Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come."

Also Called[]
- Absolute/Meta/Omni/Ultimate Sin/Temptation/Vice Inducement
- Eternal/Unforgivable/Unpardonable Sin/Temptation/Vice Inducement
Capabilities[]
The user can induce eternal sins onto others, which is a sin that’s stated to arise when a soul willingly rejects the existence and authority of the Supreme Being, the act must be done with full knowledge that the deity exists and full acceptance of their role as an omnipotent power: for example a character must see a Meta Miracle or Divine Manifestation, a chance for Salvation and directly reject said Salvation.
This causes a complete rift between the character and the deity, condemning them to forever be unable to join with the deity or its Paradise / Creation, thus they will endure a cursed existence and eventual soul erasure (depending on the setting).
Due to the exceptional requirements for this sin to occur many state it is near-impossible for humans to achieve this, it is thus reserved for angels and anti-christ figures, it is also stated that any who fear committing such a sin are by definition unable to commit it.
Applications[]
- Despair Inducement
- Guilt Inducement
- Hatred Inducement
- Meta Fear Inducement
- Paranoia Inducement
- Self-Hatred Inducement
Variations[]
Six Eternal Sins[]
Despair: Which consists in considering that one's own malice is greater than Divine Benevolence, as the Master of the Sentences teaches, especially whenever it comes to believing that one’s sin is not way down under a Monotheistic Deity’s forgiveness.
Envy: Jealousy towards the goodness of another individual, especially with sadness or repining at another's growth in virtue and perfection.
Impenitence: To physically die without either confession or contrition for our sins.
Impugnation: To argue against known points of faith, and can also include misrepresenting parts or all of the Christian faith to make it seem undesirable.
Presumption: If an individual wants to gain glory without any merits or pardon without repentance.
Obstinacy: Willful persisting in wickedness, and running on from vice to vice, after sufficient instructions and admonition.

Limitations[]
- Meta Power Immunity/Omnilock
- Doesn't affect a truly omnipotent being.
- Can not be induced on unwilling beings, as a core mechanic of this sin is willing rejection of a deity (thus if a user was forced to commit such an act they would, by virtue of being forced, be free of the sin).
- In consequence of owning this power, the user might become hypocritical as a result of possessing and misusing it, and in return, he/she will be inflicted on some of the eternal vices.
- Users of Eternal Virtue Inducement might be able to remove the eternal sins.
- Users of Omni Purification can remove the eternal sins.
