TIME WITHOUT DECAY:
(ETERNITY IS NOT TIMELESS - IT IS TIME WITHOUT DECAY)
Many imagine eternity as a frozen, timeless existence. Scripture teaches the opposite. Revelation says there will be nations, kings, movement, worship, and ongoing life in the New Jerusalem. What disappears is not time.. it is decay.
“There shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying… for the former things are passed away” (Revelation 21:4).

(ETERNITY IS NOT TIMELESS - IT IS TIME WITHOUT DECAY)
Many imagine eternity as a frozen, timeless existence. Scripture teaches the opposite. Revelation says there will be nations, kings, movement, worship, and ongoing life in the New Jerusalem. What disappears is not time.. it is decay.
“There shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying… for the former things are passed away” (Revelation 21:4).
In our current universe, time is bound to entropy. Everything winds down. Energy dissipates. Bodies age. Systems collapse. This is why death exists. But eternity operates under a different law. God Himself sustains all things. “By Him all things consist” (Colossians 1:17).
That verse is not metaphor, it is a sustaining-force statement.
The absence of night in the New Jerusalem is critical. Night is not just darkness; it is energy loss, cooling cycles, and entropy at work. A world with no night is a world with no decay. Time continues, but it no longer erodes life. Eternity is not endless boredom, it is endless vitality.
God does not erase time. He redeems it.
