If A Mentally Ill Person Commits Suicide, Will He Still Go To Heaven? by intrepidJ: 6:26am On May 03, 2018 |
Curious to know, if people suffering from mental illness like depression and schizotypal personality disorder or bipola take their own life under the unbeatable mental strain, will such person make it to heaven? |

intrepidJ:I believe so, mental illness will greatly reduce his culpability for the suicide if not totally remove culpability. God is merciful, it is his nature to have compassion... |

MusicSots: He knows what he is saying , it is you that did not get his message. A sane man cannot commit suicide. He can die out of ignorance of by mistake. If in his saner moment he decided to kill himself , he cannot go to heaven , but as long as he is insane , his judgement would be based on what he did b4 he became insane. 2 Likes |

The judgment is based on when u have ur mind in place, healthy. Not when u lost it. So God will judge them in their state before the madness. A mad person "cannot commit suicide" because a suicide is a deliberate act of someone using his free will, in his right mind to kill himself. So a mad person can kill himself but it s not a suicide. |

depression or any other mental illness are terrible and sometimes worse than the bodily illnesses we see daily. Mighty Prophet Elijah was depressed and on the edge of suicide until God rescued him (1Kings 19:4-19). I also believe that sometimes these illnesses are as a result of demonic oppression (Mark 5:2-5) and in that case if suicide happens (Mark 5:13), then if the person was born again, he should make it to heaven. But as for suicides like King Saul's own and his armour bearer, they should be heading to hell. |

There’s an account in the gospels of a man who was possessed and did hurt himself. Jesus Christ healed him. The way the account is made, he is a victim of the demons even if he did hurt himself. I look at suicide as the extreme of hurting yourself. So I’d say if suicide was sin,the victim would not be held accountable for their actions. Here’s the account; Mark 5:2-13 (KJV) And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, 3 Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: 4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. 5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. 6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, 7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. 8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. 9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many. 10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country. 11 Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding. 12 And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. 13 And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand and were choked in the sea. |

enilove: Someone suffering from serious depression(which is a mental illness) can take his/her. So, saying those who commit suicide are in their right senses is not always true. 1 Like |

OP, If a person, regardless of their mental capacity or status or condition in this world, is truly saved/justified by the operation of God, the King of Heaven/all (John 1:13, Romans 10:17)... they will make it to Heaven! ---- "And they were greatly astonished, saying among themselves, “Who then can be saved?” But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.” - Mark 10:26-28 |

intrepidJ:To end up in Hell(Eternal Damnation) one must be born-again — born of Water AND born of Spirit. It is only after that the person is eternally bound to the Kingdom of God where Heaven(Eternal Reward) and Hell(Eternal Damnation) are both found. A person who is not born-again cannot end up in Hell(Eternal Damnation) because he or she does not first possess the eternal life necessary for such an end. |

Re: If A Mentally Ill Person Commits Suicide, Will He Still Go To Heaven? by Kobojunkie: 4:55pm On Feb 29 |
Ubenedictus:And you believe this nonsense because you know better than Jesus Christ in this right?. Jesus Christ said except a man be born-again he can't enter into the kingdom of God. Also, He went on to say that those who stand faithful until the end will be saved-- Matthew 24 vs 12 - 13 and Mark 13 vs 13 - implying that those who do not will have their end in eternal damnation(Hell) instead. So why pretend you believe in Jesus Christ when clearly you will have no part in His teachings and commandments? |
