I don’t know...maybe I’m on the wrong thread, but since I’m former RCC here goes....
Jesus Forgives...if you ask Him in Repentance with a broken heart.
There’s only one “unforgivable” sin and here’s the scripture to prove it:
Mark 3:22-30
Matthew 12:22-32
You go to your grave denying the Deity of Jesus and that He is the Christ, born, died, rose from the dead (Romans 10:9-10)...then it’s unpardonable.
The disagreement isn’t going to go away overnight; it has to do with whether the scriptures (all written as witnesses of Jewish or Christian faith, it scarcely needs to be added, but yet could stand to be) can be trusted to carry the Lord’s message and blessing on their own, or a given contemporary body of men is needed to furnish something missing.
It is very easy for men to be heavy handed with things “religious.” It fulfills their fallen desire to dominate, inherited from the devil through the common fall of mankind. I’d argue that the gospel of John itself argues for Christian faith to be a “scripture” faith. That however well men may advise, sooner or later they must move out of the way and make room for pure God.
True,and thank God.

All true as well. And the reason it's :"unforgivable" is because the sinner is rejecting Jesus' mercy, which is always offered but, tragically, not always wanted or accepted.<> The Catholic Church has always condemned abortion as a mortal sin, but has never called it an unforgivable sin. The unforgivable sin is refusing the Source of forgiveness.
