SUICIDE 2: NO GUARANTEES APART FROM CHRIST
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Suicide
a) We have heard of Christians who have committed suicide. Some at the funeral said that they are now in hell…others believed that once a person is saved they will be in heaven no matter what they do here on earth. If a believer commits suicide, can they be saved? Is killing yourself the unpardonable sin? Does a believer go to hell if the end their own life?
2. No Guarantees Apart from Christ
a) A man that died could never have any hope of going to heaven. When a person dies without Christ, they can not choose to accept to believe in Him then. It is too late. Those who think that they might commit suicide take a great risk; that is a risk of spending eternity apart from God.
b) If a person is not saved they will have to give an account for everything that they have ever done or said in their entire life (Revelation 20). They will stand guilty and be judged for eternity by God Almighty. Jesus can not help them then. If they commit suicide, they will also have to pay the penalty for murder; that is murdering their own selves. That will be a burden and everyone’s suffering in eternal torment is according to what they have done while alive on earth. After a person dies without Christ they know that they are going to be separated from God for all eternity; they will know this a split second after they die. Then of course, it is too late to repent and be saved.
The End ...
