Subject: Suicide.....Hell or no. |
Bible Note: Hank I was writting this as a general comment but since you addressed your post to me let post it as a response to you. The debate of whether suicide is unforgivable or not is pointless, since none of us know God's mind on this subject. To argue that a suicide can be forgiven proves nothing but perhaps opens a door that someone may tragically enter. To argue that it can’t be forgiven places unnecessary heartache on loved ones left behind. I say to what end? If you and others believe a person that commits suicide can be forgiven okay, but should it be discussed on an open forum possibly read by someone that may at this very moment be considering such an act? For me and others that don’t believe a saved person will commit suicide that also is okay but should we be presenting our views on an open forum where it may cause others even more heartbreak in dealing with the suicide of a loved one? I see the discussion as serving no purpose and its only fruit is more hurt. I repent for having ever commented on the subject and in the further will respond to any such question much the way we respond to the question who did Cain marry. Personally I would like to see Lockman add the subject of suicide to the list of no no discussions. From my heart!!!!! I'm sorry and meant no one any pain. EdB |
