About this listen

Let me put a simple question right on the table:


When God said in Genesis 6:3, “his days shall be a hundred and twenty years,”! Was He putting a ceiling on human lifespan, which most Christians are seduced to believe today from false or confused preachers, or was He putting the world on a countdown timer?

If you read the Bible the old-fashioned way, line upon line, chapter by chapter, the “lifespan cap” idea starts falling apart almost immediately. And when something doesn’t fit the whole record of Scripture, the honest thing to do is stop, slow down, and read the passage in its proper context.
