11
lareli:
Consider this... When the clock reads 11:11 it is only 11:11 in that specific time zone. It's not 11:11 at anywhere else at that moment. And so also it is 11:11 every single hour at somewhere in the world.
I know that as far back as biblical times there was reference to time in the references of "..at about the 3rd hour" and such... But "Time" is a relatively recent construct of man at least as far as clocks and watches go. Anyone know when the first clock (not sun dial) was created and or used in a fairly universal capacity? When were 'seconds' and 'minutes' instituted?

Considering that God has years, i don't see time being a 'recent man made' construct, institution, or anything for that matter nor do I see God being outside of it.
God bless,

I said 'at least as far as clocks and watches go'.
And I don't see God being outside of anything.

I once, many years ago saw 11:11 so often that I started to research it, and guess what? It brought me to Bible Truths .......the Lord works in many mysterious ways. To me 11:11 is a blessing and every time I see it, it reminds me of our Lord, It puts a smile on my face and I (pray) & have a great conversation with Him :)
