there's no sin. Sin is a thought to regulate and rule over others. on your quest to locate God, Brahman, Peace, there's a presupposition which you're lacking some thing, that God is lacking and must be discovered. Many attempt to merge in God. whilst this could look as though a suited mindset to take, and there is honestly not something incorrect with it, this is a prepare that retains you finding. some, after being in this direction honestly come to the theory that what they’ve been searching for has been there all alongside, and it is what seems to be the merging. What’s honestly happening is the dropping of the phantasm of separation. to pass on the path of searching for and finding is like attempting to shove a sq. wood peg right into a around hollow, not understanding that that the two the peg and the hollow are shaped from the comparable wood, and which you are the wood, the two the peg and the completed. there's no separation everywhere, it’s purely a clever visual appeal. while it is considered for sure that there at the instant are not any separate human beings, no persons everywhere, that the mild of God shines, giving all visual appeal it’s life, then the hunt is considered as in no way having been mandatory, and in no way rather took beginning factor with. God is organic skill floating in no area or time.

Having a dangerous job isn't suicide. Everyone has a job and jobs can be dangerous. It is like saying if you drive a car then you are committing suicide. Accidents happen. Smoking and drinking are just stupid. Not everyone that smokes and drinks is going to die from those. I could sit out on my porch and get bitten by some bug and die. Did I commit suicide because I went outside? No. It was an accident.

You have a good point, but the things you mentioned are pleasureable and you can stop doing those things if you chose to do so. Suicide is permanent solution to a temporary situation. You are choosing to die immediately. When you are dead, there is no coming back and saying I didn't mean to do it. I don't know if God sends all that committ suicide to hell, depression can literally control your mind and body. And the majority of people who committ suicide can't seem to overcome the demons that taunt them everyday. Let's leave that up to God, He is a loving God and everyone that lived, is living, will live, will be judged by Him.

The body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, so we should smoke or drink. We should endanger the lives of others either. Some times God would you out the world but he will take the world out of you. So lets say you kill some one on your crazy drive, where would you be, jail, or in conscious hell. God gives life and only he has the right to take it! Only he knows how he'll do it.

No there is no such thing as mortal sins.
That is false doctrine.
The Bible teaches that from the moment a person truly believes in Christ, he or she is eternally secure (John 3:16). According to the Bible, Christians can know beyond any doubt that they possess eternal life no matter what happens. “These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God” (1 John 5:13). Nothing can separate a Christian from God’s love! “For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:38-39). If no “created thing” can separate a Christian from God’s love, and even a Christian who commits suicide is a “created thing,” then not even suicide can separate him from God’s love. Jesus died for all of our sins...and if a true Christian were to, in a time of spiritual attack and weakness, commit suicide - that would be a sin that Jesus died for.
This is not to say that suicide is not a serious sin against God. According to the Bible, suicide is murder, it is always wrong. I would have serious doubts about the genuineness of faith of anyone who claimed to be a Christian yet committed suicide. There is no circumstance that can justify someone, especially a Christian, taking his or her own life. Christians are called to live their lives for God – the decision on when to die is God’s and God’s alone. Perhaps a good way to illustrate suicide for a Christian would be from the Book of Esther. In Persia, they had a law that anyone who came before the king uninvited could be put to death unless the king extended his scepter towards the person - indicating mercy. Suicide for a Christian would be forcing your way in to see the King instead of waiting for Him to summon you. He will point His scepter towards you, sparing your eternal life, but that does not mean He is happy with you. Although it is not describing suicide, the Bible verse 1 Corinthians 3:15 is probably a good description of what happens to a Christian who commits suicide: “He himself will be saved, but only as one escaping through the flames.”

Exactly just like if you sign up to get into the military and you know you might get sent overseas to get shot at and bombed and stuff...you actually know this might happen.
Dont forget that this sin thing is only in the bible and the q'uran and other religions believe you come back.

I've heard suicides go to hell all my life, but I've read the bible, and I've never seen it. Maybe its just one of those added things the catholic church put in? Personally, I don't believe it, not that it's okay to kill yourself, but I don't believe its a go straight to hell card either. He will judge us by our hearts, not man-made doctrine.

killing yourself is mortal sin in Islam but working in dangerous job is not cuz you don't intend to kill your job ,its only possibility that you could lose your life cuz of this job
suicide happens when some on kill himself on purpose ,so he will be sure of his death ,there is not chance for being alive after that

If it is and the Jesus myth is true, he is in hell.
BTW, smoking tobacco, driving drunk or working in a hazardous occupation is not considered to be intentionally fatal activities, or "suicide."
Driving to church could be considered suicidal if we use that standard, given the well known risks associated with driving on public roadways.

No - you need to read your Bible alittle bit more - if you are right with GOD and you decide to kill yourself then as long as you have asked to have your sins forgiven then you will still go to HEaven!@
