Why do I still age if I haven`t done anything wrong?

So there`s no eternal life like christians say there is?
Sure their is. Eternal Life in Jesus, through Jesus and with Jesus.

The Resurrection of the dead.

How much of Scriptures and the Christian faith have you explored?

Start with Romans chapter one and work towards chapter 5.

You don't actually think "eternal life" means you are forever young in this world, do you?
There are a few video games out there which I believe interpret it this way.

Well yes. It is called the Resurrection from the dead for a reason. ;)

Be a bold explorer and read the chapters I recommend. Then let’s chat either here or PM me.

But if you mean you get eternal life if you really and truly do everything right, why haven`t anyone done it already?
Do you seriously think that when "eternal life" is spoken about, it means an eternity spent in these physical bodies??

Well, I guess I`m aging like everyone else even though I can`t really say I have done anything wrong to anyone or something and I`m not denying god or jesus ether, so I still age and die and lose my body I have now?

You are already dead; you are a child of Adam - born dead: decaying, and without a spirit of your own. That is why you age. Depending on your genetics, you may decay slower than some others. But the end is the same: complete expiration.


Once you are resurrected as a son of God (not a son of man), then you will be alive, and won't decay to expiration.

It isn't about whether or not you did well enough; clearly the Father has no problem s taking people who have done well. It is all because of what you are: a son of man. Son of Man lost his title of son of God, and immediately died and left his first estate. His offspring, as a consequence, are born dead/dying/decaying to expiration.

Video games are a great source of Christian teaching, right?

Heh.

Well, bodies are temporary.
And, while you've got one, you'll be growing a soul.
And, those are eternal.

Souls are... a little bit like trees.
It takes them a little while to grow and bear fruit, but they do eventually
What's the fruit of your tree looking like?
If it's misery, despair, bitterness, resentment, selfishness, fear, envy, lust, anger, pain....
You probably want to get that thing cut down
And ask Christ to plant a new one
That grows some better fruit.
And follow what He says
To make sure what He planted grows
And bears fruit
And the last of what was cut down
Withers and dies

'Cause I'm pretty sure
The fruit of the souls that we have grown
Is going to be the fruit we are eating
Eternally
