This might be complicated, this involves time.?

Question

Ok my friend and I are having a sort of debate. Is time eternal? Does time have a begining and an end? any help is useful.

Answer 1

Time is from beginning to end. While it has a beginning and an end, we can rejoice with the fact that time is just an event in eternity. God exists in eternity. There is eternity because God exists.  

There are two popular concepts of time. The first says time exists only in the mind, but not in the physical world. Time, therefore, is only an illusion of the mind. Here, time is being distinguished from change. Time does not have anything to do with change. Things change because they undergo processes like motion, growth, process and state of being. There is only present. Past and future do not exist in the physical world but occur only in the mind, which has abilities to recall and expect. These abilities are based on man's sensory experience of the world.

In the second concept of time, people refer to time as the cause of change itself. Time is a collection of instants, a causal event that encompasses everything. Here, an event cannot happen without the influence of time. Events like motion, growth, process and even "state of being" happen simultaneously because time encompasses all of them. Time is like a thread that links the universe, holding all living and non-living things in perfect harmony.

time is eternal

Answer 3

if the universe started with the big bang, then thats also when time began.

currently science thinks that the universe is expanding, and accelerating,  so it will never end in a big crunch. Time will continue forever....

however there may be a time, when the universe expands so much, and all of the stars and energy had burnt out and gone cold... that the passage of time, is largely irrelevant.

It may still be passing.... but there may be nothing left to watch the passing of that time
