Is that suicide or delusion?
People do envoke suicide by willfully making a sudden threatening move when in the sights of police marksmen to knowingly end their own life ....
Personally I find that a cowards way out, as they could have ended their own life without involving others .... Apparently this "Jesus" character could have saved his own life with Woo as some other suicide victims could have saved their own life by not making a sudden move ....
Dog.
is jumping on a grenade to save rest of your squad suicide?
what about pushing your child out from in front of a bus wen you know the bus will hit you?
There is an element in self sacrifice that is not present in suicide. That's dying so someone else could live.
Christ died so that you may have eternal life. So not a suicide, but self sacrifice.
