OK …… Once again I challenge you to point out the Scriptures where God forbids a person from killing one’ own self, specifically, and to THAT specific point. 

Since we do have at least two specific examples, perhaps an exposition of SPECIFIC SCRIPTURES using the examples of 1.) Judge Sampson, and 2.) King Saul, both who committed Suicide …. Er …. Killed themselves. 

You could list them as:
1.) Judge Sampson = ___________________________
 
2.) King Saul = ___________________________
Or, you could continue to try and hypnotize with many words, which more often than not, unfortunately, does work.

Only because you would need to understand scripture, James. Nowhere in scripture does it "specifically" use the word suicide. I know you're not a psychologist, but, in God's laws, harming yourself for whatever reason is a sin. Now, how can you "prove" that suicide is NOT a sin, James?
Yet, wordplay is always a stronghold for the unattended. 

Does this mean we will no longer be hearing from Moise? I was just getting to like the guy.

The is no record in the Bible that there is any punishment whatsoever for suicide, and many people go on “Suicide Missions” , knowing for a certainty that they are going to die, in duty to some perceived concept of the “greater good”.
Often we as bystanders view this a an honorable thing of courage and a sound mind, as well as a lamentable tragedy.
Jesus, of course, was the perfect example.

Hmmmmm….. Perhaps he will expound on that.
 
 

Okay, okay. Musk didn’t buy it.
Did you buy it?
Or did the old hen fall off the wagon once again and you’re blackmailing her?

My understanding of Jehovah is that he is very understanding of our circumstances and hardships, an that is why He nowhere in the Bible prohibits or speaks against  suicide.
Those who believe otherwise are just playing with a lot of words that apply to other things, but not this.

It used to be even more common in the Truth  and in the general population in the 60’s before it became universal to put up guardrails before the approaches to bridge underpasses to deflect vehicles from the concrete supports.
I suspect loneliness and unrequited love kills at least as many people each year as Covid does now, especially among men and boys.
I feel sad for his family, but at least he is not in anguish, anymore.

I find it amazing someone can choke on false premises  as much as you do, and not strangle themselves.

Our resident Lazarus is raised from the dead and everyone carries on as though it was one of those things?  This ought to make the 2022 Top Stories list.

Did Elon Musk buy this platform?

I don't know, did he? You should know!

When someone commits suicide, it's because they are not of sound mind, if perhaps only for that moment. Jehovah is not going to punish them for that. 

Putting bacon on a cheeseburger does not make it a cheeseburger.

He shot himself.

Last September, our congregation lost a loving, exemplary sister, aged 61, when she gassed herself to death in her car!
She had struggled with bi-polar disease her entire life. When she and her Elder husband attempted a permanent Bethel assignment, her illness prevented them from staying. They were happily married and zealous for 30-some years. He died of cancer in September of 2019.
Then her JW mother died w dementia in Feb 2022. I thought: “Now she’ll see what life is like for single sisters w no family in Truth (she did have JW bro and sis-in-law in Oregon).” She was left not needing to work secularly, but the losses played along with her illness and she caved.

I just found out yesterday that a brother who used to date one of the sisters from our hall killed himself two days ago. They had got in trouble and were both disfellowshipped. Then they both got reinstated but the sister started dating someone else and 3 months ago got married. Apparently he just couldn't get over it. He was only 23.

As far as I am concerned, Moise, you can stay being as obnoxious as you want. I have no authority of any kind on this forum, don’t want any, and have never suggested you be bounced.
