Time and Eternity
whyisthatso:
The physical creation is dependent on time, but time itself is not dependent on the creation. The physical universe is in contstant motion, from the smallest electron to the largest galaxy. The vast expanse of the cosmos is such that it defies time, as we know it, and the only way that we humans will ever see it is to become something apart from the physical. There is a "time" that exist apart from the physical creation, in the spiritual realm. But time there is not like it is here, it is altogether something different. The Father was not exagerating when He said that a day was like a thousand years, and a thousand years like a day with Him.

I believe you are correct, whyisthatso
Most bibles only translate what we say as "time" in only one meaning.... time. Whereas God's time is Kairos (time) and He has created the universe in Chronos (time) for a timekeeper to all mankind.

Welcome Whyisthatso! :)
I'm not fighting the good fight just so I can see the vast expanse of the cosmos and how it all operates. I'll be bored to tears in a few eons for sure! :-D
I can't speak for everyone here but I'm aiming to:
1. Let go of the vast expanse of my own ego. (No, really.)
2. Believe, obey, be purified by and know God, and love my neighbor as myself; and
3. Reign with Christ to undo the works that the devil has done.
Strange as it sounds to some (like my friend Gail who doesn't believe as we do), I imagine and look forward to a time when people like Hitler are freed from the law of sin and death and begin to feel truly sorry for their sins (like Judas felt sorry for his and we for ours) and go on to be healed and obey and worship God.
Anyway, that's what I want to see. But that's me.
Glad you joined us. :)

Thanks Gina, for the warm welcome. And may I be so bold as to say that I didnt join you, but He brought me here. Of course we all seek after His righteousness in order to be in His kingdom. And that is the purpose for which He has called us. His "kingdom" ( king's domain or dominion ) speaks of His government, and above all that the Father does, He rules, He governs. And as His children that is what we will do, beginning here on earth. Some might say that they have no inclination or desire to rule or govern over anything, but think about it for a minute. Even now in this flesh we do so, as a father, a mother, an employee, etc. And if nothing else, we even have the limited ability to govern ourselves to a point. No matter what we do, we cannot get around it. Its all about government, always has been and always will be. But in seeking first His Kingdom and His righteousness, we should always remember something so as not to go astray, " the greatest among you will be servant of all "
