Bible Question: Is it a sin to committ suicide? |
Bible Answer: Yes, it is a sin to commit suicide. "Thou shalt not kill." . . . Is it the unforgivable sin? Jesus said in Matt 12:31 (ASV 1901) "Therefore I say unto you, Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men; but the blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven." Note: "Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men..." According to Jesus Himself, there is but one unforgivable sin and it isn't suicide. It is "the blasphemy against the Spirit." In reply to my answer, we may hear a chorus of "ifs, ands, and buts." Nevertheless the plain words of Jesus stand. |
