also...showing hostility toward God is the one unforgivable thing you can do.
DarkLynx21: *punches god*
Lanthacide: ....
DarkLynx21: you totally asked for that
Lanthacide: Why are you like that?
DarkLynx21: because I find the people that follow the bible so much and believe we'll all burn in hell for anything to be closeminded and stupid.
Lanthacide: I don't belive that you'll burn in Hell for ANYTHING!
DarkLynx21: okay, that's nice of you. but haven't I just commited like a zillion sins, one "unforgivable"?

Hmmm...

Well, I don't really think that any sin is truly unforgivable (people say that there are, but I don't recall ever reading it in the Bible, and I've read the Bible all the way through), but that's not the point here. I'll pray for this person, you, and the situation, but also, let me try giving some advice (Lord, help me here).

Perhaps you should just try to maintain a peaceful friendship with this person, but continue to witness to them. Obviously they are willing to discuss Christianity with you, so you can try to say some more to them. The best thing to say is to show the wonderful, happy, joyous things that a life with God includes. Maybe not concentrating on hell so much (he or she already seems to have a slight grasp on that) but instead maybe focusing on Heaven and everything else that is wonderful about being a child of God.

Hope this helps in some way, and I'll pray.

Just thought I would let you know that it is in the Bible. Mt. 12:31-32

Therefore I say to you: Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven men, but the blasphemy of the Spirit shall not be forgiven.

And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but he that shall speak against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in the world to come.

I'm not sure if your friends actions fall under this or not but I'll definitely pray that he has a change of heart.

Heh. I meet people with that kind of attitude more often than I care to mention. If that individual isn't willing to accept God's standard of morality, then what is he or she using in its stead? His/her own opinion? If each man is to define his own morality, why are YOU considered close-minded? Ask your friend that and maybe he/she will get to thinking.... Oh, and I will pray too! = )

Hey, I feel ya, I run across this all the time, (perhaps I ask for it )
Prayer is sometimes the only real valuable thing you can do after a conversation like this, maybe you should just ask them to visit CAA and
make their judgement then, do it on the premises of "Equal Opportunity Employment"

The unforgivable sin, from my understanding, is not contempt for God (many, many saints at some point have done the very same thing) but it is blaspheming the Holy Spirit. Jesus says this after the Pharisees see the miracles done through the Holy Spirit, but do not acknowledge it as the work of God. Suffice it to say that your friend is not guilty of this.

I will pray for your friend. Also if you haven't visited http://www.carm.org/ I highly recommend it as it can help you answer questions about your faith and can be a tool for evangelism.
