Do people who commit suicide go to hell?

[AndOne]

Hell is not a literal place. In most places in the bible hell is translated from a word that means grave. In that sense yes they go to hell.

Incorrect!

Amen and Amen, all of us die sinners, and no sin is greater than any other (save for blasphemy of the Holy Spirit (whatever that seems to be), so he had no more reason to go to hell than do I--and I"m SURE I'm not going there!
God Bless

James 1:4
But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

1 Peter 5:10
But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you
KJV

Heb 7:19
For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.

Col 4:12
that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.

Gal 3:3-6
3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
4 Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.
5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.

So brother...shall we enter unto the Kingdom with sin still in our our hearts? God forbid.....

And blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is ignoring the warning of repeated sin that you insist on doing regardless of what the Spirit is telling you; so you grieve Him away.

The problem here is that the word commonly translated as "murder" is ratsach and we don't see this word or the negative language associated with it associated with killing as a part of warfare, capital punishment or self defense.

The other problem is that legally speaking, those who commit suicide or try to commit suicide are not in their right minds. The Bible tells us that God takes into account someone's ability to comprehend Him so why would it be any different for someone who is unable to grasp the moral ramifications of their actions? After all, sin is rebellion and rebellion has to involve a volitional decision to rebel.

What scripture tells us to take into account someones ability to comprehend Him? Scripture plainly states that all who seek Him with all their heart and mind will find Him...that's a promise that cannot be broken.


Isa 12:2-3
2 Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.
3 Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.


Isa 51:12-13
12 I, even I, am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die, and of the son of man which shall be made as grass;
13 And forgettest the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?

2 Cor 7:10
For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
