Does God forgive suicide?

2020-06-17 7:35 am
I suffer from bipolar depression and I’ve been having thoughts of suicide since I was 17 and now I’m 28. I was molested, raped, physically abused and jumped most of my life. I’ve been broken from time to time. Will God forgive me if I take my life. I’ve already accepted Jesus into my heart and know that he died for my sins.

I'm sorry for your troubles; but honestly, please 
don't hurt yourself. You are worth so much more 
than appearences show. Even homeless people
don't commit suicide. 

And to your answer your que, if you end your life,
I believe you will have to reincarnate back into 
the same situation so you'll experience the same 
challenges. It's not worth it and terrible for Karma.

You need help. Get help and medication and God will be happy.

I mean ... if you go in a car at 80 miles per hour to your work, you are literally trying to commit involuntary suicide

Suicide is never a solution no matter how hard life is. Get help and surround yourself with happy family and friends you’ll get through this.

Look up Isaiah 43:2 and  40:31; Philippians 4:6-8; 1 Peter 5:6,7.

If you commit suicide, all opportunity for you to serve God will be over.  God can use your experiences to help you minister to others.  Refer to 2 Corinthians  1:4

Please don't kill yourself.  That would be a waste.

https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/suicide/#ChrPro (This is Stanford university, not some unknown source).


The bible and all church fathers/first christians were very clear.  Suicide is not forgivable.  It is probably one of the unforgiveable things.  The reason why is pretty clear, “We are stewards, not owners, of the life God has entrusted to us. It is not ours to dispose of.”


I am not sure if you are a troll, christian or neither.  you asked a general question.  But Christ intentionally choose to endure temporary pain without a long term suffering for a much greater good.  He could have killed himself but he used himself as an example.  He intentionally choose to accept what happened on earth so those on earth could see.  I am not 100% sure how people make the jump to Christ allowed this to happen so he could magically make all future sins for the next several thousand years just disappear.


If you are a devout christian, god choose to give you life.  You did not demand it.  God knew what would happen but chose you - is he stupid? Its ok to not believe in God.  But to think he did not fully understand what would happen?  He knew ahead of time, while there is freewill he allowed it to happen.  Possible you have endured more pain or suffered more than Christ or billions of others.

Accepting life is our purpose.

The greatest gift to god, to accept jesus is to endure


str.org/w/god-has-a-purpose-in-suffering-


There is beauty/necessity behind all pain.  There is tremendous value do god in it.  Did christ not make that clear?Possibly you were wrong/sinful?  I dunno.....Anyhow it is one of the few unforgivable things.  I'd argue god wants strength.  People who are christ like.  who can give all while accept or even take on pain or hardship so others won't.  Is that you?   No idea.....God wants us to accept, endure and prevail through suffering or hardship:http://thebriefing.com.au/2013/11/gods-gifts-in-suffering-6-god-gives-us-strength-to-endure-not-escape/Christ demanded more to prove his [email protected]

This is what the Catechism says:

Suicide

2280 Everyone is responsible for his life before God who has given it to him. It is God who remains the sovereign Master of life. We are obliged to accept life gratefully and preserve it for his honor and the salvation of our souls. We are stewards, not owners, of the life God has entrusted to us. It is not ours to dispose of.

2281 Suicide contradicts the natural inclination of the human being to preserve and perpetuate his life. It is gravely contrary to the just love of self. It likewise offends love of neighbor because it unjustly breaks the ties of solidarity with family, nation, and other human societies to which we continue to have obligations. Suicide is contrary to love for the living God.

2282 If suicide is committed with the intention of setting an example, especially to the young, it also takes on the gravity of scandal. Voluntary co-operation in suicide is contrary to the moral law.

Grave psychological disturbances, anguish, or grave fear of hardship, suffering, or torture can diminish the responsibility of the one committing suicide.

2283 We should not despair of the eternal salvation of persons who have taken their own lives. By ways known to him alone, God can provide the opportunity for salutary repentance. The Church prays for persons who have taken their own lives.


Don't take your life. 
God has plans for you. 

Psalm 139:16
Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.

John  16:33
These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.


Jeremiah 31:25
For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.

Accepting Jesus has obviously NOT done anything for you. 
If you live long enough to see how the actions of a pauper 
in a book do not affect the reality of here and now, you may 
be better off for it. Acceptance of Jesus does NOT prove that 
his existence ever took place. Use your own common sense. 
Anyone who says that they are "the only way to God" is a fool. 
God is irreplaceable, and when you leave this life you will find out that He never placed anyone or anything between you and Himself.

God doesn't exist and you're a troll.
