Where does the Bible say say what you mean and mean what you say?

That is not from the Bible. Neither is 'god helps those who help themselves', or 'money is the root of all evil'. The closest thing that the Bible says is this: 12But above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by the earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation.A colloquial explanation of this would be as in the question 'mean what you say.' People should not need to add oaths to what they say to prove their sincerity. Likely if people do this in ordinary speech they are the more likely to be suspect.Well the bible does not say exactly that but "let your yes be yes and your no be no" Matt 5:37.

Why do people refuse eternal life?

People don't "refuse" it. It's just that not everyone believes the same thing that you do. For example, many Christians believe Jesus died for their sins, and those who believe in him will gain eternal life. But many other religions-- Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, just to name a few, do not share that belief. These religions do not "reject" eternal life-- they simply believe in a different religious path. For example, I am Jewish and while I respect my Christian friends, I do not believe Jesus was the messiah. You could say that I am "refusing" eternal life, or you could find out more about what Jews believe so that you could respect their views about the afterlife. In other words, we don't have to agree, but it's always a good idea to understand how various religious traditions answer life's biggest questions.I would say that it's more ignoring than "refusing." Very few people consciously refuse eternal life. Rather, they allow themselves to be swept up by materialism, mental laziness, and hedonism, never bothering to delve into the spiritual.It isn't quite clear what you mean by "refuse eternal life". Personally, I believe that we have an immortal soul, whether we want to or not. However, many people may simply not believe in the possibility of an eternal life.


What does Jesus say about himself?

He said He is the Way, the Truth, and the Light. He is God Jesus said he is not God. "And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God." Matthew 19:17, Mark 10:18
