There is no other book in the Bible that refers to eternity more than the Bible’s book of Psalms. Believe me, I counted them. I found at least 118 references to eternity, forever, and everlasting in the Psalter. Let’s start with a verse many will recognize, Psalm 23, verse 6: “Surely goodness and mercy shall…
