The Bible warns us concerning the brevity of the human lifespan. “You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away” (James 4:14).
Binalaan tayo ng Bibliya tungkol sa kaiksian ng buhay, "Sapagkat ang buhay ninyo'y parang aso---sandaling lumilitaw at pagdaka'y nawawala" (Santiago 4:14).
