What can you say about "everlasting life" which can be found in John 3:16? Is this gonna happen here on earth?

Answer 1

YES.
(Psalm 37:9) For evildoers themselves will be cut off, But those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth.



(Psalm 37:11) But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.



(Psalm 37:29) The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it.



(Psalm 37:34) Hope in Jehovah and keep his way, And he will exalt you to take possession of the earth. When the wicked ones are cut off, you will see [it].

The wicked will be cut off at Armageddon. From then on, only the righteous will be alive.
Also, there is to be a resurrection [ as at Rev. 20; 12,13] and those judged righteous...as to their attitude to God's new system...will also have a renewed life on the earth.
NOTE: They are not judged on what sins or crimes they committed when they were alive...because their death PAID for those sins/crimes.
(Romans 6:23) For the wages sin pays is death, but the gift God gives is everlasting life by Christ Jesus our Lord.

Wages is FULL payment. So when you die, your sins are PAID IN FULL.
It makes a lie of the teaching that further punishment in a permanent 'hell' happens.

Answer 2

Yes it is going to happen here on earth. The Bible teaches that God will bring about changes on the earth by means of his Kingdom(Daniel 2:44) These are some of the changes you can find them in these following scriptures Revelation 21:3,4 ; Isaiah 35:6; Isaiah 35:5, John 5:28,29 ; Isaiah 33:24) and Psalm 72: 16) Also these scriptures also mention people residing forever upon the earth ( Psalms 37, 10,11) You can learn so much more about this by accepting a free home Bible study from Jehovah's Witnesses in your area. There is a publication you can read entitled "What Does the Bible Really Teach" and you can also find this bible based publication at your local Kingdom hall.

Be assured that the hope of everlasting life is no man-made dream or fantasy. As Titus 1:2 says, our godly devotion is based on “a hope of the everlasting life which God, who cannot lie, promised before times long lasting.” It was God’s original purpose for all obedient humans to live forever. (Genesis 1:28) Nothing, not even the rebellion of Adam and Eve, can thwart this purpose. As recorded at Genesis 3:15, God immediately promised a “seed” that would undo all the harm inflicted on mankind. When the “seed” or Messiah, Jesus, arrived, he made the hope of eternal life one of his basic teachings. (John 3:16; 6:47, 51; 10:28; 17:3) By laying down his perfect life as a ransom, Christ obtained the legal right to bestow everlasting life on mankind. (Matthew 20:28) Some of his disciples, 144,000 in all, will live forever in the heavens. (Revelation 14:1-4) Thus some once-mortal humans will “put on immortality”!—1 Corinthians 15:53.

“Immortality” means more than simply never dying. It involves “the power of an indestructible life.” (Hebrews 7:16; compare Revelation 20:6.) What, though, does God accomplish in granting such a remarkable gift? Recall Satan’s challenge that none of God’s creatures could be trusted. (Job 1:9-11; 2:4, 5) By granting the 144,000 immortality, God indicates his complete confidence in this group that has so outstandingly answered Satan’s challenge. But what of the rest of mankind? Jesus told the initial members of this “little flock” of Kingdom heirs that they would “sit on thrones to judge the twelve tribes of Israel.” (Luke 12:32; 22:30) This implies that others will receive everlasting life on earth as subjects of his Kingdom. While these “other sheep” are not given immortality, they do receive “everlasting life.” (John 10:16; Matthew 25:46) Everlasting life is thus the hope of all Christians. It is no fantasy but something solemnly promised by “God, who cannot lie,” and paid for with the precious blood of Jesus.—Titus 1:2.

We are now on the threshold of a new world promised by Jehovah God. “There are new heavens and a new earth that we are awaiting according to his promise,” wrote the apostle Peter, “and in these righteousness is to dwell.” (2 Peter 3:13) After reading those words of Peter, some may conclude that this planet will never become a paradise. They may think that the physical heavens and earth will be replaced. Can that be so?

What are the “new heavens”? They are not the physical heavens that were created by God. (Psalm 19:1, 2) Peter had just referred to symbolic “heavens”—human governments that are lifted up or exalted above their subjects. (2 Peter 3:10-12) These “heavens” have failed mankind and will pass away. (Jeremiah 10:23; Daniel 2:44) The “new heavens” that will replace them is God’s Kingdom made up of the King Jesus Christ and his 144,000 joint-heirs resurrected to heavenly life.—Romans 8:16, 17; Revelation 5:9, 10; 14:1, 3.

The “new earth” that Peter mentioned is not a new planet. Jehovah made the earth perfect for everlasting human life. (Psalm 104:5) At times, the Bible refers to “the earth” when people are meant. (Genesis 11:1) The earth that will soon be destroyed consists of people who have made themselves part of this wicked world. Similarly, a world of ungodly people suffered destruction in the Flood of Noah’s day. (2 Peter 3:5-7) What, then, is the “new earth”? It is a new society of people—God’s true worshippers, who are “upright in their hearts.” (Psalm 125:4; 1 John 2:17) All laws for the “new earth” will come from the “new heavens.” Faithful men on earth will see that these instructions are carried out.

Answer 4

Not possible. Eventually the sun will go to a "red giant" stage and will encompass the orbit of the Earth, incinerating what is left of it in an instant. Even stars don't last forever. That, and the Bible is a bronze age book that has been copied and MIS-copied so many times that you can't rely on just about anything it says unless it is backed up by archaeology (SOME of it is!), but the divinity of Jesus was decided at the Council of Nicea in 325 A.D. He had not been worshipped as God prior to this - he was honored as a prophet. Better to concern yourself with the life at hand because it is the one you are actually in.

Answer 6

The "eternal life" that John 3:16 speaks of is a relationship with God. In this relationship:

* we have ceased to follow the desires of our own sinful selves and instead seek to please God and do his will

* God is our Father, in a literal sense: our old way of life has died and a God has created a new life within us

* we can pray to God and he hears us because the sacrifice of Christ has earned the forgiveness of our sins which were a barrier between us and God.

Therefore, the answer is yes. Eternal life begins the moment you repent from your sins and put your faith in Christ. We cannot experience it fully in the present age because it is tainted with sin. However, it has begun now and it continues eternally into the new heaven and new earth which God has planned for our future.

Answer 10

I can say that anything in the bible is fiction. Fiction is to be enjoyed for its entertainment value, but not to be taken seriously.
