1 | do we choose how long we live | Ps 90:10 | krnkoontz | 182408 | ||
I was talking to my sister today and she said that the bible says that if you die before 70, then it wasn't God's Will. I am confused she also made a reference to a well-known preacher refering to that as well. I for one have not heard such a thing, so I am trying to just ask. She is implying that we choose how long we live. | ||||||
2 | do we choose how long we live | Ps 90:10 | Machaira | 182409 | ||
The well known preacher to which you refer may be thinking of Psalm 90:10, but that's just a guess. In any case, the psalmist in that particular Psalm only speaks of "70" as an average life span and says no more than that. If you ever discover where your sister got this strange teaching I'd love to know. In all my years as a student of the Bible, I have never heard of such a thing. Machaira |

3 | do we choose how long we live | Ps 90:10 | Machaira | 182410 | ||
I'm sorry, I neglected to post the verse. Here it is: Psa 90:10 The years of our life are seventy, or even by reason of strength eighty; yet their span is but toil and trouble; they are soon gone, and we fly away. |
