Eternity
In the Bible, the concept of eternity is deeply rooted in the nature of God and His relationship with creation. Eternity is often associated with God's infinite existence, devoid of time, as seen in verses such as Psalm 90:2, which states, "Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God." This verse emphasizes that God exists beyond the confines of time, highlighting His eternal nature.Eternity also pertains to the destiny of human souls. The New Testament speaks of eternal life as a gift from God through faith in Jesus Christ (John 3:16; Romans 6:23). This eternal life is not merely unending existence but a quality of life that includes a personal relationship with God. Conversely, the Bible also speaks of eternal separation from God, often referred to as hell (Matthew 25:46). In essence, eternity in the biblical context encompasses both the infinite nature of God and the eternal destinies of humanity, underscoring the importance of one's relationship with the Creator.
