Is anything infinite?  Even time or space?

No human can claim to be infinite. But God is infinite. He is omnipotent,omniscience and omnipresent.

Definitely not time or space. God is infinite :)

So when people say time or space goes forever, without end, its a false statement?

If God is infinite then everything that measures his attributes are also infinite.

What does this mean? How can you measure God, I say you can't.

Getting back to the original question, I think we all have a problem with the very concept of infinity. I believe God is infinite because He says in the Bible that He always existed, He also says He always will so in that sense time would also be infinite. But being infinite also means time as we know it doesn't exist to God.  For us time isn't infinite and not just because our lives are finite but also because God says the age of mankind will have an end. But only the Father knows when that will be. IMO the main reason only the Father knows this may be because He hasn't decided on it yet. But that's just my opinion and I'm wrong as often as I'm right about things like this. So practically speaking the answer to the question is nothing is infinite.

Peace, joy, love, hope, faith, eternal life, and heaven are all infinite things.

Irrational numbers are also infinite.

It was a simple answer to a complex problem.
