      Absolutely. Aging doesn't exist....ultimately it's a belief and a human expectation. To conform to the collective we must, to a certain extent, take on the believe we are "ageing".....but in actuality, there's not reason for the body to decay in any way.
      The more you live tapped into your inner being....the less mental static there is....responsible for all the stress factors that lead to ageing.

    I love how his channel says spiritual unfoldment. That tells me that we dissolve into something rather than nothing . The fact that words can contain meaning is astonishing . We are astonishing because we are the miracle of existence. See that . In seeing that you realize no matter what we are always ok because you are with God always , we borrow our love , our sorrows , our pain , our body from a source that is shared by all . May Christ Jesus be with us . Amen 🙏

      The Christian scripture details all. Man as a collective are innately sinful due to the purported transgression of Adam and eve in the garden of Eden. They ate the forbidden fruit, so God cast them out of the holy kingdom and cursed them to live in the finite world, rather than the divine eternal world. He said "go forth and multiply", essentially saying fornicate at your wish and your peril. This is the biblical story.
