If you commit suicide by jumping off a building & repent before you land, do you go to Heaven?

Question

I know suicide is a big no-no, but the sinful act is really the jumping, not the landing, right? So if you repent and ask for forgiveness before you splatter, the All-Knowing and All-Merciful Creator must grant your Salvation. Once you've repented and accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you probably won't have time to commit any more sins. So you'd be Born Again right before you died, and would therefore go to Heaven.

Why don't more people do this?

Answer 1

You don't land as hard.

Answer 2

Hats of to u,wt imagination,wt creativity...bt Its amusing.......c dear y do u want 2 keep sinning till u die?yes their r instances of people accepting our Lord on their death beds,N since our God is a merciful God,He forgives n accepts them....U Know once U accept Lord Jesus ,ur life changes n life seems 2 b so beautiful..n yes their will b temptaions n tribulations in the path,Bt God will help us out,coz V r more than conquerors through him...so u c just accepting Lord Jesus before U die , doesnt give U any chance 2 live 4 Him....its such a beautiful experience,who would want 2 miss it...N God has plans 4 all of us, N our life will end as He wants a cc to His beautiful plan which He has 4 us. wt if u decide 2 jump n when u land u r not actlly dead n u r taken 2 hospital n doctors revive U, N mind U may have 2 pay for the stupid action of urs in ways unimagineable,like a handicap,finanacial strain,emotional toll on ur family,rember their r people around who love n if u decide on such a thing,they will b broken n start asking emselve whr did v go wrong etc?
so live a life which reflects Lord Jesus, N b Bold enough 2 face life instead of thinking of ending it...God bless

Real happiness and peace can be ONLY found in submitting to the commands of the Creator and the Sustainer of this world. God has said in the Qur’an: (Truly, in remembering God do hearts find rest.)
(Qur’an, 13:28)

On the other hand, the one who turns away from the Qur’an will have a life of hardship in this world. God has said:
(But whoever turns away from the Qur’an, he will have a hard life, and We will raise him up blind on the Day of Judgment.) (Qur’an, 20:124)
This may explain why some people commit suicide while they enjoy the material comfort money can buy. For example, look at Cat Stevens (now Yusuf Islam), formerly a famous pop singer who used to earn sometimes more than $150,000 a night. After he converted to Islam, he found true happiness and peace, which he had not found in material success.

Answer 4

yes you are right you might go to heaven ,but only if you are a christian,and only if you jump from an airplane

because if you repent during the jump it may be over to quick to recieve the soul saving reply .
and burning you´ll be for all of eternity maybe even more

but there are other cultures where suicide is Honorable and you can go to paradise just because you commit suicide,changing religion may be the easier route to take

Answer 5

This a question of perspective. The entire view of Heaven/Hell is warped. For a believer, you can't possibly think that if you've lived an entire life of sin--murdering, plundering and raping--that you're gonna get away with it with a mere second of repentance! The whole point of Judgement is lost! For a pagan, the issue is non-existent!

Answer 6

That sounds like a very convoluted and painful way to try and get into Heaven. Something tells me there are easier ways. Why not just accept Jesus first and forget the jumping off a building part.

Answer 7

You're missing an *extremely* important point--in order to "commit" suicide, you must die. Period. Prior to that, it is attempt of suicide, for which there can be forgiveness. However, suicide, commiting suicide, is an act that does not allow for the person committing it to repent.

Answer 8

do you know what repent means ? it doesnt mean just to say sorry.

yes technically if you had a relevation, that Jesus Christ is Lord and you trust that He died for you and He was raised from the dead, while you were in mid air and turn from your sin, you would go to heaven.

why dont i just kill myself and go to heaven ? i have work to do.

Answer 9

Yes

Answer 10
