That's right folks. Elon says, "Death is important because people rarely change their minds--they just die. If you live forever, we might become a very ossified (turned into bone, yikes!) society where new ideas cannot succeed."
GotQuestions.org begs to differ.
"It is a mistake to view eternal life as simply an unending progression of years. A common New Testament word for "eternal" is aionios, which carries the idea of quality as well as quantity. In fact, eternal life is not really associated with "years" at all, as it is independent of time.
"For this reason, eternal life can be thought of as something Christians experience now. Believers don't have to "wait" for eternal life, because it's not something that starts when they die. Rather, eternal life begins the moment a person exercises faith in Christ."
Contrary to what Elon Musk may believe, the Book of Acts says, "all who were appointed to eternal life became believers" (ACTS 13:48) and genuine believers are all about change:
- first, we change our minds about who Jesus is
- second, we change the direction our lives are on and
- third, we turn from our sin and follow Him.
But that's only the beginning. To really change, we must recognize that the Bible is a supernatural book with the ability to transform the lives of those who study it and put its teachings into practice.
GotQuestions.org puts it this way: "The Bible is literally "God breathed" (2 Timothy 3:16). In other words, it is God's very word to us, totally reliable and without error. The Bible is unique among so-called "holy" books in that it does not merely give moral teaching and say, "Trust me." Rather, we have the ability to test it by checking the hundreds of detailed prophecies that it makes by checking the historical accounts it records, and checking the scientific facts it relates. Those who say the Bible has errors have their ears closed to the truth."
A wise man once said: "How can you know that you have eternal life? First of all, confess your sin before our Holy God. Then accept God's provision of a Savior on your behalf. "Every one who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved" (ROMANS 10:13). Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for your sins, and He rose again the third day. Believe this good news; trust the Lord Jesus as your Savior, and you will be saved (Acts 16:31). -- GotQuestions.org
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God" (JOHN 1:1).
"The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth" (JOHN 1:14).
