If you have made the decision to follow Christ as your Savior... not just 'believe' (even the demons of hell believe He is the Messiah!)... but truly turn your life towards Christ accepting His gift of salvation that is free for the asking and accepting... you are then born again... once you have done that, you are saved, according to the Word, (the bible) ...
since we are all born sinners... we backslide and often fail in our daily walk with God... but God's mercy is new each day and we can strive to be more like Christ.
If you sin after accepting Christ, you will not rot in hell when you die... whether you have committed suicide or lied to a teacher... God knows the motives of each move you make. If you repent when you mess up... and try to not do it again, no matter what the sin... you are still a Child of God.
You do not need to 'ask God' only once... and try to remember for years and years... you can have a relationship with the Lord and ask Him things all the time... many of the answers you need you will find in the Bible

As a Christian - you are not allowed to take a life of another or your own - that is a sin. Even if you believe you will still have to take responsibility and stand before God and explain your sins. Only he will decide if you go to hell or not, if he will forgive you or not. I was raised to believe that if you take a life, a precious life that God created - even your own, you are committing a sin against God and that will be severely punished.
You don't have to wait to ask God questions - you can ask him now - maybe He won't answer all of them - and maybe you will forget the questions, but by the time you stand in front of God - He will still remember all your questions. He will never forget.
Don't take the one thing he gave you that means more to him than anything (Your Life) rather do with it what he wants you to.
Enjoy your life, live, love, feel, grow, learn - When your old with grand children ask yourself this question again, I bet you, you will see things differently

The answers to all the questions you need to know are written in the Bible. You can spend the next 70 years studying the Bible and getting those answers. Good luck
If a Christian and commits suicide they still go to heaven. Suicide is just a sand like any other, it is forgiven because of the blood of Jesus Christ. He

Just pray to him. He will answer. If you don't have the answer directly, he will put someone in your path to provide the answer.
And if all else fails, if the questions are that important, you will remember 70 years from now.
Many christians hold that suicides do not get into heaven.

Write them down, and put them in a safe place. It will be a good memento for you to look back on in 70 years. And I'm sure, by then, you'll have plenty more! But, in the meantime, if you TRULY believe in God, ask NOW....he hears everything.

Not anymore.
Jesus died for ALL our sins, so sin is no longer an option as a determent for getting into heaven. You can be a mass murderer and still get into heaven.
Jesus specifically stated that there is only ONE way to get into heaven - you have to LOVE EVERYBODY UNCONDITIONALLY.
Well, since I only know a few gay people that do so, I think the majority of humanity is going straight to hell, and heaven only has maybe a few hundred gay people in it...

Nowhere in the Bible does it say you would go to hell if you commit sucide.
The only sin that gets you in hell is the sin of unbelief....and if you didn't believe in God or rejected Him--why would you want to spend eternity with Him anyway?

I'm not sure exactly what your asking but.... ( me being Catholic) I believe that you should ask a religious leader in your area these questions.... like the Reverend in your church... or you should just pray and God will send you an answer

Write it down if you don't think you will remember it.
Remember, most of what we know of ancient history is because someone bothered to write it down :)

I'm thinking the Bible says you do go to hell.
Suicide is selfish.
I want to say it says that if you lose your life for this world, you LOSE your life-
but if you lose your life for Christ, then you GAIN your life.
