1 | Can one who commits suicide be saved? | Ex 20:13 | Good Samaritan | 10963 | ||
This answer makes the body equal to the spirit and implies that death of the body ends all! The spirit always was and always will be and anyone can seek, ask at any point during or after "death". Didn't Christ prove to us that there was no spiritual death? He simply laid aside the body he traveled in while here on earth. Resurrection was the message, not death. God wants all his sheep home with him, even the so called sinner or one who made the "error". No where in the bible does it say that if you didn't ask while in the body, you never get another chance! | ||||||
2 | Can one who commits suicide be saved? | Ex 20:13 | HeirofGod | 11524 | ||
No I will admit I haven't seen it in the text yet, but it does say that no sin would enter into heaven. Also the bible says that God hears not a sinner. You cannot use Jesus in this example because he knew no sin. Jesus's body also transformed into a glorified body which only the saints of God will have at the day of ressurection or the Rapture as we like to call it. Yes God wants all people to accept his call to repentance(which was the actual message), but not all will. So to make this statement will suggest that no one will go to hell, and that is definately not true. Spiritual death is for the unbeliever, one who has not accepted Christ so there is a spiritual death. Christ conquered death and hell(spiritual and natural death) for the believer, not everybody. The only way to become a believer is by accepting Christ. If you don't accept Christ, you don't accept God. Now for a Christian to commit suicide, I still don't believe God will forgive them, but that's something we'll find out when we get to heaven. These are the last days let's focus on getting people the message of salvation and teach them how to live right, that's really just about all we have time for. | ||||||
