I’ll just say I don’t think God operates like that. It’s always wise to hesitate before you say God can’t do something. Can God time travel? Could God go back in time and undo something which has already happened? If time can be slowed down, could it be reversed? Some great science fiction stories have been written about time travel. So time is not such a fixed constant that you might think. And time is supposed to almost stop close to a black hole in space.
A person on earth experiences the passage of time differently than a person in space. In the early 1900s, Einstein’s theory of general relativity stated matter and energy affect space and time. What do you want to be doing when time freezes forever?
That’s a rather scary and funny thing to think about. Or perhaps everything would just begin to slow down until everybody would be frozen midstride so to speak, forever stuck at the exact position time ran out of, well, time. Would I arrive at my destination before I left? Would I have to dodge myself going out the door the same time I was going in the door? I wondered how it would be to have time end. The KJV translation is a rather poor one here, the more accurate wording is that there should be “no more delay.” That fits the context better.īut when I first started reading the Bible as a young boy, I didn’t even know of other translations. “And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, And sware by him that liveth forever 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: but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.” Feast of Tabernacles at Echo Bluff State Park
