Yeah. And... Like, there's a lot of stuff in that show that's not in the Bible, but it's plausible. He's joking around with them. That stuff, I think, really happened, even if it's not in Scripture. Jesus, they had to have cut up. They had to have joked around, you know.

I'm sure they got, you know, ate some, you know, I don't know, roasted lamb or something, got heartburn or, you know, wasn't cooked enough and diarrhea or something. I don't know, but, like, we're humans, you know, and we just got to continue that in ministry, you know.

Um... It's, uh... I got a lot of thoughts. Like, I... There's a lot to unpack here. First of all, no one commits suicide because things are going all right. No one does that because life is worth living. So they're broken. There's a lot going on there. Internally, there's also problems externally, support systems that are not in place that should be. So I recognize that element of it.

But also, like... And this is, like, I'm not saying this lightly. I don't want any listener to take it lightly or anything, but, like, I think it's a cowardly thing to do. They've got so many burdens that are pushing them into the grave, and they want to, like, it's just almost too much to bear.

So they'll end their life, but in doing that, that burden is handed over to someone else to sort out or figure out, you know, and... I don't know. It's just a complicated thing to unpack. I've had people at the church commit suicide or family members, things like that. Not my own family members, but family members, church people have done funerals and stuff like that. It's tough, man.

I wish I could give an answer. It's just a messy thing. Do they go to heaven? God's grace is big. God's grace is big. God can get anyone to heaven that he wants to get to heaven, you know.

Like it was, if somebody committed suicide, it was immediately like, there was a teaching for a long time that they were just immediately condemned to hell because it was murder. You're murdering yourself. Thou shalt not kill. And you've killed yourself. But the act of murder happened. Like, you committed that act of murder even though it was yourself.
