Agreed. All sin is forgiven past present and future. Amen and thank you Jesus.

I’ve watched NDE from suicide and I also believe they go to heaven. I don’t believe it’s the most selfish thing a person can do. Unless you’ve walked in someone’s shoes, you will never know the pain some people feel. I think it’s selfish in many ways but it’s also a sign of the pain that has become unbearable for a person who has lost his or her entire family.

thank God Jesus is nothing like people

I am currently battling the temptation of suicide. My dad, grandmother, a friend, and my sweet wife, who was my best friend in the world, have all died in the last 4 months. I am in constant pain and agony. Doesn't matter how much I cry out to God, how much I pray, how much I praise and worship, how much I read my Bible, I'm still in horrible agony and have unbelievable anxiety. Hoping God will give me some relief soon because I don't know how much longer I can go on.

Some people may hurt so bad and feel so hopeless in this life that they want to jump into Jesus' arms.

My son took his life after a tour in Afghanistan. He came back wrong!! He prayed with me as a child and accepted Christ. He was giving money to The 600 Club cuz he watched it as a child. So tell me my son was selfish. He served his Country at the age of 25. Now I grieve but hold on to the Blessed Hope that I will see my Jesus and my lovely son again.

The thing is that most of the time people who take their own life don’t think anyone cares about them. In that moment of deep depression they can’t see that it would hurt anyone because in their mind no one cares.

[leoniemoar]

The pain is extreme. I don’t think suicide is selfish. They can’t think of everyone else when they are in this pain. Sure everyone is affected terribly but this person’s pain is overwhelming

[sr-xveu]

To say to anyone who is watching and thinking of doing this and calling them selfish is disgusting. Have you even been in a situation where this is you in a other persons pain? Remember they must be going through something extremely terrible to want them to take their own life. Think of the fear or pain they must be going through to think this is the best solution they have. I have been in this situation. I sat on a bridge trying to push myself off crying my eyes out wanting my pain and suffering to end I couldn't do it so I was about to take an overdose.. my mistakes in life was hurting my family and kids in my family. Seeing the pain I had and would not go away I was at a point where I had no control over my own body or mind!! At this point I didn't believe in God at all but I cried out and asked for help I said if you really are true help me and show me you will help me. Show me proof you will help me and I said I will give you till tonight to show me. I walked to work and in my work desk there was the Bible I work with 3 people and they believed it was mine all the time they didn't see it before. So I seen I was helped I have no more pain or suffering my family do not to. .. But for people who don't get to cry out for help or lost the mind from pain and suffering. Do not call anyone who is in this unfortunate moment suffering enough that they want to take their life. If you find yourself in this way maybe you can understand why any soul would be broken enough to feel this is the only way to stop the suffering. I've learned as a Christian to love and help others not put them down.

God must know that, in this life, there are some things and only so much a feeble, imperfect human can go through before their mind utterly collapses, hence suicide.

[micha]

I think it's even more selfish to want a person to live through their pain (that you know nothing of) so that you don't have to grieve

[ValerieK]

When you are tormented in your mind. Even dreams. I don't think it's always selfish. When you fight year after year. For the people you love.

[danielroberger]

I think you forget people with serious mental sickness. Such as Schizofrenia and bipolar.

[beckweth]

Who knows, unless they have been to heaven or hell themselves. A friend of mine killed himself, I thought of him everyday. After ten years I went to see him in my dreams. Not a dream, but my spirit went to see him. He was a musician in life so it makes sense I saw him in a music class in some part of heaven.

I walked into an auditorium like the one in a high school. I walked down the aisle to the front and turned right and turned to face him, as if my spirit knew where to go. I looked at him and he looked at me but barely acknowledged me. His face looked like he had been drugged through hell all those ten years. Hard to explain what a face like that looks like. I knew then he was going to be alright. I think of him from time to time, but not the same as before I saw him. So, yes I believe there is redemption after death.

[mattdavis]

I wish I could give my life to someone that wants it.

[tracythomas]

I BELIEVE THAT ONCE YOU ARE SAVED YOU ARE ALWAYS SAVED!

suicide is NOT selfish. The depressed person may have suffered a traumatic life as a child, and may have tried to get professional help later in life, but maybe it did not really help the person. Suicide is depression, anxiety, trauma, suffering all mixed together and sometimes the sufferer has NO HOPE

[brillyintt]

I’m glad Andrew addressed suicide. It is good to hear His take. There is one thing I disagree with....that it is selfish...the person who is to that point is not capable of thinking and processing life the way Andrew doe when he concludes it is a selfish act. They cannot see anything outside of their own ugliness, pain, self hatred, failures etc...those things are become larger than life. Often they commit suicide because they believe they are no good to anyone or a burden to everyone. Still I agree it is sin Thank you

[CalledHigher-ibce]

What about schizophrenia, bipolar, etc.christian people who are dealing with that kind of illness?I used to be on SSRI drugs for severe deppresion, anxiety, and it made my symptoms go from 4 to 10.It actually doubled my issues.I became more suicidal and started hearing voices which I THOUGHT was Spirits. I knew this wasn't how God meant us to heal our brain and body.I was sick and tired of the situation. So i abruptly quit the drugs without the doctor's approval. After going through 9 months of withdrawals i felt better and my body started to heal.I also got spirtual help to heal my past trauma that was there in the first place .Looking back i will never forget the time i was on six different drugs at high dosages .I am thankful of the choice i made.

[gallagher]

Amen. Thanks so much for this message, Andrew.
