Let that word sink into your skull for a second. Good....shepherd. A good shepherd looks out for his sheep not because he is forced to, but because he personally wants and desires to.

John 10:18
No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again.

I am eternally grateful that Jesus desired to lay His life down for my sake!
so if someone is allowed to kill himself for the sake of his sheep , why cant they kill themselves for better reasons than sheep ? but like i said, just give me one verse that says suicide is a sin .
