My Definition

By ‘everlasting life’ I mean dying and enjoying forever all that God has prepared for you.

By ‘everlasting death’ I mean dying and suffering forever for all the evil that your have done.

My Thesis

In my view, the only sure way to everlasting life remains your faith in Jesus Christ who died for you, rose back to life, and shares his life with you.

Thirteen Antitheses

Everyone must keep on being born again as a human or other creature, until they meld into eternal oneness.

Only those who are wealthy enough to be uploaded into a supercomputer are sure to keep on living.

My proof

Jesus promised:

“Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.” Gospel of John 5:24

“For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who looks on the Son and believes in him should have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.” Gospel of John 6:40

My Conclusion

Faith in Jesus Christ remains the only sure way to everlasting life. No other person, religion, philosophy or technique offers everlasting life as a free gift to all who accept it.
