I was lucky enough to hear John Bevere at my church a few weeks back. He spoke from his most recent book, Driven by Eternity. He spoke on the fact that we should be living our lives with an eternal perspective rather than living for tomorrow or even 50 - 500 years from now. During his message he made this very interesting point regarding Paul the Apostle's letter to James, Chapter 4, verse 14 "...For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away." John gave his opinion that Paul would have written this sentence different had he been living in our day. The reason? Elementary-level mathematics. Our elementary school students learn that any whole number divided by an infinite is equal to zero. In real analysis, this is also called the real projective line.
I was pondering on this for a couple of days and this thought came to my mind. "Would knowledge fit in this category also?"
To continue, let me set a precedence
In real analysis the following is true,
. Therefore, 
is equal to 
.So I propose this, if a = knowledge, we will always (while on this earth) know absolutely nothing (0) until we are in eternity, where we will have eternal knowledge, therefore, knowing everything (∞).
Any thoughts?
