For believers, eternal life. For non-believers... death before 100.?

Eternal life is promised in IS 65:20-22, and the return of the messiah is in 2 Tim 1:10. Would you want to live to 240 or more... or to Methuselah's age and know you would live forever as an active healthy person, along with believing family and friends?

    All at the same time now, "THE BIBLE IS A TRANSLATED text textile. THE BIBLE IS A TRANSLATED text textile. THE BIBLE IS A TRANSLATED text textile." ok? have been given it? Take this one as an occasion, the place you record why human beings can stone. "For adultery (including city rape victims who fail to scream loud adequate) (Deut. 22:23-24)" ok, i'm no longer even advantageous the form you got here to that end analyzing it in English. yet even though. Crying out can advise extra effective than in simple terms screaming. it may additionally be taken as she comments what happened as we talk. It would not unavoidably must be taken that she actually screamed. So be careful the form you seem at this till now you bypass judgment. The regulation of Moses became between the 1st that exceeded rights for rape victims. As for each little thing out, i can't say i know each and all of the solutions. purely that God created existence, and Christ conquered dying. existence and dying is God's on my own.

    However, the reality is death for everyone by about 100.

    False promises that can't come true don't change reality. Deal with it.

    -People who don't like their beliefs being laughed at shouldn't have such funny beliefs.-

    I don't know why you're asking if I'd want to live to be 240 or more, then the Bible says that nobody is allowed to live past the age of 120 (Gen 6:3). Of course, some people have done this. In fact there's even a Bible character who does it after the rule was declared, I think. Never mind the fact that God changes his mind again and says it's 40 years (Psalms 90:10). Regardless, it's stupid to depend on this book to learn human life span limits.

    "For believers, eternal life."

    Prove it, and quoting the Buy-bull ain't evidence.

    "Eternal life is promised in IS 65:20-22,"

    lots of things are promised in the bible, and NONE of them are ever delivered.

    I'd like to live longer than I probably will, but not forever.

    I can't imagine what I'd do after the first ten thousand years passed by. Much less the first million.

    Have fun with your death-denying delusion though.
