It is the gravest of all sins, what is known as Sin against the Holy Ghost and is flat-out rejection of God. She is saying that her suffering is greater than God’s love and mercy and we all know that is not true. To think she may find salvation if she kills herself is calling God a liar. She needs our prayers.

Veni, Creator Spiritus.

Well, if a healthy person just flat out wings it with no extenuating circumstances at all I would agree.

A person in severe, intractable, untreatable, unrelenting, intolerable pain I'm not so sure (palliative pain treatment doesn't always work). God has Mercy and Compassion.

This individual doesn't appear to be in much pain judging by her jetting around to complete the bucket list.

People contemplating suicide for any reason or for no reason do need our prayers, you are correct.

Thank you. I was waiting for someone to say it.

**To think she may find salvation if she kills herself is calling God a liar. She needs our prayers.**

Amen!

Your post #6.....where does the bible suggest this sin cannot be forgiven. Last time I checked Christ died for all sins.

What about the Christian who dies by refusing to deny Christ? could that be suicide in some cases? did he personally put himself in that position because he wanted to go home?

Does any one know what it means to want to go home?

It is the gravest of all sins,>>>>>>

1 Cor 6
18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

Not sure if I agree or disagree but I think we need to let God worry about this.

Suicide is not a sin against the Holy Ghost. And is not unforgivable. Saul committed suicide and is in heaven. (1st Samuel 28:19)

The bible calls one such unforgivabla sin “blaspheming the Holy Spirit.” In Matrhew 12:31ff, Mark 3:28ff, john8:48ff the Pharisees attribute the work of the Holy Spirit to a demon. One who commits this sin never has forgiveness.

Dying in ones sin without having believed on the Son of God means that person will pay for his sins in hell and ultimately the lake of fire (revelation 20:11ff.) That punishment is forever and ever.

Instead of helping an unbeliever end his life, a truly compassionate Christian will try to get that person saved by preaching the gospel.
