Christianity’s Perspectives On Suicide

You treat your body as a temple you've heard it said so if you committed suicide you would be dis-honoring God and the Holy Spirit by harming your own body?  


1 Corinthians 3:16-20

People often wonder if a person who dies from suicide can be saved and get to heaven, but the Bible does not give an answer. 

Most Christians believe what matters most to God is how a person lives his or her life rather than how he or she dies.

One of the most controversial elements of Christianity’s perspectives on suicide is whether or not a professing Christian can go to heaven if they take their own lives. 

The Bible does not say that someone who commits suicide cannot go to heaven. From a Biblical standpoint, there is only one “unpardonable” sin: “‘Truly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the children of man, and whatever blasphemies they utter, but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin’—for they were saying, ‘He has an unclean spirit’” (Mark 3:28-30). In context, Jesus makes this statement after the scribes accuse him of being able to exorcise demons because they thought He was demon-possessed. Blaspheming the Holy Spirit is denying the testimony of the Holy Spirit about who Jesus is by attributing God’s work to the devil.
