John 10:17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. 10:18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. Jesus, according to this scripture 'laid down His life.' He did this willingly for others in the same way, although a different context, that a brave firefighter will often risk their life to save someone from a fire. Thus according to any normal definition of the term Jesus clearly did not commit suicide. Another way to see how clearly Jesus' death was not suicide is to compare it to the death of John the Baptist who hung himself. Jesus submitted to the will of those who hated Him and it was the Roman soldiers who carried out the execution. Many martyrs and other innocent people have also submitted in this way down through history. No-one considers them to have committed suicide as it was not self-administered.

Why did Jesus commit suicide?
Jesus didnt commit suicide he was killed because of those who didn't believe in him and through his religion and the people that followed him was starting to be to strong so then they forced him to death. Wrong....Jesus knew if he did what he did, he would be put to death not much unlike those who do the "cop by suicide" acts that we see today. So yes, he committed suicide for all mankind. He took the blame for all of us then did the deed. Ouch!.....makes you think, don't it? Years ago, when the bible was being written, people believed in animal and human sacrifice. Because the primitive people that wrote the bible believed in human sacrifice, they wrote the fable that their god sent his son to be violently tortured and sacrificed by commiting suicide. So their god brutally sacrificed his own son to himself by ordering his son, and making his own son commit sacrificial suicide.

What proof is there that I will go to hell if I am a suicide?
There is no proof in the bible anywhere. Whoever said that is not speaking the bible correctly and if they want to believe that than that is OK, but not the truth. if you asked Jesus into your heart than you are most likely not going to hell. but, that does not give you the right to do anything you want and repent later, because in that you could loose your faith. That does not give you the right to commit suicide, because suicide is a selfish thing to do. Just think about all of the grief that you will give your friends and family.
