me: God's opinion is the only one that counts

you: And what is his opinion?

I should have used a better word than "opinion" because God alone knows and speaks objective truth. Indeed, a thing is true because He says it, e.g. "Let there be light..."

God's word as it concerns time and Who He IS is revealed by His declared Name, I AM.

And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. – Exodus 3:14

Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. - John 8:58

As soon then as he had said unto them, I am [he], they went backward, and fell to the ground. – John 18:6

Remember the former things of old: for I [am] God, and [there is] none else; [I am] God, and [there is] none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times [the things] that are not [yet] done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: - Isaiah 46:9-10

I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. - Revelation 1:8

I explain this by saying that time is part of the Creation and not a property of or restriction on the Creator of it.

The Creator is the first cause and the final cause. His Name is I AM Alpha and Omega. He is the Creator ex nihilo.

Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. - Hebrews 11:3

Based on our previous discussions, I fully expect you to deny His Name I AM and further to say that I am reading things into those passages.

Frankly, kosta50, I don’t care what you think but if you wish to post your denials, go right ahead.

My testimony is that God is not a hypothesis. He lives. His Name is I AM. I’ve known Him for a half century and counting.

By the way, “The Lord” is the translation of the Hebrew YHvH which means “He IS.”

Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and [that] no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. –I Corinthians 12:3

Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. – Psalms 91:4

To God be the glory, not man, never man.

Frankly, kosta50, I don’t care what you think but if you wish to post your denials, go right ahead.

You said "God's opinion" and I asked you what is his opinion. I thought it strange that someone like you (based on your previous posts) would make such a statement. That's all. There was no denial of any type in that question.

By the way, “The Lord” is the translation of the Hebrew YHvH which means “He IS.”

No, it means the Existence, just as the Greek equivalent ΟΩΝ. There is no gender or person in it.
