According to Gods word the Bible, through one man, Adam, sin entered into the world and death through sin,

and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned Romans 5:12. Romans 6:23 also says For the wages

sin pays is death, but the gift God gives is everlasting life by Christ Jesus our Lord. Jesus died for all mankind, opening

up a chance of everlasting life here on earth, by means of a resurrection. I believe that Jehovah reads our hearts, he nows 

the pain people feel to end there life, it is a sin to take your own life, but Jehovah is the judge of all circumstances.

Jesus deliberately went on a known "suicide mission" and died because of that decision.

I think I know where you are coming from on this, but the example needs a bit more thought.

In John 8:22 didn't the Jewish religious leaders accuse Jesus of being on a suicide mission? "The Jews then began to say: “He will not kill himself, will he? Because he says, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’’”

It seems a bit insulting to suggest that Jesus was on some sort of Kamikaze stunt. Even the term "suicide mission" seems to be wide of the mark in view of it's definition: "a task which is so dangerous for the people involved that they are not expected to survive."

It seems out of harmony with the thought of Psalm 16:10 "For you will not leave me in the Grave.You will not allow your loyal one to see the pit."

If Jesus had not been absolutely and correctly convinced of the resurrection in order for him to compete his mission, then surely he would literally have been "pitied more than anyone."?

The "known "suicide mission"" perception would only be in the mind of an unbeliever, surely?
