It only applies if the person is elect of God and the person repents of his sin.

Explain why Rahab was blessed for hiding spies then lying about it. That action made her part of the direct lineage of Jesus Christ, even though she was a harlot.

But she wasn't blessed for lying. She was blessed for receiving the spies. Note Hebrews 11:31, "By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace."

Wow. that is a very interestin comment. i cannot think if a single person I know with the HG that killed themself but I dont know if I can say I agree completly.

there are a number of desieses that make a person go stone cold crazy. can a HG filled saved person go nuts? if they do, are they responsible for thier actions... up to and including murder or suicide?
