heres my ideas, a weatherman can see what the weather is going to be like next week because he knows how the weather system works, everything in the universe has cause and effect, since god is the one who created the universe and designed how it was to function, he can know how things will behave and what will happen. comments? ideas?

I jsut think he created the concept of time. So I don't think he has to be confined to only the present.

Because He is cool.

My brother told me of an idea that someone came up with, on the surface it is interesting. So I will present it, this is not my belief, but just throwing it out there.

That in the spirit world, everything has already happened, thus why God is able to see into the future, the physical world that we live in is catching up to it. So what happens in the spirit will be recorded in the physical world as a prophecy.

I thought it was interesting. Just curious what others thought of this.

I don't think God can see into the future. I would say He is the Future.. and the Past and the Present.

Also, future does not actually exist as something to be experienced.. because when we get ot the future... it is still the Present.

The Future exists as an Idea because we are living in an incomplete form.. what one coudl call an illusion.

In a complete form.. there would be no Future.. Time as we know it would not exist. There would be something else.. something that we .. in our "present" incomplete form do not yet comprehend.. that will replace the dead man's "Time".

Because He can skate really fast.

no offense to you, but this is rediculous, the spiritual plane is a completly, 100% different world, it is different dimensionally as well, there are ATLEAST 10 dimensions we DONT experience because we are stuck in 3 only. which i find interesting science talks about this because one of the books not included in the bible talks about 10 different "heavens and abysses" that an angel showed someone (dont remember who)

the question remains is time a dimension? or a perception. if spiritual beings do not experience time or are outside time then i would say it is a dimension.

both.


According to physics, time exists when you have more than one objet in relative space. It is considering losely the Fourth dimetnsion.

There is length, width, heigth.. andt then Time. Because length width and heigth produce Time if there are multiple objects within them moving.

But of course.. Time is also a perception. Einsteins theory of relativity teaches that time slows down the faster you move.. but that no matter how fast you are moving.. Time remain constant for the object that is speeding up. It is only slowing down in relation to other objects.

For example.. astronauts actually Age slower when they are in space.. because they are moving faster than we who are on earth. If you acheive the speed of light.. time is supposed to cease for you.. but only in relation to other objects.


On a scriptural level.. Time is supposed to come to end.

Revelation 10:6 (King James Version)

6And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:

time is an illusion.

I did not say i believed it, I was just posting it.

i know that.

...and this is why good, thoughtful Christianity can/should exist. I love philosophical Christianity.

Having discussions about the future, bouncing them off eachother in a controlled environment. This is actually quite good!
