And actually, eternal means no beginning nor ending...So for your religion to say that Jesus' sacrifice is eternal, you are saying Jesus's sacrifice didn't start 2000 years ago, Jesus has been being sacrificed on the Cross since before the Creation...Don't you people even think about the legitimacy of this stuff???

Misunderstanding the meaning of "eternity" on your part does not indicate duplicity on our part.

You have made the common mistake of assuming "eternity" looks like a timeline that goes to infinity in both directions: that is incorrect.

"Eternity" stands outside that timeline completely with the concept of sequential events collapsing completely.

So there is no past nor future...Everything is happening right now...The Creation is right now...Me or you being in heaven is happening right now...The Red Sea is opening right now...We haven't even been created yet, right now...

Jesus is being born today, right now...

I guess you have to be a student of Plato or one of them real thinkers to get that one...

Curious thing tho...God put 'was' in the bible 3638 times...And he said shall be/will be 2161 times...Why didn't God just use is, am, and are in the scriptures...???

I don't buy your theory...
