can u enter heaven if you take your own life?

Question

can u really enter heaven if you take your own life.

Answer 1

God only knows..
but in my opinion, no you don't. because you did not even cherish the life that god gave you and waited for him to make everything better for you, you gave up in a moment of weakness and stopped believing that god will make everything better...

Answer 2

this is a touchy question. on the one hand it is a form of murder of which repentance has not been made - and sin does not enter heaven. on the other hand the state of the persons mind at such a time can be such that they really are not in control of their mental faculties or decisions to be in that state to start with - so God would not hold that against them. Accountabliity stops with mental derangement. In other words - God does not hold an "insane" person accountable. However, I believe each case is different because not everybody is "insane" at that point and we don't know where exactly on that continuum they fall - only God knows that. When I was suicidal with the gun ****** and at my head, I would have gone straight to hell the moment I pulled the trigger. I knew this - God dealt with me strongly...telling me "don't do it, you know you go to hell if you do." It was a life and death struggle for over 2 hours - I wanted to SO Bad - but God kept talking to me....and I finally put the gun down. But there are others who are so far gone mentally that God can't deal with them and they are like in a state of almost "shock" where they don't know what they are doing. This is one area that I leave in God's hands - only God knows for sure. But this I have learned through experience - those left behind by a loved one that took their own life never really get over the anger, hurt and pain of it. Don't do that for your loved ones sake if not your own.

First, I hope you are not considering this!

Second, most people do not understand the "Finished Work of Jesus Christ". John 19:30. All mankind was born under sin because of the sin of Adam. Christ came as the second Adam to free us from sin. 2 Cor. 5:19. When HE paid for the sins of all
mankind, past, present and future the sin of suicide was paid for.
The only sin that puts a person in hell is the rejection of WHO
CHRIST is? Do you believe that HE is GOD? That's it! 1 John 5:1 a.
Now, many Christians have committed the sin of taking their
own life, through mental problems etc. God, wants us to live a
full life but if they are Christian they go to heaven. BUT this is a huge BUT, they lose all rewards that the LORD had for them. They will be happy and get a new resurrected body when HE returns for the "church".

Most folks don't understand it, it's all about CHRIST, and if you are searching, HE will reveal HIMSELF to you.

Answer 4

In general, a person taking their own life is not happy. The problem is with the interpretation of the meaning of heaven. Most people assume heaven means: "the abode of God, the angels, and the spirits of the righteous after death; the place or state of existence of the blessed after the mortal life." But heaven can also mean: "a place or state of supreme happiness." So, this is to say, if a person is not happy within their life, chances are, they will be unhappy after death. You may ask where the soul goes after death. My understanding is, it goes back to the aether (a substance formerly supposed to occupy all space, accounting for the propagation of electromagnetic radiation through space.)

Answer 5

If you know Jesus then nothing can keep you from going to be with him when you die--even suicide. However, there are consequences for every decision that you make on this earth. Even though God forgave you for all your sins, past, present and future when you established your relationship with Him through Jesus you will not have the rewards and the close relationship with Him that you could have had if you had not killed yourself. Suicide is not the unforgivable sin but you will suffer loss of relationship and rewards in heaven because of it.

Answer 6

And your soul, don´t want to leave it at the doorstep.
Some people will say or claim which is same death is a toil and must be faced with dignity, this is b.s. and we all know it, with suicide and euthanasia it is better said this was fast rather than equal to meaningfullness.
Some people are very eager to please and this comes along with humor, not just the old fashioned help, so intend the best for your attitude and sake the bastard with a broomstick and a candlelight to go with, so you remember? good already. Bottomclerks you all.
Pay no attention to good intended libra sun with an halo. That would be me.
Yes I am evolved, so sue me you know my name.

Answer 7

Those who enter heaven are chosen by God to do so after they
give up earthly prospects, they have a hope. Those who commit
suicide feel hopeless. That is why Jesus emphasized showing
love to our neighbors so that they would feel wanted and find
a hopeful reason to live.

Answer 8

Well if you are on top of a 50 story burning building with no escape and are about to be consumed with fire and you jump . Aren't you taking your own life ? I'm sure God can forgive that conscious choice to die , So why wouldn't he accept others . Besides I'm sure if someone kills himself , God is more saddened than angry because that is more in line with his character

Answer 9

,some cultures, such as Christianity, believe that suicide is a mortal sin that will banish your soul to hell for eternity. some religions from the far east believe that some forms of suicide will grant you a place in heaven. it depends on your culture and your beliefs as to how you interpret suicide. Personally I believe suicide is a cowards way out and should not be on option at any time.

Answer 10

no, you can not receive the kingdom of GOD if you take your own life because your trying to play GOD he put everyone here for a reason a purpose and he sets the time table of every life and every death and to take a life even yours is robbery because it isn't yours to take if your in Christ then you know weeping only endures the night but joy comes in the morning meaning that sadness, bad things only happen for a short period of time and soon your period of good things will come.

Answer 11

U R only permitted to take your own life in battle.
