> So, what do you all think is the punishment for taking your own life? Because God is a just God, I can't believe that we can destroy the gift He has given us without some sort of repercussions. I still don't think we would lose our relationship with our Father, but maybe I'm horribly wrong.

Maybe I would live on the outskirts of town instead of with everyone else!! *laugh* Seriously, though, I think that maybe the result of killing one's own body is a lose of certain privledges??

You asked,[...any ideas on this?...].
Let me start by saying what I see is important in this discussion.
A. What happens to you if you commit suicide
B. What happens to others that have already committed suicide
C. What does christiandom say about this in terms of its bible and their interpretations of what they say about suicide since you have written that,[...I believe the bible...].
D. What has been revealed to me about suicide.
