How could one become bored with eternity?

Question

We will all be around for an eternity, some in God's paradise, some in outer darkness. We have a promise of a new body and a perfect mind.

Revelation 21:3 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth:

In a new body, you won't become fatigued. I can't understand people that say they will become bored. With new heavens, who knows what awaits us. There will be enought time to be everything you ever wanted, an Artist, Musician, Writer, you name it.

How would you become bored? Do you not enjoy life?

Jesus Christ said in the book of John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. kjv Holy Bible

Don't you want life, and have it more abundantly now and forever?

Answer 1

How those achieving the success of Paradise on account of faith are received therein

Paradise
The believers will be ushered on towards the grand eight gates of Paradise. There, they will receive a joyous angelic reception and be congratulated on account of their safe arrival and salvation from Hell.


“But those who feared their Lord will be driven to Paradise in groups until, when they reach it while its gates have been opened and its keepers say, ‘Peace be upon you; you have become pure; so enter it to abide eternally therein.” (Quran 39:73)

(It will be said to the pious): “O (you) the one in (complete) rest and satisfaction! Come back to your Lord, Well-pleased and well-pleasing unto Him! Enter you then among My honored slaves. Enter you My Paradise!” (Quran 89:27-30)

The best of the Muslims will enter Paradise first. The most righteous of them will ascend to the highest levels.[1]

“But whoever comes to God as a believer (in His Oneness, etc.) and has done righteous good deeds; for such are the high ranks (in the Hereafter).” (Quran 20:75)

“And the foremost (in faith) will be foremost (in the Hereafter); those are the ones brought near to God in the Gardens of Pleasure; they will enter in one rank with bright faces.” (Quran 56:10-2)

The Quranic description of Paradise gives us a vision of just what a fantastic place it is. An eternal home that will fulfill all our wholesome desires, seduce all our senses, grant us everything we could possibly want and much more besides. God describes His Paradise as having earth made of is fine musk powder,[2] soil of saffron,[3] bricks of gold and silver, and pebbles of pearls and rubies. Beneath the gardens of Paradise are flowing rivers of sparkling water, sweet milk, clear honey, and non-intoxicating wine. The tents on their banks are domes of hollow pearls.[4] The whole space is filled with sparkling light, sweet-smelling plants and fragrances that can be savored from afar.[5] There are lofty palaces, huge mansions, grapevines, date palms, pomegranate trees,[6] lotus and acacia trees whose trunks of made of gold.[7] Ripe, abundant fruit of all kinds: berries, citrus, drupes, grapes, melons, pomes; all kinds of fruit, tropical and exotic; anything the faithful could possibly desire!

“…And therein is whatever each soul desires and delights the eyes.” (Quran 43:71)

Each believer will have a most beautiful, pious and pure spouse, wearing exquisite clothing; And there will be so much more in a new world of eternal, radiant joy.

“And no soul knows what has been hidden for them of comfort for eyes [i.e. satisfaction] as reward for what they used to do.” (Quran 32:17)

As well as physical delights, Paradise will also give its residents a state of emotional and psychological bliss, as the Prophet said:

“Whoever enters Paradise is blessed with a life of joy; he will never feel miserable, his clothes will never wear out, and his youth shall never fade away. The people will hear a divine call: ‘I grant you that you will be healthy and never fall sick, you will live and never die, you will be young and never age, you will be joyful and never feel miserable.’” (Saheeh Muslim)

Ultimately, the thing that will most delight the eyes will be the Countenance of God Himself. For the true believer, to see this blessed vision of God is to have won the ultimate prize.

“[Some] faces, that Day, will be radiant, looking at their Lord.” (Quran 75:22-23)

This is the Paradise, the eternal home and final destination of the righteous believer. May God, Most High, make us worthy of it.

Answer 2

i guarantee if you get bored in this life! you will get bored in the next one. After the newness wears off, eternity will be like having to get up and go to work every day.
in the mellenium, there will be the majority of people that have to work, ihave imaginations of people polishing the brass on the temple and even on the highways as people use them. I imagine gardeners planting in the spring and shoveling snow in the winter for a thousand years. I cant even keep a job for more than 6 months without wanting to do something else.
i think of the Star Trek NG episode where one of the "Q" wants the right to commit suicide. and i make a paralell connection to this question. Then i also understand that the Forbidden Tree of knowledge gives the power to an Eternally Created being to partake of it and die! And i wonder about the similarity.

Answer 3

Your body will be pure energy. Everything is created out of energy and when the physical passes the rest goes back. At least thats where i have gotten as far as my studying. Supposidly that is the whole concept of god. Its all combined. Those who want to use it as a krutch because they are not strong enough to do it on their own, which is good if someone needs support, Reffer to the eternal as God or other names. It would take too long to completely answer this for my personal belief. Hope you are having a good day.

Answer 4

Ever been bored?
Did it have to do with being fatigued?
Time is not the limit that keeps us from getting bored, the limits that do have to do with resources, inspiration, and motivation.
How many times will you have had to exist in a place of no challenges and no limits, creating perfect things without any conflict vefore you get bored? How many perfect works of art does it take for you to give up on creating works of art with no conflict? Conflict and contrast is what makes art live, is what makes life sweet, and eventually you are going to want challenges and limitations to overcome again!

Answer 5

in the beginning up replaced into the word and the word replaced into with God, yet God is the beginning up and the tip so the word should additionally be on the tip. even nonetheless Jesus reported my words won't die and since the word grew to alter into flesh then all the words that are flesh whilst they die won't die, so as that they ought to be arranged for the subsequent beginning up after the tip in order that the recent heaven and the recent earth (which will for sure be created by employing all the words prepare) can carry all the flesh lower back. on condition that God repented having made us in the 1st place, then the recent heaven and earth ought to be lots diverse to this one that is ending now otherwise God could ought to repent yet lower back which might finally end up in a doublecross, till all those experienced and bolstered of their concept and faith are to be integrated into an life the like of which no person has any be attentive to-how which extremely defeats the factor of attempting to respond to your question with the aid of fact this is a hypothesis which serves no purpose and the alternative could be (hell) sitting around with a working laptop or laptop answering stupid questions like this consistently

Answer 6

Sure! I'd also like to be a rock star and a billionaire and solve world hunger. Who doesn't want life and more abundantly?

It just doesn't mean that your answer to "fixing all the problems" is the right one, or true.

Answer 7

Amen brother and have a Blessed Christmas

Answer 8

I couldn't even imagine how bored i would get with eternity... Don't you think there would be a point at which you would have done everything that is possible to do? I mean, forever is a long time... in fact, it never ends. Certainly you would get bored, especially if all you were doing is praising this god guy.

Answer 9

Amen brother. I've already started a list of things to do.

Answer 10

A little common sense would tell people that "boredom" doesnt exist in eternal peace. Boredom is very unpeaceful.
