Do people who commit suicide go to hell?

[dgolvach]

Since I am of the OSAS camp, I suppose I believe born-again Child of God will not parish regardless. (I could be wrong). I also suffer from a hellish cronic pain condition that is slowly taking me down. I gave serious thought to the suicide solution last year. About 2 weeks ago I was given the opportunity to share the Gospel with an old High School friend and did so with positive results.( check it out in the praises section) I wonder what happens to the souls of those we were going to get to lead to God, had we not ended it(life) ourselves? Where do they end up? Perhaps God's plan in their life was you. What if the person who led you to Christ took themselves out before they got around to telling you the good news? Where would you be headed? When will God put that unsaved person in your path? Tommorow? Next week? Next year? I say stick around and screw up Satan's plans as long as possible. Someone's eternity might depend on it. Maybe even someone you love.

Excellent exhortation Dan!!! We have an obligation don't we. There's no shirking it either. So in wellness or in pain, we are STILL servants of Christ and those He sends our way. It doesn't change with our circumstances. We are STILL His.

In His Love,

Irene M,

I spent years in clinical depression (it was 24/7) and God has brought me out of it, PRAISES BE TO JESUS!

The Bible says that if we destroy our body (the temple), God will destroy us.

OSAS is downright a terrible doctrine because it gives a false sense of security. It is just terrible to tell someone they will go to heaven if they kill themselves when the Bible says if we destroy ourselves that God will destroy us and it also says no murderer has eternal life.

The Bible says we must endure to the end to be saved.

Good day friends,

I don't post often but i like to read what my brethren write about every once in a while. I was drawn to this topic and i have some thoughts that i'd want to share. Suicide is a touchy subject, but I want to give my 2 cents just in case somebody reading this is contemplating it. It was mentioned before that rejection of the Holy Spirit is the Unforgiveable sin. Now if that is the unpardonable sin...I would think those who commit it would not enter into eternal life with Jesus. Having mentioned that I'm pondering whether or not the Holy Spirit would want someone to destroy themselves because of what they are experiencing. The bible teaches that God doesn't give us more than we can bear, but in an event that someone decides that God has, aren't they going against the will of the Holy Spirit. Doesn't the NT talk about God destoying the one who destroys/ defiles his temple(body)?

I do not want to judge someone elses salvation but sometimes things in their lives are evident. But, you have to remember that suicide can be involuntary at times. Think of the people who decided to jump rather than burn during the 9/11 ordeal. Or even Sampson who commited suicide but has his name written in Hebrews with the men of faith. It's something I would suggest you pray to God about concerning loved ones who have decided to take the route of suicide.

Love you guys in christ
