Is Suicide a Sin?

Every 40 seconds, someone dies from suicide (World Health Organization statistic). Many of these are bible-believing Christians who couldn’t find hope in this world and thought it would be better if they were dead. So many believe that the only way they will ever find peace is if they take their own lives. As a Church, we have failed to address this and find a way to help those who struggle with Anxiety, Depression, and Suicide, which leads us to ask the question: Is suicide a sin? Is there such a thing as a spirit of suicide? Join ArieRashelle as she searches through Scripture to find answers to these questions in our video, Is Suicide a Sin?

1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Galatians 2:20
Exodus 21:12
Exodus 21:14
Numbers 35:11-12
Joshua 20:1-3
Philippians 4:13
John 1:5

Is Suicide a Sin?

The Spirit of Suicide

We believe that suicide is a spirit, as we believe every sin has a spirit behind it. 1 John 4:1 tells us, “4 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.” We believe that it is a Spirit of Suicide that plants the seed that someone is worthless, hopeless, doomed, or disgusting, in their head. Therefore, finding relief would begin in the mind. It all starts with changing your thoughts. But how do you do that? You have to make a conscious decision to change your thoughts. Then you fill your mind with scripture to tell you the truth. That you are not worthless. That you are loved. You are beautiful. You are wanted. You are not disgusting. You are a Child of God.

Who Is Lucifer?

Are Satan and Lucifer the same? Where did Satan come from? Where did Lucifer come from? Why is this being tied to the adversary of the Church, but never spoken of again by name? There has to be more to his story. He laid the nations low. He tried to make himself like God. So why don’t we know more about him? Join us as we search through scripture to find some answers as we ask the question, Who Is Lucifer?

Isaiah 14:12-15
Revelation 9:11
Revelation 12:7-9
Exodus 12:23

Who Is Lucifer?

Difference Between Satan and Lucifer

Satan and Lucifer: Lucifer

12 How you are fallen from heaven, [Lucifer], son of Dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, you who laid the nations low! 13 You said in your heart, ‘I will ascend to heaven; above the stars of God I will set my throne on high; I will sit on the mount of assembly in the far reaches of the north; 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.’ 15 But you are brought down to Sheol, to the far reaches of the pit.

Isaiah 14:12-15

Satan and Lucifer: Satan

7 Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels fought back, 8 but he was defeated, and there was no longer any place for them in heaven. 9 And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world—he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.

10 And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come, for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God. 11 And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death. 12 Therefore, rejoice, O heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to you, O earth and sea, for the devil has come down to you in great wrath, because he knows that his time is short!”

Revelation 12:7-12

Summing up Satan and Lucifer

To sum things up, we believe that Lucifer is the fallen angel known as Abaddon and Apollyon, as well as the entity referred to as The Destroyer in Exodus 12. He once laid the nations low and was worshiped by many. He said in his heart he would ascend above the stars of God, he would sit in the mount of assembly, he would ascend above the heights of the clouds, and he would become like the Most-High. But now, he is locked away in the bottomless pit until the final days when he is prophesied to be released on Earth once again. We’ll get into his role in the End Times in a video coming soon. This leaves us with the impression that he is a worse enemy to God than Satan because Satan is still on Earth, free to do as he pleases. Lucifer, however, is not. He is locked away until the time comes and the key to his freedom comes down from Heaven.

The Trinity: The Holy Spirit

Is the Holy Spirit really God? Is the Holy Spirit even a person? Does the Holy Spirit have His own thoughts? How do we know it’s not just the manifestation of The Father’s presence? Join ArieRashelle in the final video, The Spirit, of our three-part series, The Trinity, as she explains who the Holy Spirit is and what His role is in the Trinity.

Psalms 51:11
Luke 1:19
Hebrews 9:24
John 16:7
2 Timothy 1:14
Matthew 28:19
Matthew 3:11
Mark 3:28-29
Jude 1:8-10
John 3:5-6
Romans 8:26
1 Samuel 10:10
1 Samuel 10:12
Luke 1:67
1 Corinthians 12:1
Acts 1:8
Romans 15:13
John 1:32
Luke 24:29
2 Kings 4:18-37
2 Kings 2:19-22

The Holy Spirit’s Role In The Trinity:

We explained the Trinity as being a body: The Father as the brain, directing the arms and legs, which is Jesus, which means the Holy Spirit makes up the blood, veins, nerves that connect the Father and the Son. For instance, in the video above, we explained that Jesus could not begin His work on Earth until He was baptized and filled with the Holy Spirit.

32 And John (John the Baptist) bore witness: ‘I saw the Spirit descend from heaven like a dove, and it remained on Him.’

1 John 1:32

Therefore, the Holy Spirit is the one who gives out the Spiritual Gifts.

When Jesus was explaining who the Holy Spirit is to His disciples, He explained that He would bring conviction to the World.

8 And when He comes, He will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 concerning sin, because they do not believe in me; 10 concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no longer; 11 concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.

John 16:8-11

So, we can see that it’s the Holy Spirit’s role to be our conscience. Jesus never said that it was just the Church that He would do this for, but the world, which means that the world has no excuse for the Spirit has personally convicted everyone of sin, righteousness, and judgment.

Fun Fact:

1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

Genesis 1:1-2

Moses tells us that God (Elohim) created the heaven and the earth, but not the specific God-Head being because it took all three of them to create. So, the first God-Head being mentioned is the Holy Spirit.

The Trinity: The Son

How can Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and the Father all be God, if there is only one God? So is Jesus really God? Wasn’t Jesus born from a human woman? Didn’t He have an Earthly Father? How can we be sure that there is even a Trinity? Does the Bible ever actually say there is such a thing as the Trinity?

The Trinity: The Son

Jesus’ Role in the Trinity as the Son

We truly didn’t get into Jesus’s role in the video, in fear of it being too long. One of Jesus’s primary roles, as being the Word of God, is fulfilling what The Father says. We see this throughout Scripture from Old Testament to New Testament. In our last video we explained that Yahweh, The Father, makes the plans and leads the Head of the Trinity. So then can we say Yahweh is more powerful or important than Jesus? No, it doesn’t. Because they balance each other.

Each member of the Trinity has a specific role to play. The Father plans, directs, and leads the Trinity. The Son fulfills the plans of the Father. Think of The Trinity as a body. The Father is the head, and the Son is the body. The body does as the head commands. The head is not more important than the body, and the body not more important than the head, for neither can be without the other; instead they complement each other.  

For example,

19 So Jesus said to them, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, that the Son does likewise.’

John 5:19

28 So Jesus said to them, ‘When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing on my own authority, but speak just as the Father taught me. 29 And He who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him.’

John 8:28-29

Jesus follows the lead of The Father not because He is weaker, not because He is less of God, but because He humbles Himself.

Paul explains it like this:

5 Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though He was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied Himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

Philippians 2:5-8

So why would Jesus do this? If we keep reading, Paul tells us.

9 Therefore God has highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Philippians 2:9-11

So Jesus did this to glorify His Father. He took the sin, punishment, debt, and death that we could not bear so that we could have life and life more abundantly. And in doing this the Father glorified the Son, bestowing upon Him the name above all names.

Jesus is also the Righteous Judge. As any good society, there are laws. So if there are laws, there would need to be someone who decides whether the laws have been kept. Once the judge has spoken, someone must either reward or punish those whom the judge has judged.

We see this plainly when Jesus said,

21 For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom He will. 22 For the Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son, 23 that all may honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

John 5:21-23

So the Father has given Jesus the task of being a righteous judge, so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. The Father did this to make sure that all saw that the Son was honored as God, to ensure we saw that they are equal. Jesus explains when and whom He will judge.

31 When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne. 32 Before Him will be gathered all the nations, and He will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 And He will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left.

Matthew 25:31-33

So at the final judgment, we will all stand before Jesus as He sits on His throne. He will separate us according to how we lived our lives. Jesus tells us that the Father carries out His righteous judgments.

1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in me that does not bear fruit He takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

John 15:1-2

So Jesus judges and then the Father brings forth the judgment itself, whether it be a reward or a punishment.

The Trinity: The Father

The Trinity can be a confusing idea, yet an important one. It’s the core belief of all Christians. We believe God is made up of three separate entities: The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. We believe in the Godhead, but do we understand what that means? Is it possible to explain The Trinity to non-believers? Can we even explain it to each other?

Who is the Father? Is He Yahweh? Is Yahweh the same as Allah? Who is Jehovah? ArieRashelle takes on the challenge to explain the Trinity by proving each member’s God status starting with The Father in this three-part series.

The Trinity: The Father

God The Father

Within the Trinity, there is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

18 And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Matthew 28:18-20

8 See that there be no one who shall lead *you* away as a prey through philosophy and vain deceit, according to the teaching of men, according to the elements of the world, and not according to Christ. 9 For in Him dwells all the fulness of the Godhead bodily; 10 and ye are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and authority, 11 in whom also ye have been circumcised with circumcision not done by hand, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of the Christ; 12 buried with Him in baptism, in which ye have been also raised with [Him] through faith of the working of God who raised Him from among the dead.

Colossians 2:8-12

Some of the Father’s Roles in the Trinity

21 Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’

Matthew 7:21-22

49 For I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father who sent me has Himself given me a commandment—what to say and what to speak.

John 12:49

More on The Fulfillment of The Kinsman Redeemer

31 Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, 32 not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, though I was their husband, declares the Lord. 33 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 34 And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

Jeremiah 31:31-34

11 But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation) 12 He entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of His own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the sprinkling of defiled persons with the ashes of a heifer, sanctify for the purification of the flesh, 14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.

15 Therefore He is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant. 16 For where a will is involved, the death of the one who made it must be established.

Hebrews 9:11-16

19 And He took bread, and when He had given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 20 And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.”

Luke 22:19-20

The Jesus Piece

Why Jesus had to be sacrificed?

3 But in these sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year. 4 For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. 5 Consequently, when Christ came into the world, He said,

“Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired, but a body have you prepared for me; 6 in burnt offerings and sin offerings you have taken no pleasure. 7 Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come to do your will, O God, as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.’”

8 When He said above, “You have neither desired nor taken pleasure in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings” (these are offered according to the law), 9 then He added, “Behold, I have come to do your will.” He does away with the first in order to establish the second.

Hebrews 10:3-9

Why Jesus had to come as a man in order to save us?

21 For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.

The Blood of Jesus

We know we need the Blood of Jesus, but what does that mean exactly? Why do we need the blood? What does the blood do for us? Can we be saved without the blood? Join ArieRashelle as she dissects the Bible to find the answers to all of these questions in our video, The Blood of Jesus.

The Blood of Jesus

7 But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.

1 John 1:7

11 Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called “the uncircumcision” by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands— 12 remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. 14 For He Himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in His flesh the dividing wall of hostility 15 by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that He might create in Himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace, 16 and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility.

15 For neither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation. 16 And as for all who walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God.

Galatians 6:15-16

Ephesians 2:14-16

22 to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, 23 and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, 24 and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.

Ephesians 4:22-24

9 Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator. 11 Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free; but Christ is all, and in all.

The Order of Creation

God created everything in a specific order. Why?

1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. 3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.

Genesis 1:1-5

God created heaven and earth before He created anything else. Why? Why didn’t He created the sun first? Why did He wait for day 4 to create the sun?

14 And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years, 15 and let them be lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth.” And it was so. 16 And God made the two great lights—the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night—and the stars. 17 And God set them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth, 18 to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day.

Genesis 1:14-19
