is there is life after death? is it sinful to commit suicide?

Question

i think nobody care about me

Answer 1

They say life is like a journey, you are born, get old, die (of old age, NOT suicide). Maybe life is like going away to school, you must experience and learn things, and then return home (to heaven hopefully). Maybe life is a dream, and your dream is reality (see the movie Jacobs Ladder). Right now, try and determine your life's purpose (mission) and then try to fullfill it. As long as you have life, use the time as wisely as you can determine. I am just a mortal like you, so I don't know for sure either exactly what is going on in the big picture. All men/women are brothers/sisters. Worry less what other people think or care and concern yourself about your own thinking. Think positive about what you can do to be a positive influence in the world regardless of all the crap that is out there to confront.

Answer 2

This is a tough question to answer in a short message. There is life after death, but it is contingent on how God views you, according to the scriptures. (I teach a Bible study course.) But yes, deliberately taking one's own life is a serious sin. There can be extenuating circumstances, and God is able to see what a person is thinking and is going on in their lives. But still. Just don't do it.

Rather than just ask this question here, pick up the phone and call your suicide hotline. Do it as soon as possible. If one is not available in your area, talk to SOMEONE. Believe me, someone, probably many someones, does care about you.

My brother-in-law committed suicide fifteen years ago. He thought no one cared about him either. Believe me, the family was completely messed up over his death for a great many years. They still miss him terribly.

A neighbor I had counseled only briefly stopped it, moved away and committed suicide maybe two years later, and we are all still affected. Another neighbor's sister attempted suicide while she was visiting her sister and brother-in-law. She had severe health problems that would eventually immobilize her. Believe me. People care.

Life is precious. In a while, you may wonder why you ever felt the way you do now.

Right now, please realize that you are not thinking clearly. You may think you are, but you aren't. I have no idea how old you are, but you need to talk to someone you trust. It's important to get some sort of medical help, too. Possibly you are experiencing a physical problem that is causing the thoughts. I think my brother-in-law was overwhelmed with candida yeast, due to his beer-drinking and poor diet. He'd had a characteristic odor about him. Yeast overgrowth causes depression, and depression encourages yeast growth because the immune system works less well when one is depressed. (Unfortunately it seems like only alternative practitioners tend to understand treating yeast well.) It's very likely you need an antidepressant, but certain supplements can also fix some depression. See a doctor or medical practioner of some sort. Counseling is a very good option. Talk to someone now. Do it, please. If you can't make yourself go through the motions of finding a doctor or practitioner, ask someone to help. Believe me, they will.

Someone above said that you are complete and need no one else. The scriptures contradict that idea. It is recorded: "It is not good for the man to continue by himself"--Genesis 2:18. Isolation is bad for us. (Proverbs 18:1) We need each other. That's why it hurts so much when we feel alone. But always know that no matter how alone we feel, God cares about us. The Apostle Paul said that "[God] is not far from each one of us." He went on to explain that we can "grope for him and really find him".--Acts 17:27. God knows how we feel, even down to feelings that we ourselves don't even know we have and can't find the words to express. (Romans 8:26) He will always listen to you if you ask him. Talk to him. Don't expect miracles now, but know that he has promised to repair all the things wrong with this system. He promises to wipe out every tear from our eyes, and mourning and outcry and pain won't be any more--Revelation 21:3-4. All that will be a distant memory, and later, perhaps not even that.

When you are feeling a little better, try to find a way to help others. Volunteer somewhere. Visit older people, or help at a pet shelter or do something that helps others and you will feel needed and appreciated. Importantly, you will feel happier yourself. I guarantee it.

Answer 3

Hi there,

Yes there is life after this world. It is a massive sin to take life as you know, but that also includes your own life. Listen, things aren't always as bad as they seem. I know you must be feeling pretty low right now but look at all the people here that have answered you question. We are all answering because we care.

Life isn't always good or fair but it does have a way of evening things out. If you're having a really bad time lately then things can only get better for you. Don't make any harsh decisions now it's not fair on you or the people you'll leave behind. Believe it or not somebody out there loves you very much. Don't leave them behind. There is plenty of time to check out the after life.

Maybe you need to change a few things in your life? I don't know you so I can't really suggest any thing to change. You know what would make you happy, any way of doing that??

Chin up, I promise things will get better & you will delighted you didn't make that decision.

Answer 4

I guess nobody really knows about life after death and yes in the Catholic Church I know its sinful t commit suicide but I dont know about other religions.
Trust me hun- we all feel like we're alone in the world at some stage or another - you just gotta pick yourself up and get yourself out of this frame of mind - trust me people care about you - you need to think about how upset they'd be if you took your own life!! Dont do it!! xx

Answer 5

I care about you. Please don't even consider taking your life, it is so precious but right now for whatever reasons you can't see this. Who knows if there is life after death? I guess we all hope so, usually because we all enjoy this life and don't want to think death is the END. We hope for more, I personally think I will never be happier than I am with my lot in life and can't imagine an after life where I will be happier if my family / friends aren't there as well. Everybody who is religious tells me that God is good and he will make me happy, says who???? how do they KNOW??? I would much rather enjoy my life here and now, if there is a God I am sure this is what he would want from me, you may think your life is bad now but you can turn it around, if you kill yourself what then?? six foot underground is no fun at all, once there it's too late. I am going to get reported now but I really don't mind if it helps you, please feel free to e-mail me and I promise to keep in contact with you, I will try to show you that people do care even if we don't know each other.

Answer 6

Hey mate, I'm sure plenty of people care about you....
Yes I believe in life after death but I think if you take your own life the problems you have in this life go with you....

I don't think suicide is the answer whatever your problems are....I'm sure everybody has thought about suicide at one time or another even for a split second.......there is always a better answer.

Try talking to your GP or a friend / family member.....of call the Samaritans...

Please do not take your own life.........it's too precious

Answer 7

Yes there is life after death, All the books revealed from God say that. All holy people say that.

Dont commit suicide. You think nobody care for you ? But sweetheart, you care for yourself. That is enough, why do you need nobody, you are complete in yourself. You know what you like to eat, you know what gives you pleasure, you know what is good for you. SO YOU ARE COMPLETE

Answer 8

Yes there us life after death. It is sinful to commit suicide because it's like telling God that He has no control over when you come home to Him.

Answer 9

It might not be sinful but it is very selfish!
All people have effects on others. Even if one does not realize it!
School, the coffee house, family, friends, neighbors, work, everyone is affected when someone dies. Even the family pet is affected.
One just has to quit feeling sorry for themselves and look around, open ones eyes.
Have you ever thought you are depressed? Go to the doctor, tell him/her how you feel.
Talking like this on the computer can not help......In ways the peeps that are around you might be the ones I am angry with. If they have not expressed there feelings they should be ashamed of themselves!
People care.....

Answer 10

well no one can prove that there is a life after death so it is all about your beliefs and only some religions believe commiting suicide is sinful! but if you are about to kill yourself i don't think that would really matter to you
