Man's limit is 120 years old

The first article below seems to suggest that humans have a age limit, even though human lifespan has increased steadily over the last hundreds of years. The second article seem to counter this saying there is no limit, and the first article uses to little data to reach the conclusions.

Scientists Say There's a Limit to The Human Lifespan – And We’ve Already Hit It

Humans Show No Sign of a Maximum Age Limit, Says New Study




What is most surprising is that the age limit mentioned by the first article is around the 115-125 years. This is of course no surprise for those who take God at His Word - see below.


Genesis 6:2-421st Century King James Version (KJ21)

2 that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were fair; and they took for themselves wives of all whom they chose.
3 And the Lord said, “My Spirit shall not always strive with man, for he also is flesh; yet his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.”
4 There were giants on the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men and they bore children to them, the same became mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

Science catching up to God's Word - Age Limit

Science catching up to God's Word - Age Limit

3 And the Lord said, “My Spirit shall not strive[a] with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.”

Now science has shown the following:

Two quotes from the article:
"The oldest human to have ever lived died at the age of 122—and that was nearly 20 years ago. A recent analysis of global demographic data suggests this may very well be the maximum age attainable by humans, and that it’s extremely unlikely anyone will ever live much beyond this advanced age."

"molecular geneticist Jan Vijg and his team from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx make the case that human lifespan has a natural limit, and that we’ll probably never exceed this maximum bound."

The researchers are contemplating the idea of a natural limit of life, and statistics so far point suggest 120 years. The oldest person being 122 years probably fall within statistical error or could even be error in records. Though this limit does not appear to be scientifically conclusive and the scientist still talk about extending life since they do not know about God's limit, it is still interesting in that scientific facts so far do point to God's limit.
