1 | Is suicide a sin? | Bible general Archive 1 | meElaine | 38590 | ||
I see that this question has been asked more than once (but I picked the most recent one to reply to, except the one that said reply with specific sciptures), but I just wanted to jump in with my view point on this. First, I do believe it is a sin to committ suicide. It is taking on God's role as the one who decides when life ends. As Job said, "The LORD gives and the LORD takes away." (Job 1:21)Only God has that right. I do not believe it is murder; I think murder is the taking of the life of one who wants to live. And lastly, I do not believe that you are condemned to hell based on sins such as killing, lying, rebelling, etc., but only on the basis of having refused to believe in the name of the only begotten Son, the Lamb who was slain. |
