Questions and answers:

What does the Bible say about suicide?

First  - if you are struggling, please reach out.

You are loved by God and you are loved by the people around you.

Simply stated, if you are thinking of taking your own life – don’t.

God has so much in store for you, submit your life to him.

Every life is precious to Him,

Some people think that suicide is the “unforgiveable sin” but it is not.

It is no worse than other evils, in terms of how God sees it, and it does not determine a person's eternal destiny.

However, suicide definitely has a deep and lasting impact on those left behind.

The painful scars left by a suicide do not heal easily.

May God grant His grace to each one who is facing trials today, and may each of us take hope in the promise, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved”

Have a blessed day!
