Will Suicide Bombers Obtain Heaven?

Those who seek to terrorize others by killing themselves along with innocent people can never be assured of reaching Heaven. Among those in the Sacred Scriptures who committed suicide is Judas. And through the Word of God we know he lost his soul: “And Satan entered into Judas, who was surnamed Iscariot, one of the twelve” (Luke 22:3). “And he indeed hath possessed a field of the reward of iniquity, and being hanged (Judas hung himself), burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out....So that the field is called....’The field of blood‘” (Acts 1:18-19).



When God revealed: “Thou shalt not kill” He did not simply request us not to kill, but He Commanded us not to kill. Much like those who favor abortion, suicide bombers are cowards who lack a true faith in God. They place their faith in the opinions of men rather than God\'s Word.  



Suicide bombers are selfish misguided fanatics who use their religion to justify their ideology. They do not earn the respect of truly religious people, and unlike a true soldier, will never be remembered as heroic. Their life is wasted, and they are placed among the criminals of society, rather than among those who have benefited society. A truly religious person loves God, and his neighbor, no matter who that “neighbor” may be. A religious fanatic only loves himself, and being filled with hatred for his \"enemies,\" will even kill women and children to further his “cause.”



Will some suicide bombers eventually obtain Heaven?   The extent of the God\'s mercy will always remain a mystery to us, but we know that God is also Just, and those who kill themselves and/or others with the belief that their actions will guarantee them a place in Heaven, will experience that Justice.
