If your mentally ill, will god forgive suicide?

Honestly, we don't know. Maybe.If your mentally ill, will god forgive suicide?
While suicide cannot be justified, it is comforting to remember that the future prospects of our loved ones rest with a God who fully understands that weaknesses and frailties could push one to such desperate action. The Bible says of Jehovah God





Psalm 103:11-14“As the heavens are higher than the earth, his loving-kindness is superior toward those fearing him. As far off as the sunrise is from the sunset, so far off from us he has put our transgressions. As a father shows mercy to his sons, Jehovah has shown mercy to those fearing him. For he himself well knows the formation of us, remembering that we are dust.”.





As far as the one who took his own life is concerned, we humans cannot judge as to whether he will get a resurrection or not. How reprehensible was he? God alone searches ‘all hearts and every inclination of the thoughts.’





1 Chronicles 28:9 says “And you, Sol′o·mon my son, know the God of your father and serve him with a complete heart and with a delightful soul; for all hearts Jehovah is searching, and every inclination of the thoughts he is discerning. If you search for him, he will let himself be found by you; but if you leave him, he will cast you off forever





But we may be confident that ‘the Judge of all the earth is going to do what is loving, just, and right!’





Genesis 18:25 says ';It is unthinkable of you that you are acting in this manner to put to death the righteous man with the wicked one so that it has to occur with the righteous man as it does with the wicked! It is unthinkable of you. Is the Judge of all the earth not going to do what is right';





Hope this answers your questionIf your mentally ill, will god forgive suicide?
Well it depends. Well usually mentally ill people can still think straight and believe what they want to believe but they physically cant do much things. I think they can still pray and read the Bible. They arent really that stupid i think i bet he could forgive them
