Do you believe people who commit suicide go to Heaven?
A friend of mine killed himself 2 weeks ago. Do you think he's in heaven, or somewhere else?

From reading the bible it does mention that their would be 144,000 that would go to heaven..not everyone. i think your friend has a chance of being resurrected in the future. Right now though he is just sleeping in the grave. No pain, no thoughts just in a deep sleep. John 5:28,29

wow, don't do this to yourself. you don't need this forum to have peoples opinions on heaven and hell help screw up your grieving. honor your friends memory and know that he is not facing demons any longer. I do think suicide is a lousy way out and hurts everyone, but how could a supposed merciful god condemn someone to eternal damnation because they were to screwed up to carry on. If there is a god, he would have to understand mental illness and depression right?
Ya know what, screw all of you that are telling this kid her friend is damned. Not very christian at all, not too mention damn insensitive. I know she posted the question but it is just wrong to use someone elses grief to push your own "beliefs"
That's all they are, Beliefs, no proof, all theory based on a book written by man that has been the basis for countless wars and gross acts..

I can't believe in a God that has no compassion of a person who arrives at a point that doesn't remain other thing but the suicide! God is the Compassion and Mercy. I think the suicides are their sons like others, sons that need more of His Consolation.

I think they go to heaven.What if the person had a mental illness? Then they didn't have any control over what they were doing.I think if a person committed suicide to get back at someone or did it out of anger or revenge then they will probably reincarnate.(I believe in reincarnation)

i'm sorry for your loss.... that is really tough/sad. :(
i am christian, but i don't know. no matter what i have heard, about heaven and hell, i DO NOT KNOW 100% for sure. so please don't let anyone judge your friend, or condemn him for what he's done. i think the saddest thing is that no one was able to Help this person to not do it.
my pastor actually believes that Jesus died for all of us, and has forgiven us for past, present and future sins. and if someone was DRIVEN in THIS life to such unhappiness and sadness to commit suicide, i think that is what we need to mourn over, not whether or not he goes to Heaven or Hell. these are concepts, these are viewpoints, these are theories... no one knows for sure until we all die.
i think we all need to try hard to seek what is Good, Right, Positive, Healthy and Wise... and it will make us better people, and hopefully it will help us to reach out to others and help them. good luck~
