Question:
Is suicide sin? If you’re born again and commit suicide, will you go to hell?
Answer:
Examples from Scripture of those who committed suicide are Saul, Judas, and Ahithophel. “Thou shalt not kill” (Exodus 20:13), would imply that killing yourself is a sin, but is it an unforgivable sin?
Some examples of murderers receiving forgiveness are David (Romans 4:6, 7); the thief on the cross; and to those who killed Jesus, He said: “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do” (Luke 23:34). Paul was involved with the murder of Stephen and others, and he was forgiven (Acts 13:38, 39). Once we are saved, nothing can separate us from the love of God (Romans 8:38, 39).
