All sins can be forgiven except one

By -


This particular bible verse caught my eye today and I thought of sharing:

"So I tell you, every sin and blasphemy can be forgiven--except blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, which will never be forgiven."

 Matthew 12:31,  Mark 3:28-29, Luke 12:10
So what is actually blasphemy against the Holy Spirit? In Catholic teaching there are six sins that blaspheme against the Holy Spirit. They are:


  1. Despair (believing that one's evil is beyond God's forgiveness);
  2. Presumption (glory without merit, that is, hope of salvation without keeping the Commandments, or expectation of pardon for sin without repentance)
  3. Envying the goodness of another (sadness or repining at another's growth in virtue and perfection);
  4. Obstinacy in sin (willful persisting in wickedness, and running on from sin to sin, after sufficient instructions and admonition);
  5. Final impenitence (to die without either confession or contrition for our sins);
  6. Impugning the known truth (to argue against known points of faith, and this includes misrepresenting parts or all of the Christian faith to make it seem undesirable)

Going through the list, it sounds like those sins a person does not have any insight they are committing.

We opened our beautiful Saturday morning, 8th April 2017 with a Gasing hike. 22 angelic 😇😇 members joined the fun. Our CHOICE friend, Ali  on the other hand, had no choice but to come to honour the 'memorandum of understanding' that was made with the CHOICE team. Ahem.. thank you people for persistently attending  morning mass for this purpose 😂😂😁. He also came for health reasons la.. This is the story of our Ali. As he was hiking Gasing hill for the first time, he saw this... Wahlaowei... he muttered. Dia pun berkata, "Merenung masa depan, turun tak boleh, naik lagi tak boleh😜😜😜."  hahahah, jangan marah Alis  And then... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... He is still there😆😜 Sitting like a meditating Buddha. Already bertaubat d from He is also very sweet and 'helpful' "Cherry, u ok? I jaga u ar..."😂😂 " Cherry, jum duduk jap"😂😂😜😜 Alex

Kuala Selangor Trip

How many of you have witnessed a meteor shower??  A bunch of us got really excited when we got to know that this phenomenon can be witnessed in a few spots outside of KL and we just decided to drive down to Sekinchan, Kuala Selangor after our roadshow in Our Lady of Fatima, Brickfields. The phenomenon was expected to take place around 1.30am. We reached at 1.15am, thanks to our 2fast&furious drivers👏👏 and then we waited anxiously for the meteors. We waited.... Waited.... And waited... for hours... but all we saw was the beach and the dark sky😓😓😓 We weren't discouraged though. When a gang of choicees gather, there's bound to be silly jokes, lots of fun and laughter...till we scared all the people at the beach who were there before us. That is how noisy we were..HAHAHAHA After hours of waiting, we decided to head home before the sun comes up. Despite the sleepless night, our champion Joy Nathan managed to complete the 5km colour run, that morning.
