I don’t pretend to know the mind of God, whose ways are past our finding out. Someone touting physics so, should know better than to ask such a question. It is the essence of relativity. Time is relative to the observer (you and I) and God is not subject to the physics of tiny minds who know only an infinitesimal amount of what there is to know. As a matter of fact, they don’t even know, what there is to be known, that they don’t know.

You observe only the terrestrial, but God the celestial. You state times relative only to your observations. The Creator is not subject to time and knows no time except that which he has used for the understanding of men.

That was brilliant.

I’ve thought for many years that time is something that God created for man’s benefit, so that we can organize our lives.

I had agonized for years over “Which is true, seven days, or a billion years?” Then it occurred to me (revealed I guess) that it could be both, and that our finite minds cannot comprehend “time” as He does.
