The body’s sacredness 1 Corinthians 6:19; Prohibition against murder Exodus 20:13; and faith's expectancy 2 Timothy 4:6–8, 18. Suicide violates the essential of salvation--faith in God. God has already revealed to us ( Exodus 20) that murder is indeed a sin. Suicide involves murder of self. Unless the suicide is a failure the individual cannot repent, therefore they die with transgressions still accountable to them.

This thread isn't about suicide at all, but the intent of the heart that only God sees. There is no right or wrong opinions in this thread because the fact is, we really just don't know. Only God does.....but I still like stating my opinion and reading the opinions of others.
