   No, I don't, liar. You've already seen and admitted olam does not   
   necessitate a never ending period of time. Further, your proposed   
   interpretation about how it relates to planet earth flatly contradict   
   what the context of the New Testament teaches.

   Take your own advice, stupid hypocrite. You're the heretic who ignores   
   the context of the NEW TESTAMENT when it doesn't suit the lies you try   
   to impose on the Old Testament. My view shows the harmony of the Old and   
   New Testament statements about the duration of the earth. Yours   
   contradicts both what the Old and New Testament clearly teaches, which   
   is that the earth will not last eternally, but will be folded up,   
   changed like a robe, dissolved by fire, and replace with a New Heavens   
   and earth.   
      
   --   
   Have you heard the good news Christ died for our sins (†), and God   
   raised Him from the dead?   
      
   That Christ died for our sins shows we're sinners who deserve the death   
   penalty. That God raised Him from the dead shows Christ's death   
   satisfied God's righteous demands against our sin (Romans 3:25; 1 John   
   2:1-2). This means God can now remain just, while forgiving you of your   
   sins, and saving you from eternal damnation.   
      
   On the basis of Christ's death and resurrection for our sins, call on   
   the name of the Lord to save you: "For 'everyone who calls on the name   
   of the Lord will be saved'" (Romans 10:13, ESV).
