"Why would eternal life create beings that die?"?

Question

--We Who Dream.

Answer 1

Because you don't want to live forever in limitation. In the same way that you want night to follow day so that tomorrow you may begin again, and winter to follow summer so that you might be filled with the wonder of new life, in this way you insist that life be made precious with the ever present specter of death.

Our minds are divided on life and death just as they are on joy and sorrow but one cannot be without the other. This is the dual nature of mind which spins the universe from one moment to the next in a continuous movement from one pole to the other and back again; the dance of life.

Beyond the movement is a stillness of Being that was never born....and so can never die. This you already know.

Answer 2

Eternal life is not only in heaven specially in earth as God wished in the begining (Genesis 1:27-28) also (Acts 24:15 and John 5:24)

Answer 3

Because that was not his perfect plan from the beginning. God created people to love Him and to be with Him forever. But He didn't want robots, He wanted people to be able to choose to love Him and desire to show Him their love. That's why He allowed the opportunity for death and sin to come into this world. The Bible starts out with God's perfect creation and the fall of mankind into death and sin but it ends with God giving eternal life to all who have repented and trusted in Jesus for their salvation. Why He couldn't have done it a different way is beyond me since I'm not God.

Revelation 21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. 2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. 4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away."

5 And he who was seated on the throne said, "Behold, I am making all things new." Also he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true." 6 And he said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment. 7 The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son.

8 But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death."

Answer 4

Well as far as the bible was concerned we were orginally created to live forever it was because of sin that we received death , physical death that is and spiritual death. The great thing is that God has made a way through Jesus Christ so that we can have eternal life through him.
