From the Frying Pan into the Fire

Suicide is the killing of oneself (1 Samuel 31:4; Matthew 27:5). It is self murder, and the Bible teaches for man not to sin by murdering (Matt. 5:21; Romans 13:9). With the act of suicide, one will have no chance in this life to make amends because he will be dead. Once dead, all hope is lost, and there is nothing that can be done to change that person’s fate (Ecclesiastes 9:5; John 8:21).

Suicide is going from the frying pan into the fire. The Devil deceives men into thinking that they can escape their earthly problems by killing themselves. But this great deception tosses men into eternity with a bigger problem than the one they fled from on earth. They will be judged by God for the act of self murder and will stand condemned (Hebrews 9:27). Don’t kill yourself—stand and face the problems—don’t take the cowardly way out because the horror of eternity will be waiting, and it won’t be good (Isaiah 48:22; Amos 5:19-20; Luke 16:25-28).
