Tangent here, but I’ve been wondering if this whole time travel business can show why materialists are far too hasty in denying the reality of the soul.
If I can go back to 1981, then somewhere there has to be a 1981 to go back to. Which means that everyone that was alive in 1981 is actually still alive there, no matter what happened to them subsequently.
Perhaps time is like floating down a river—just because you experience it as a unidirectional motion doesn’t mean the sights you saw along the way cease to exist.
Funny you say that. I call time a current in an ocean called eternity.
I think it was Jesus in the furnace in Daniel and it was Jesus who wrestled with Jacob.
I think the biblical eternity is something other than linear time unending.
