Stars Consume Their Fuel
The fact that the stars are still shining shows that they are not infinitely old. All stars including the Sun burn fuel. Their fuel supply must be limited. If they are infinitely old it is hard to explain why they are still shining. Is it possible to renew the fuel of stars and make new radioactive materials?
The above arguments are valid, but some people have sought to get around them with a variety of complicated schemes. Most of them sought a continuous or renewable fuel supply so the universe could be uncreated, without beginning or end. Frankly this is a philosophical preference, without any scientific basis. To decide scientifically we first have to understand cosmology.
