Hi Roger,
Well I really don't see how time can stop at one point, event horizon of a black hole, and continue on everywhere else. I know it's just a theory, but doesn't sound right to me.
I don't think Ray was speaking of a 'fourth dimension,' he was speaking of the here and now, in the physical, but beyond as well. Time is not a substance or a thing, but a relation between things, the relation between changes in things. I think you could say that time is the measure of change in the physical world now, but will continue as we move beyond the physical.
I haven't read this transcript in quite a while and there is much to be gained from it.

Psa 102:25 …and the heavens [are] the work of Your (Comment: This is speaking of God.) hands.
v. :26 They shall perish (Comment: What? The heavens and the earth.), but You shall endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shall You change them, and they shall be changed:
v. 27 But You [art] the same, and Your years shall have no end.
Didn’t we read from both of these people (being discussed in this study) that when the creation is done away with that there will be no time? When there is no sun will there be years? No? “All of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shall You change them, and they shall be changed: But You [art] the same, and Your YEARS shall have no end.” “Shall have” present progressive into the future, “no end.”
Didn’t J. Preston Eby say that the way to tell if the Bible is talking about something that continues, the Bible uses the phrase “no end?’ I read that right at the beginning, he knows that. Here’s one that says, the years of God. You say, ‘well it’s talking about spiritual years.’ It doesn’t matter, he uses the word “years, shall have no end.” Who you going to believe the Bible or theologians, Christian ministers.
Luke 1:33 …and of His kingdom there shall be no end.
Now it doesn’t say what about the kingdom, it just says “of the kingdom.” Whatever pertains to the kingdom will have “no end.”
Let’s go to Proverbs next. This is the one I used at the conference. Remember I had all of those words; processes, events, happenings, changing and remember they used them all interchangeably... all this has to do with the physical universe and time, has nothing to do before or after the creation. Wrong paleface.
Pro 8:22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of His way, BEFORE His works of old.
"Before"… ‘You mean some-time before?’ Well yea, I would think sometime before.
Pro 8:23 I was set up from everlasting (aonian), from the beginning, or ever (That means before) the earth was.
