1 | Is suicide a sin? | Ex 20:13 | FisH | 4018 | ||
1 john is talking to believers and it is not talking about heaven. It is talking about fellowship with God not heaven at all. The theme of the book is: What should a believer do to walk in fellowship with the Lord. 1 John 2:17 "The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God lives forever." Who is God's will for? ##There is nothing about heaven in this verses. What is the "Will of God"? What do the following verses have to do with a Christian committing suicide? NOTHING! 4 For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved for judgment; 5 and did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when He brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; 6 and if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction by reducing them to ashes, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly lives thereafter; 7 and if He rescued righteous Lot, oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men 8 (for by what he saw and heard that righteous man, while living among them, felt his righteous soul tormented day after day by their lawless deeds), 9 then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment, 10 and especially those who indulge the flesh in its corrupt desires and despise authority. Daring, self-willed, they do not tremble when they revile angelic majesties, 11 whereas angels who are greater in might and power do not bring a reviling judgment against them before the Lord. 12 But these, like unreasoning animals, born as creatures of instinct to be captured and killed, reviling where they have no knowledge, will in the destruction of those creatures also be destroyed, 13 suffering wrong as the wages of doing wrong. They count it a pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are stains and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions, as they carouse with you, 14 having eyes full of adultery that never cease from sin, enticing unstable souls, having a heart trained in greed, accursed children; 15 forsaking the right way, they have gone astray, having followed the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; 16 but he received a rebuke for his own transgression, for a mute donkey, speaking with a voice of a man, restrained the madness of the prophet. 17 These are springs without water and mists driven by a storm, for whom the black darkness has been reserved. 18 For speaking out arrogant words of vanity they entice by fleshly desires, by sensuality, those who barely escape from the ones who live in error, 19 promising them freedom while they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by what a man is overcome, by this he is enslaved. 20 For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world by the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and are overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first. 21 For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn away from the holy commandment handed on to them. 22 It has happened to them according to the true proverb, "A DOG RETURNS TO ITS OWN VOMIT," and, "A sow, after washing, returns to wallowing in the mire." Just to make sure you understand what I said. Yes, a Christian can "live" in sin and still go to heaven. Without a doubt. Why do you think it is called "Eternal Life"? Why is it called a gift? Not something you work for. It's free. One must learn to keep verses in there context. I'm not sure what your trying to do. There is not one verse in all the Bible that says if a Christian lives in their sin they won't go to heaven. Show me one, just one. Hermenutics to ya. Have a great day. FisH |

You say "I believe", but where does the Bible say suicide is murder. That is all I'm interested in not what you believe. The Bible is the final truth not me or you. Next, where does the Bible say that "unconfessed sin will not get anyone to heaven"? If I start tell you what I believe you can let me know also. So lets stay focus on God's word. Lets also make sure it (The Bible) does say what we say it says about the subject we are talking about. Now I read the verse you gave me but it doesn't say anything about suicide. So go back and look again. These are not mean words even if they sound mean, this is good for both of us, God Bless. FisH |

One does not have to repent in order to receive eternal life. To recieve eternal life one must only, trust in Christ alone by faith alone. When one does that, that person recieve ETERNAL LIFE, and nothing less. |

4 | Can one who commits suicide be saved? | Ex 20:13 | FisH | 3790 | ||
Yes, JVH, I'm with you all the way. I am also a member of the ' Grace Evangelical Society ' Their web site is at,-- http://www.faithalone.org/. It's a great ministry and they are strong on, Faith alone in Christ alone. If we come to a passage that contradict another passage we had better rethink, restudy, and start all over again. Because scripture always agrees. I'm big on context if we stay in context rarely will we have a problem. I main tain that most of the problem with the teaching in the Church to day is, hermeneutices. The application of principles that make the Bible clear. Some times I'm reluctant to say this because it can become a point of contention but I'm also a dispensationalist. It is not something I make a big deal about to other. But I will argue to the death ' Faith Alone In Christ Alone. You know what, JVH, I just love the Bible and studing this wonderful Book. Honestly I can't get enough of it. I have had just recently the Lord answer a prayer about something I wanted to understand. He was good enough to let me get a little better understanding and it is wonderful. My point is that God wants us to center our understand of this life from the perspective of His Word doen't He? God Bless you Brother. FisH |

I agree it is important to use God's word correctly if we are going to use at all. I weary of those folks who just keep throwing out verses to prove a point or teach a doctrine that have nothing whatsoever to do with the point or doctrine in they are teaching. I believe strongly in useing God's word in it's context. If we who believe in useing God's Word in it's contest, keep it in front of our brothers and sister out there who tend to use verses out of context maybe we can help them better understand God's Word.

No my man, I'm not saying that the Old and New Testament aren't in agreement when they are talking about the same subject. Remember though the New Testament fulfills the Old Testament. The Bible is not one book but 66 books unified to proclaim the progessive revelation of God. Please, don't put words in my notes that are not there. I said nothing about obsolete. However, the Bible is a book of many, many subject. One needs to be careful that one uses the Word of God in it's context. Not pull verse from all over the Bible stick them together and think they always relate because they do not. Some of the verses you wrote down had nothing to do with the subject at hand. That's all I'm saying. 2 Tim. 2:15 "Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth". We are to handle God's Word with care. An example might be much of the Old Testament was written to the Jews Not to the Church. let me illustrate, read Lev. say the first six chapters. Is that for us? No, it was for Israel. Although there is much we can learn about God, His grace, love, compassion, etc. We are not to apply to the church today, Leviticus. Just trying to help I really don't want to argue the point. You may not understand what I'm trying to say. That's cool bro, life will go on. 'INHISMIGHTYGRIPOFGRACE' FisH |

That is just my point,brother. Rom. 1 There is no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus. Your right and then go to chapter 8 there is nothing that can separate us from His love. Nothing! You are mistaken your self brother. Your are confused when you mix all these verse to gether from the old and New Testament that have nothing at all to do with each other and the subjest being discussed. I not being harsh but us scripture in its context only. Do not use verse to prove a point out of there context. Make sure you know what they mean where they are before you use them somewhere else. Again I am not trying to be mean at all. I just want to help. |

Yes, one can commit suicide and still be saved. One can commit any sin and still be saved. Read through the Old and New Testament. Read James the believers were committing murder, Wow. Check out the Romans 8 the last few verses. |

15 | Is there a Heaven? | 2 Cor 5:6 | FisH | 2388 | ||
Think about what Jesus said to the man hanging on the cross beside Him. "Today you will be with me in paradise". Jesus gave him assurance that there was something after death. Something good, a place we would all want to go to, if we had been hanging there. Yes, there is a heaven. Check out your Bible it is all over the place. It is also call "Eternal Life". And many other terms. But only for those who have trusted in Jesus Christ as thier savior. Because He died for our sins to give us eternal life, (heaven). We have an Awesome God... FisH |
