In our culture, we prioritize quantitative over qualitative. We like things to be measurable, definitive, and binary. And this is what we have done to eternal life.
In our culture, we prioritize quantitative over qualitative. We like things to be measurable, definitive, binary. This is what we do with eternal life. Heaven or hell. Starting at the point of physical death and reaching forward. But, Biblically, eternal life is eternal in both directions. It's a river of life with the Triune God that has always been, and always will be, love. It's knowing God. We're invited into that life now. It's an eternal kind of life. A quality of life that just happens to have an immeasurable quantity.
