What is the unforgivable sin?
There is a friar whose text I read on this topic, Friar Lawrence Farley, who explains it better than I could.
>The context of Christ’s declaration reveals it: the sin against the Holy Spirit is the sin of rejecting Christ as a blaspheming deceiver. The Pharisees saw Christ’s miracles and His spectacular exorcisms. They could not deny the reality of the exorcisms; they just said that He could only do such things because He was in league with Satan. “It is only by Beel-zebul, the prince of demons, that this man casts out demons” (Matthew 12:24). (Note in passing their malevolence and hatred of Jesus: they cannot even bring themselves to say His Name. He is “this man”.) This is not just slander against Jesus, but against the Spirit of God Himself, for it declares the Holy Spirit through which Jesus cast out demons (Matthew 12:28) was an unclean spirit. Our Lord’s foes were in fact setting themselves against all that God was doing, rejecting His coming Kingdom as a deception and a fraud. That Kingdom was the only place where grace and forgiveness flowed into the world, so that by continuing to reject the Kingdom, they rejected with it the only source of forgiveness. Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit was not unforgivable in the sense that God refused to forgive those who repented of it, but because in persisting in this sin they cut themselves off from the possibility of forgiveness.
 
If it isn't re-affirmed through the tradition of the church or through Christian (New Testament) scripture itself, then I'd say you could call it the latter, a remnant of old Jewish law. We don't need to avoid things like wearing mixed fabrics, for example.
Isn’t modern rabbinical judaism based off the Talmud way more different then old actual judaism and also dont rabbis today dismiss the Old Testament and Torah as just myths?

How do you know for sure that you have blasphemed the Holy Spirit?

Rabbis still take the Torah and Old Testament as truth to some level (which will vary between them, depends on the type of Jew, really), yes, but, indeed, modern Judaism is a product of their own, evil culture in comparison to any holy scriptures, and the Talmud is its primary source of this culture. Really, the "true Jews" were those who accepted the Messiah when He came, and "Judaism" as a religion has structured itself near-entirely around rejecting Christ by various means, one way or anoither.

Well, as the Friar puts it, it was something only the Pharisees were capable of through their witnessing of a miracle of Christ, so none of us can do it in this time, anymore. I've written a bit about it myself in the past, if that explains it in a more understandable tone.

Animated a study on Romans 1:1-17 yesterday.

Ended up making the moral applications of the text on Paul's actions and way of speaking.



In verse 1 in first calls himself servant if Christ, then Apostle. Showing which comes first and what it truly is to be a disciple.

In verses 1-6 and 7 Paul uses the word "called" to talk about his and the disciples attributes, showing that none are earned by deeds but given. Also showing an example of obedience.

In verse 5, Paul returns all of his gifts to God, refusing to take praise for them himself.

From verses 1-7 He makes the salutations, and immeditaly identifies himself to God, making the longest part of the salutation about God.

Immediatly at the start of the letter he praises God, in verse 8. He even says "firstly".

From verses 9-10 he explains how he lives with daily prayers for the Church.

In verses 11, 12 and 13, Paul talks about the way he lives communion and fraternity through mutual growth

Verses 14-15 he explains how he lives his mission, by the Hand of God everyday, not knowing where he goes but only knowing he can spread the gospel.

Verse 16 : He takes pride in his mission.

In conclusion, Paul identifies himself as a servant of God, within God. He never attributes anything to himself and returns every glory to God. He always praises God through his actions, it is the first thing he does. He lives in daily prayer, and prays for the Church vehemently. He remains humble, and while remaining a father and a teacher, also grows from the members of the Church he sees as equals. He follows God and obeys him blindly. And he takes pride in all of that.

With that said, I haven't even prayed myself yet, so I'm gonna take his example and do that right now kek
