'''Eternal''' is a term used to describe that which is everlasting and has no end. As such, it does not apply to any tangible element in the physical [[universe]] which ultimately will end, but is usually used in relation to that which transcends the physical. [[God]] is usually seen as being eternal in that He has no beginning and no end and while human [[soul]]s had a starting point, they are considered to be eternal as well in the [[Christian]] worldview. | '''Eternal''' is a term used to describe that which is everlasting and has no end.
