Sucicide - A Sin?

Perspectives on our world and our universe, how it works, what is happening, and why it happens. Whether by a hidden hand or natural laws, we come together to hash it out, and perhaps provide a little bit of education and enlightenment for others. This is a place for civil discussion. Please keep it that way.

Doesn't the Bible say that at the moment of death, Jesus said "It is done." Isn't it understood that he died not from the wounds he suffered or from crucifixion, but of his own will? Wouldn't this be considered suicide?

I always thought that since Jesus was, you know, God, he knew when he was going to die and decided to announce it to everyone. He did previously pray that he wouldn't have to go through with the whole dying thing, if I recall correctly. If I don't, then you can ignore that.

Aren't delusions great?
