I mean for example when someone is backed into a corner and there's too much pain and no way out. There must be some allowance for situations like that.

“No way out”?

There is always a way out. Usually straight ahead.

Don’t do anything that will hurt your loved ones. You are needed. Pain is transient. I passed a kidney stone last night. Things get better, keep fighting.

Suicide is a sin. A big one.
(I think it's above being a homo)

However, if you have a terminal disease and don't want to deal with months/years of "treatment", go to CO. They will put you down.
That decision is yours, and only yours.

Just my 2 cents..
Link Posted: 8/26/2023 8:47:53 PM EDT
[#22]
I've been close to making the wrong decision before. The thing that stopped me was a minute little detail. I think God put that thought in my head and I'm thankful for that.

OP no one on this side can can answer your question.

God forgives if you ask Him. And God sent His Son to die on the Cross for your sin, sickness and pain.
Put your Faith in Jesus and His Blood shed for your problem.

I’m in pain everyday.  Emotionally, mentally, physically sometimes, and yet I’m still here…somehow. How I don’t know.  I feel like I’m trapped in a job I hate. Stuck in an 260 sq foot “studio” I can’t stand. In a city that sucks. I’m still here.  Take that as you will.  If I didn’t have my dog and cats I don’t know where I’d be. I’m assuming you have friends and family?  I’m solo in this world except for online people.
Just had a stent put in my heart last month. Number 4 plus a bypass in 2014, and I have absolutely NO RISK factors for heart disease. Life plays dirty tricks on people.

Unless I missed it while I was typing you haven’t mentioned what your post is about.  Regarding you, someone you know?

There is no Biblical precedent for suicide being unforgiveable by GOD, it is a manmade idea.  GOD knows everything about you and HE also loves you.   As long as you believe in HIM and that Jesus Christ is HIS son....you can be forgiven.   That being said, all suicide does is pass your pain onto other people.  Ask for help

Most folks go along with all the "God loves" scripture and bypass the wrath.

That being said, OP if you are right God there is nothing you're dealing with that can't be overcome with the grace of God.


Pray. Dive into scripture. I will pray for you.

God doesn't hold anything against you.

Try the silent prayer.
Silent Prayer (Church Clip, April 11, 2021)


Through this man, God has sent me down the narrow path towards the light.

I've never heard anyone "of the cloth" say anything remotely close to what he preaches. Once you see, your life will change.

Only if that someone put their faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ BEFORE they acted.  They would have to confess that they are a sinner, and they must believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died on the cross for their sins according to the scriptures, and that He was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures.


That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth, and believe in thine heart thou shalt be saved.


1 Peter 5:7
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Add me to the people you can DM if need be.

I've been in some horrible places mentally. If I can be pulled out by God's grace, anyone can.

Heck, read the Old Testament. Those people were wacked! He whole thing looks like it took place in a West Virginia trailer park and those were God's chosen people.

There's hope. Trust me.

I don’t know if God forgives or not, but pain in it’s many forms can take you out of your right mind. Try to find someone who is or has walked in your shoes and try to talk thru it.
