This is a worrying question for many reasons. 

First it is built on the assumption that anyone who kills themselves will go to hell. (Which is not necessarily true by the way) And the questioner seems to think they can get around that by asking someone else to kill them instead. 

The second problem here is the attitude of trying to avoid the penalty while still committing the sin. It displays a deviousness that wants to still commit the sin while avoiding the consequences. And that shows a lack of honesty and is never the right way to think.

But the biggest worry is that someone asking such a question maybe indicating they are so desperate that they want to end their life. And let's face it, there are times when problems become so great and seem so insoluble that death seems preferable. And if that is the case then I would urge you to talk to someone about your problems. Find a wise Christian friend if you can. Or if you can't, then at least contact an online helpline like the Samaritans to talk frankly about your problems. The problem is one where everything is out of perspective and talking can help bring things back into perspective. Remember that while life may seem impossible now, things will be very different for you ten years or twenty years down the line. The important thing is don't give up.

Mark Vestal Supporter Proud of nothing of myself. Freed by Christ who did it all!

In viewing the question as a hypothetical (hopefully)...but even otherwise, no. It is lack of faith that sends one to hell (Eph 2:8-9), as our sins were forgiven at the cross (2 Cor 5:19). Fortunately, we cannot remove our spiritual "seal" and eternal promise that was gifted us upon having this faith in Christ.

Eph 1:12-14
"That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory."

Eph 4:30
"And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption."
