TRAGEDY, WHY IS THERE MORE SUICIDES TODAY THAN 30 YEARS AGO?

Everyone will feel a deep sympathy for the families of the young people who have recently are reported to have committed suicide. The real or imagined sudden destruction of someones hopes and dreams can be deadly.

Bible texts describing suicide.
2 Samuel 17:23 And when Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his ass, and arose, and gat him home to his house, to his city, and put his household in order, and hanged himself, and died, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.


Matthew 27:4-6
4Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.
5And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.


A copy of the Shankill Mirror was put through my door earlier. It relates that at least 6 young people have attempted suicide last week. People are at a loss trying to undestand what is happening.
The Lord tells the people of Israel in Deut 28 what would happen to them when they would not listen to his word!
Deut 28:28 The Lord will smite thee with madness and folly, and astonishment of heart:


There is nothing madder than a society who will not face up to the truth. Why are there more suicides today than 30 years ago? because there are more drugs today!

Why are there more drugs today? That is the price society must pay for embracing a false "peace process". The authorities turned a blind eye to those involved in drug dealing as long as they supported the "peace process."

They only solution is a genuine Biblical revival.

TRUE PEACE IS GOD`S PEACE , IT IS FREE !
FALSE PEACE IS THE DEVIL`S PEACE, IT IS EXPENSIVE!
