Haven't we all, at one time or another, wondered what the future will be like? Experts of men have had a spotty reputation as most of their predictions have proved untrue.
What does the Bible tell us? "The God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed....It shall break in pieces all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, and it shall stand forever." (Daniel 2:44, Revised Standard Version)
Is this good news? Of course, when we realize what God's Kingdom is. It is a real government that will replace all of the existing governments on the earth and stand forever. Stability and order will be brought to people on the earth. What will life be like under this government?
NO MORE WAR (Psalm 46:9)
NO MORE SICKNESS (Isaiah 33:24)
NO MORE FOOD SHORTAGE (Psalm 72:16)
NO MORE PAIN, SORROW AND DEATH (Revelation 21:4)
These are just some of the promises made in the Bible about God's Kingdom, and there are more. God has promised all these wonderful things for the future. All righteously inclined people can avail themselves of these promises. Does this sound good to you?

Re: THE FUTURE
Post #141The spirit realm is not for immortals only. That has been shown with ITimothy 6:16. And that 120 years was not an age limit for men. People lived many years after that, beyond 120 years. Methuselah lived for approx. 900 years.myth-one.com wrote: ↑Fri Apr 26, 2024 1:11 pmThe spirit realm is the only immortal realm.onewithhim wrote: ↑Fri Apr 26, 2024 12:37 pm Humans may live forever on this earth after the Great Tribulation and Armageddon and the Thousand Year reign of Christ and his immortal co-rulers.

God put an age limit of 120 years on the age of any one man.

The Bible describes a wonderful future for mankind right here on this beautiful planet. Our Creator will "wipe away every tear from our eyes; and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things [former things] will have passed away." (Revelation 21:4, NASB) Brackets mine.

God put an age limit of 120 years on the age of any one man.
Then name an immortal natural bodied animal.
It has been claimed by your incorrect understanding of First Timothy 6:16.
It has been confirmed by scientists.
Then Methuselah was born prior to the 120 year limit being set in our DNA.onewithhim wrote: ↑Wed May 01, 2024 8:41 am People lived many years after that, beyond 120 years. Methuselahlived for approx. 900 years.
