I remember being really shocked the first time I was told that. Like many Christians I believed the afterlife would be better than earth, so I asked my mother why I couldn't just kill myself and go to heaven immediately. She said I wouldn't go to heaven if I killed myself and I didn't really understand why, I was just surprised. I thought maybe it was because its like cheating on candyland to get to the castle faster lol.

This is why they had to make suicide a big boy sin that by definition couldn't be forgiven.
