i was looking for opinions if someone commits suciide it is believed that the person will go to hell, if someone kills another person it is a sin and they go to hell, but in war a person kills another person and is honored how does this work, if ur in the army or something and kill someone in battle thats a sin you should go to hell, but people dont see it that way, whats ur opinion is our believes screwed up, how is it fair for the rules too change just because we say so and we want them to even though were suppose to be following the rules of one man.

That's why there would be conscientious objectors

Somewhere along my quest for spiritual enlightenment, I came across this and it made sense to me. If nothing else, God always makes sense. When we cross over we have to review our life, along with the sensations of it. When we have deliberately caused another pain, we feel their pain. We also feel the pain that their pain caused others. Like a ripple in water, we feel all that pain. Now think of someone like Hitler. That’s a kind of pain I would not wish on anyone. However, it’s not just pain to punish, it is pain that teaches. Kinda like walking a mile in another’s shoes so to speak. I'm not sure where war or state execution or even suicide fits in with all this. I'm glad I don't have to figure it out, that's why we have a God who is the Alpha and Omega. The one God with many names, and many faces who knows how to handle these aspects of hell. After this we can choose to if we want to be reincarnated and return to the school we call earth. Here we work off our bad karma, and learn more quickly than while in spirit. I believe we all need to learn, and work off karma in order to work our way through the hierarchy in heaven.
Blessed Be

There is a difference between killing, and murder.
To kill someone for the sake of defending the innocent, as in war SHOULD be the case, then of course you are honored. Yes, you have taken one life, but you did so to prevent the destruction of many innocent lives.
To murder, then you are taking the life of another out of aggression and not justice.
I don't know how old you are, and please forgive me for saying this, but this is one of those questions, that only through maturity can you fully come to understand.

those are all very tragic issues and against the regulation against love. God would not desire all people to kill. some say that there is a only war, yet i do no longer think of God looks at it that way. i think of He understand that we are no longer the place we are meant to be, or the place we as a human race would be sooner or later. we've a protracted thank you to pass, to grow to be human beings of peace and love. Does God deliver human beings to hell? there's a hell, the church teaches that. It additionally teaches that human beings have a decision even after dying. Hell is a decision. A unfastened option to stay without God and without His regulation of love, invariably. Even Hitler, if he repented and adjusted, could pass to heaven. This says no longer something suitable to the sanctity of Hitler, yet each and every thing suitable to the forgiveness, mercy and love of God.

What if "hell" as some know it does not, in reality, exist and God has other plans for the dead, like giving them another chance to experience a relationship with Him, later, in the New world to come at the return of Jesus Christ to this earth ?

Frankly, the way i see it is that if these persons ( soldiers, police, criminals and all) do not repent, they will face an eternity of torment. God is no respecter of persons. What He says for one goes for all so lets not forget that.
Every life is precious to God, even a wasted one. Therefore it is wrong for us to simply take one. When we go to war and kill others who are against us, we commit the horrible sin of distrusting God. It is in that situation loud and clear that we declare to the world that God is unable to deliver us so we have to do it ourselves.
God bless

First of all there is no teaching in the Bible that if you kill yourself you go to hell. That is mostly a Catholic teaching not Christian. In war you are functioning under the authority of your country's government and God has given goernment the authority to go to war to control evil and to kill in the cause of that war.

I think that a person goes to hell for not accepting the gift of salvation offered by God. He gave his son as a gift a grace to cover all past, present, and future sin. I don't believe that one goes to hell for committing suicide if they have been saved by the grace of God. I don't believe that a person goes to hell for killing in war if it is self defense. Sin is sin. Adultery, murder, stealing, lying, etc.

Hell is only for those who reject Christ. It has nothing to do with our actions. If you have a relationship with Jesus you will not go to Hell. You will however be judged for your actions and will face consequences based upon them.
