Our Human Life-Span vs the Age of Creation

If the Creation of the Universe through the Big Bang was 13.8 billion years ago, and if our human life span at maximum last for 100 years, then our lifespan last only 7.3 x 10 -9 (0.0,000,000,073) of this, and only 2.2 x 10 -8 (0.000,000,022) of a fraction compared the creation of Earth at 4.543 billion years.

 Another way of putting this is, if the age of the Universe at 13.8 billion years was just one day of Creation, then 100 years of our lives lasts for just 0.23 second.  

(1 Solar year = 31,557,600 seconds)

But if the age of Earth at 4.543 billion years was just one day in Creation, then 100 years of our lives last for just 0.7 second 

Suppose we can live up to 1,000 years to beat even the record of Methuselah who was the son of Enoch, the father of Lamech, and the grandfather of Noah. He was the oldest man ever lived in the Bible who died at the age of 969 years.

Then Methuselah and our life if lasted for 1,000 years is just 7.2 x 10 -8 (0.000,000,072) of a fraction of the age of heavens since it was created, or 2.2 x 10 -7 (0.00,000,022) of a fraction, compared to the age of the Earth.

Alternatively, 1,000 years of our age as for Methuselah, lasted only 2.3 seconds if heavens were just a day (24 hours), or for only 7 seconds compared to the age of the Earth at 4.543 billion years old.

Suppose God created everything from heavens to earth, including morning and evening on the sixth day as given in Genesis 1:32. This is equivalent to 518,400 seconds (0.0164 year) for the entire creation on the 6th day assuming the length of a day during creation is the same as our current day and not shorter. 

For instance, a day was 21.9 hours long some 620 million years ago due to the gravitational influence of the Moon on tides that slowed down the rotation of the Earth due to tidal frictions over the oceans and on land causing it to lose rotational energy.

In such an event 13.8 billion years to us for creation was just 6 days for God.

Simply put, what was just one second in the eyes of God, would be 13.8 x 10 9 years / 0.0164 year = 4.35 x 10 17 / 518,400 seconds = 8.4 x 10 11 (840,000,000,000) years for us.  

Allow me now to quote what God revealed to us:

 “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day” (2 Peter 3:8)

 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night 

(Psalm 90:4)

“You do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away” 

(James 4:14)

“The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!

Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player, 

That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,

And then is heard no more. It is a tale,

Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, 

Signifying nothing

(William Shakespeare in Macbeth) 

“Life is a dream interpreted by death
Your life is a sum of counted breaths.
With each breath that passes
a part of life is lost.
That which gives life brings death every moment nearer,
and your caravan is led by one
who will not jest with you.”

(Classical Arabic, Persian, Turkish & Hebrew Poems)

“I have no time in the world but the time in which I am
and that lasts a moment and passes like a cloud.”

(Hebrew Poems)

Does the above quotes ring the bell for us to understand and always remember?

It is always much wealthier for us to enrich our immortal souls in wisdom for eternity than gathering short-term wealth and any kind of knowledge in this temporary world. 

There is a way to nourish to enrich our souls and keep it in good spiritual health daily forever if we are interested?

Unfortunately, most of us are spiritually blind and not interested. 

Most are only interested in keeping short-term physical health through good nutrition, food supplements, exercise, jogging, meditation, stress management for "longevity" for 100 years, but are not interested in the welfare, nourishment and enrichment their eternal spiritual souls. 

I am ignorant and blind to worldly nutrition and medicines for health and longetivty here in this world. 

What about you?
