Does god forgive suicide?

Do you go to hell if you commit Suicide of can God forgive you?

  • Please serious answers only. I am a 22 year old wife and mother and I feel that I have failed at everything being a wife being a mom. I don't have an education I left school my senior year and tried taking my GED but failed. I feel that I have nothing going for me other then my husband and daughter I have no other family to turn to. And lately I have been really depressed about everything even more then I have said here. I feel my daughter deserves better then what I can give her along with my husband. I am a Christian and I do believe that Jesus died on the cross for us and that he does forgive us all for our sins even those who have murdered. But does he forgive those who commit suicide.

  • Answer:

    Of coarse, he would. You wouldn't go to hell. I suggest you go see a therapist and let everything out to him, I have my own little journal and everyday I write in it about my depression. But please do not kill yourself, your daughter probably does really care and it will really effect her if you do and so would your husband tell your husband how you feel, and see if he cheers you up.

Suicide is a sin, but I don't think forgiveness from Christ is a major decision or factor in suicide, people commit suicide because they have to. there are some people who said Jesus will forgive, and some who said people who committed suicide will go to hell. There really is no telling who is right or wrong, we are all mortal beings, how can we guess what God really thinks? But, it is a good thing you are thinking about it, at least you still care about living. 2 parents are always better than 1 parent, even if you think you are not the best, a mom still means much more than a dead person. Life is more than what you don't have but more about what you already have. Grades are not everything, just look at all the unemployed college-grads out there, at least you don't have a student loan. In the real world, attitude is more important than straight A, be positive and talk to people more, talk to your pastor/cleric. Your voice is a way to your heart, and those who hear will connect with you, you are not alone.

Dont do it!! Your family really does need you! God loves you and its wrong to take your own life! Talk to a councilor or a pastor!

Well, being that murder is God's second commandments, no. You need to speak with your pastor or whomever is ahead at your church. You need to tell someone how you feel. Everyone will be there to support you. Don't do it. Don't be selfish, your family needs you.

I believe you do. Because, it has something to do with the seven deadly sins. But i believe if you really want to kill yourself. Don't it's not worth it. I have attempted 3 times.. and trust me it's not a road you want to go down. And if you feel like you aren't helping your daughter, how will you really help her when her own mother took her life?? Just don't. Talk to someone, go into a psychiatric hospital and receive help. It really helpsss.

Uhm..

Suicide should never be in question. Your daughter and husband will be devistated without you. Whatever your going through can get better. If you need to see someone there are people that can help you. Please, I beg you, my wife committed suicide last year and me and my son and daughter haven't recovered and we will never recover. The human life is more beautiful than any of us will ever know and its devistating to those who lose loved ones. PLEASE get help and be there for your daughter to see her grow up and for your husband to grow old with! YOLO (you only live once)! To answer your question, if you are thinking about it, then yes, it is an unforgivable sin.

Dear Britt, Whenever I answer a question like this, I'm deeply aware that someone may be reading this who is seriously contemplating suicide—and I would do everything in my power to convince them not to take that final, drastic step. With Christ there is always hope. God loves them; He loves them so much that Jesus Christ was willing to die on the cross for their salvation. And others care about them, as well (even if they have a hard time believing it). Suicide is never God's will, and even in the midst of life's worst storms we can look to Christ and discover that He truly is "an anchor for the soul, firm and secure" (Hebrews 6:19). The first step back from the brink of suicide is to turn to Christ and open our hearts to Him. If I could use only one sentence to point you toward lasting happiness it would be this: True happiness can only be found in God, for only He can meet the deepest yearnings of our hearts. Let me explain. You see, we aren't on this earth by accident. God created us, and He put us here for a reason: to know Him and to enjoy His presence in our lives, both now and throughout eternity. God even created us with an empty place in our hearts—an empty place that He alone can fill. The Bible says, "He has also set eternity in the hearts of men" (Ecclesiastes 3:11). Whenever we try to fill that empty place with anything or anyone other than God, we are bound to fail. No matter how many things we have or how successful we are, that empty place is still there. But when we come to Christ, we discover that God loves us, and He makes us part of His family. More than that, He comes to live within us by His Holy Spirit. Think of it: God wants you to be part of His family forever—beginning now. By faith turn to God and tell Him that you know you need Him. Then open your heart and life to Christ and ask Him to fill the empty places in your life. Jesus promised, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives" (John 14:27). Turn to Christ today and discover the joy and peace He alone can give. http://peacewithgod.jesus.net/

God does not send anyone to hell. People send themselves by committing the unpardonable sin of blaspheming the Holy Spirit by refusing to answer the call to salvation through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. Suicide is pretty good evidence someone has probably rejected this calling. I don't know why any Christian would commit suicide.

First of all, your daughter needs you. There will no one on this earth, and no one that will come to this earth, that will measure up to you. God made you special, and if you took that away from him, he wouldn't be too happy. There is a saying..."If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans." There are things in life that we can't control and we can't change. I struggle with that myself. You have been blessed with I'm sure a beautiful daughter and hopefully a supportive husband. I am not very religious but very spiritual. Not continuing on should not be an option, you will just come back for another life, with the same challenges. You may as well over come them now. I hope that this helps. I don't even know you, but keep going, you daughter deserves to have you fully in her life. Go to counseling, join a support group, talk to a priest, pastor, whom ever is in your community. Pray. Listen to the song 'Swim' by Jack's Mannequin. There is some reason you are here. You will see it.
