Bible Question: Can one who commits suicide be saved? |
Bible Answer: It depends upon the situation. If the person is mentally ill and does not have control of their judgments and actions, how can they be held accountable? As for other cases where persons just simply wish to escape burdens of life, it is difficult to know exactly how God would view it. In principle, I believe suicide to be wrong. Only God should give and take innocent life. |
