If I have accepted Jesus as my personal savior, and I have been born again, would I be able to kill myself ?

If I do kill myself, have I really accepted Jesus ?

Are you saying that suicide is proof that regeneration has not occurred? What about adultery? Drunkeness? Lying? Stealing?

That is the right answer to this question. Skeptics like to use the suicide paradox as one of their “proofs” that if God is real, then He is not love. They just don’t understand the question.

Now, the hard part is what do you tell the family of a suicide who want to believe that their loved one is in heaven anyway.

I have accepted Christ as my Savior also, but sadly, I continue to sin. Does that sin mean that I didn’t really accept Christ? I think not. Has anyone led a sinless life even after salvation? I say no, except perhaps the person who is struck by lightning immediately after his prayer of salvation.

At some point, however, it is fair to question whether one really accepted Christ if sin continues unabated. When that is is far above my pay grade.

The best we can do is the best we can do, asking God for grace to overcome sin.
