Is it a sin to cut yourself?!
Question: it says that your body is a temple, so would you go and throw rocks in a temple/church window? you shoudl treat your body the same way. i know its hard to think of, i used to cut, its been about a month now, its very hard and it becomes an addiction, but to God, it is a sin and he doesnt like to see his child cuttin their own flesh...stay strong

Yes it is a sin to self mutilate.
is it a sin if you accidently hurt yourself?
I don't know if I'd call it a sin, but I'm certain that God wouldn't want you to hurt yourself. You need to learn a better way to deal with your problems. Take care.
ya, it is, and why do u wanna do that?
Yes
Wow. The stupidest question from the most ironically-named person.
Depends on your intentions and your religion.
Assuming that you are of Christian nature, and that you are attempting suicide, yes it is.
(Not enough details provided from asker)
Yes becuz ur damaging Gods body not urs!
he is just lettin u borrow it..........believe me i have been there just hang on and ask God to help you...it may take time but be patient........GOOD LUCK!
Self mutilation is complicated enough without adding the guilt factor into it.No,it's not a sin,but a symptom of much deeper issues.While the reasons(and methods)vary,there is anger,guilt,frustation on a level that needs immediate attenion.I don't know if this applies to you or someone you know,but please,get help for yourself or the person you're talking about.They need a freind,not a judge
TL
no
and don't ask me what cutting is "about".
I don't know
But it ain't about sin...
whoever is putting those thoughts into your head is not doing you any favors...
and....
if "thought putter" is doing it in order to gain "convert" to earn "brownie points" with God..
THAT seems like it might fall into "sin" category
Most organized religions actually have a place for self flagellation - they just don't want to admit it. It is usually done for the blessings of God.
Psychiatrically, it is usually done as a manifestation of mental issues of self-worth for the purpose of physically feeling pain in place of well intentioned intimacy ( feeling ) with others.
In a way yes. If you cut yourself you have some major problems that need to be looked after asap.
It is a cry for help. Look for help another way. Ask Jesus to help you, rather than hurting yourself. Ask him for a clear mind and understanding, and to lead you to a supportive person in you community.
I believe that it depends on the what the person's individual beliefs are.
I would not consider it to be. However, others would .
im sure it is.
God wants you to respect your body, but I personally think he would understand one's reasons for doing it as well.
If you are cutting yourself, get help, and if you believe, ask for forgiveness.
yes it is. ur body is a temple......................stop doing that crap
please don't listen to all of the people trying to make you feel worse. it's not a sin. If you're doing it to try to commit suicide, you might want to reconsider that because suicide is a sin. However, it's your body. I would discourage it because it just causes trouble and is a pain in the butt to deal with. But if that's what you want to do...but don't let people fool you into guilt and stuff like that. I've got your back. :)
To answer your question simply: yes.
Our bodies are God's temple. Do any of us treat our bodies as well as we should? Probably not. But as with all other sin, we are forgiven if we believe and ask for that forgiveness. And the last thing God wants believers to feel is guilt. That is exactly the type of thing he has freed us from.
But grace should not be abused. Just like with any other sin, if it is a problem for you, you need to cut it out (no pun intended!)
If you (or someone you know) is doing this, you need to get help. Don't keep it to yourself. Talk to someone you trust, a friend or a pastor.
Anything done out of despair is a sin; cutting, suicide, buying crap you don't need at the mall to try and feel better.
God loves us and wants us to be happy, or at least content. I know it seems hard to BE happy and content, but that's why we're here, to learn the knack of it.
Don't think so. But I do it, and don't really think twice about God. yeah, i'm wrong, but I cant stop. I don't think its a sin, but it does make God unhappy.
as i person who has cut ..
it's not wether it's a sin or not
it was a release for me ..
it was a way to let to pain just flow out of me..
it's not a good thing to do i try everyday NOT to do it and i know 2 nights ago i was an idiot and tried again but i did stop...
yeah.
Yeah and its pretty stupid too
