God and time

[Yeshua1]

there is a sense in which everything is eternal seeing that God knows all from beginning to end, no?

before there was any beginning, there was only God!

 

[HankD]

before there was any beginning, there was only God!

you mean God didn't know the beginning before it began!?

 

[Yeshua1]

you mean God didn't know the beginning before it began!?

No, rather God the trinity only existing!

 

[HankD]

No, rather God the trinity only existing!

Isaiah 46
9 Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me,
10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:

Yes, but Only God is eternal....

Of course God operates within His creation, which exists in time.
Is God confined in time? Ultimately do you think time is a creation of God or is time like God, eternal?

If your view is to assert as true what is not supported by scripture, there is nothing more I can say. Why did you not answer my question?
God is all powerful;, but He does as He chooses and He has chosen to operate in time.
Pay no attention to all these Calvinist claims devoid of support from scripture. Believe what scripture actually says, not in the speculation of men

Is God confined into time, so he cannot exist outside/apart from it?

 

[Van]

So time is eternal force?

Did Y1 answer the question with a question? False doctrine is defended by deflection and denial.

 

[Van]

was time around forever, eternal as God himself?
God interacts in linear time, see the Incarnation, but is he bound to JUST operate within confines of linear time now?

Did God choose to operate within time even in His eternal kingdom? Yes

 

[Van]

Is God confined into time, so he cannot exist outside/apart from it?

Notice the endless deflection, without answering any question. Waving the white flag of surrender, God has chosen to operate within time according to scripture.

 

[Yeshua1]

Did God choose to operate within time even in His eternal kingdom? Yes

is God bound and confined in time?

 

[Van]

is God bound and confined in time?

Asked and answered. More deflection and more denial. Did God choose to operate within time even in His eternal kingdom? Yes

 

[Yeshua1]

Asked and answered. More deflection and more denial. Did God choose to operate within time even in His eternal kingdom? Yes

can God go outside time?

 

[Van]

can God go outside time?

On and on, absurd regurgitation of nonsense, is all they have.
God is all powerful;, but He does as He chooses and He has chosen to operate in time.
Did God choose to operate within time even in His eternal kingdom? Yes

Of course God has chosen to operate in time because his creation operates in time. That does not mean, however, that God is bound in time and cannot operate outside of time.
You seem to desire to limit God. Why is that? What benefit do you receive in limiting God?

 

[HankD]

Yes, but Only God is eternal....

where did He live?

 

[Alcott]

Since God created time, how can the Creator be bound by something that He created?

Too bad Dr. Frankenstein isn't real, or you could ask him.

You put falsehoods in the mouths of others, and provide no quotes. The reason is you push falsehoods not found in scripture.

 

[Particular]

where did He live?

Are you attempting to limit God to a place?

 

[Particular]

You put falsehoods in the mouths of others, and provide no quotes. The reason is you push falsehoods not found in scripture.

Is God bound in time so that he cannot operate outside of time?
