—Outside of Time

The Lord is the Lord of time and space. He created it. Somehow, in ways beyond our perception, what we see as future, He sees as now. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that what we see as present, present and future, He sees as ALWAYS. In other words, He hasn’t simply seen the future, He has been there.

The Lord lives in the eternal present. He exists in a non-temporal level. He is the future right now. Or as He said to Moses, “I AM that I AM.”

We use the word eternal in a rather cavalier way, as though we really understand what it means. Actually, we don’t. In fact, we don’t understand eternity anymore than we understand the Creator. The Lord doesn’t just see the future, He is the future. In other words to see the future, you must be the future.
