As an application, suicide may or may not be a sin, but cab anybody really show, Scripturally, that self harm is a sin?

From what I read, there isn’t much about when we self harm. Only others.

ALL of Scripture concerns YOU in terms of your LIFE. To not see anything in Scripture about self harm is a little like not seeing the forest on account of all those trees.

Yes, your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit.

Anyway, I had to navigate the church after the suicide of a loved one. Its a minefield.

Suicide definitely harms others.

Suicide is self-murder. “Thou shalt not murder” is in the 10 Commandments.
