Issues
1. Everlasting life would be so boring!
2. Why everlasting, when life is full of so much trouble?
3. If people never died, wouldn't the earth get overpopulated?
4. Everlasting life is not what everyone would expect!
Everlasting life would be so boring!
It's quite reasonable to think, that not an astute bible reader made this statement, for the first time. Everlasting life is one of the core teachings of the bible. Also, it is the reason Jesus gave his life on behalf of all mankind, to pay the price to buy mankind back from sin and death after we had been sold there by Adam and Eve. 1 Corinthians 15:45; states; So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living person.”+ The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.+ Everlasting life will be far from boring, life in the peaceful new world that God has in store for obedient mankind will packed with so much variety, throughout all eternity, one will never find out all the things that Jehovah has made. Ecclesiastes 3:11
Why everlasting, when life is full of so much trouble?
This is another statement, that lets one know that either this person is not a bible reader, or they missed the point altogether. It's really inexcusable, ones that read God's word. The stories of the bible are packed with energy, God's energy! “Lift up your eyes to heaven and see. 26
“Lift up your eyes to heaven and see.
Who has created these things?+
It is the One who brings out their army by number;
He calls them all by name.+
Because of his vast dynamic energy and his awe-inspiring power,+
Not one of them is missing Isa, (40:26)
All through the scriptures God's power is evident, and also his love. wisdom, and Justice too. so why would a God of justice give us everlasting life without making the necessary adjustments to the earth, so that the survivors will have abundant peace.
But the meek will possess the earth,+
And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace (Pss. 29:11; 37:1
If people never died, wouldn't the earth get overpopulated?
Unthinkable! Then God said: “Let us+
make man in our image,+ according to our likeness,+ and let them have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and the domestic animals and all the earth and every creeping animal that is moving on the earth.”+ 27 And God went on to create the man in his image, in God’s image he created him; male and female he created them.+ 28 Further, God blessed them, and God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many, fill the earth+ and subdue it,+ and have in subjection+ the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving on the earth.” Notice he specifically said to fill the earth, not overpopulate it. Also, Jehovah is the giver of life, he knows the capacity of the earth and how many people it can hold around 95 billion people, and if he needed he could turn off childbearing just like turning off a light switch. Nothing is impossible for our majestic Creator. We don't know how, we would have to wait and see how He will keep the earth from being overrun with people.Jehovah is our Lawgiver,+
Jehovah is our King;+
And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces.+
The reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth,
For Jehovah himself has spoken it. (Isa. 25:8)
Come quickly, Lord Jesus! Amen!
