Your question : The Bible talks about reincarnation somewhere ? How do we know this is our only life? Our answer : The Bible never mentions reincarnation , but actually proves otherwise ... And as it is appointed unto men once to die , but after this the judgment. ( Hebrews 9:27 ) If the Bible is right , then why God does not allow reincarnation ? Consider the idea of reincarnation may fail in its essence . Reincarnation is the theory that with enough lives , a person can somehow finally hit and thus be accepted in paradise / nirvana. Many people think they are already good enough - even - to heaven . ( They never robbed a bank or killed anyone ) . With reincarnation , the idea is very similar . The only difference is that it suggests that you will be good enough ... eventually . But why is an idea fails ? Because it does not take into account human wickedness . The Bible says that the human heart is the most deceitful thing that can exist ( Jeremiah 17:9 ) . That is pretty bad . It gets worse . The Bible also says that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God ( Romans 3:23 ) , everyone turned away from God and each one is turned away by the way ( Isaiah 53:6 ) , there is not a righteous man on earth who do good (Psalm 53:3 ) , and not sin ( Ecclesiastes 7:20 ) . So what is the advantage of returning to earth in a different body ? The degree of change would not be enough to make a difference. You live your life first as a sinner who fell away from God , then you return as a different person after all is a sinner who fell away from God . This eternal cycle would not bring any benefit to anyone. Since we are sinners , we need forgiveness . Since all of us away from God , we must return to Him ( repentance) . That is the enduring message of the Bible . God tells us to return to Him in order to be forgiven and to seek Him in order to know Him better . If we do that , then the sky begins in this life and can only continue in the next life . To worship Him - not a different place to live - the sky is made to do just that . Even the Bible fold down reincarnation , she talks about the resurrection of all people ... It is time for all who are in the tombs will hear His voice and come forth . Those who have done good , unto the resurrection of life and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation (John 5:28-29 ) Here is another passage of Scripture on this trial ... And I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it ... And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne , and books were opened ... and they were judged every man according to their works ... And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire . ( Revelation 20:11-15 ) Wondering how to get your name written in the book of life ? Sincerely ask God for His forgiveness now . Jesus died for our sins so you can be forgiven . But receiving Gods forgiveness implies turning to Him in sincerity and with a commitment of your life .
