......” Does, ‘once saved, always saved’, mean, well..., EXCEPTING SUICIDE?”.......

No....Because ...”Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. I have written these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may ‘KNOW’ that you have eternal life.”...1 John 5:12,13

The security of the believer in Christ Jesus is a ‘sealed’ deal. In biblical times, a seal was ‘a guarantee’..for...

....”In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were ‘sealed’ with the promised Holy Spirit, who is ‘the guarantee’ of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:13-14

The seal of the Holy Spirit takes place at the point of salvation. It is a promise or guarantee of the Christian’s future, eternal inheritance with Jesus Christ...In a very real sense, God’s Spirit protects us and guarantees our eternity with the Lord.
