God does not measure time,
by the amount of times,
the earth revolves around the sun.

but He has determined for us how we should measure time, from day to night, and from season to season:


And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven
to divide the day from the night;
and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years

(Genesis 1:14)

God does measure time and he has equated our time to his time.

2Pe_3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

He is from everlasting to everlasting, I AM, the beginning and end, without beginning or end. not confined by time, having created time, ordained it, and set us in it.

teach us to number our days
that we may get a heart of wisdom.

(Psalm 90:12)

the heavens and the earth are His, and His creation, and time itself is His, His creation.

He changes times and seasons

(Daniel 2:21)

He doesn't "measure time as we do" only in the sense that His days are not numbered as ours are.
but He is certainly able to tell us His times and seasons in a language we understand.
the thing is, He teaches us in parables, so that those who do not have ears to hear, do not hear, and those that do, hear and understand.
this is how anyone who understood the prophets could know exactly when the captivity would end, and exactly when the Messiah would come.

Alright, you change it, to what you like, then post it for me,
and we will go from there.
I did... biblical truth :) I was referring to the underlined bold part, if that was not clear.

Grace and truth came through Jesus Christ according to John the Apostle. My interpretation of the sacred scripture is not the truth, and I would not expect your interpretation to be anymore truthful than mine.

That God is outside the time continuum we find ourselves in is evident by his sacred word, which knows the end from the beginning. The Holy Spirit dwells with us in the time space reality we find ourselves in, and so we have confidence that God is, and he has not left us to perish in this world without hope of salvation.

You speak of many dimensions within this existence that you are claiming to understand and I am sure many here would like to know what you believe about these things. What is your understanding about "the seven spirits of God"?

I hope you are not heading for a "Job moment", but I fear you are close.

just a thought.

Do not ever assume, what I believe.
I will tell you exactly,
what I believe.
God is a Spirit.
There are Seven Spirits of God.

True (I believe this) or false (I do not believe this)?
OK then tell us what you believe on the statement "I am" instead of us trying to guess

Are you trying to prove, something I said, is false? Yes or no?

Introduction

GOD,

Jesus Christ,

The Seven Spirits of God,

The Spirit Realm, The Creation of God,

The Kingdom of God, The Kingdom of Satan,

The Children of God, The children of Satan,

Dimensions, Angels,
Satan, Fallen Angels, Devils,

Demons, Nephilim,
Giants, Aliens, The Bible,

The Book of Enoch, The Book of Revelation,

The Books of the Prophets of God.

Hell, The Lake of Fire, The World to come.

The New Heaven, The New Earth.

There are many things, being taught and preached,
on the internet, such as Youtube, on the so called Christian internet forums
and in the so called Christian Churches and on the so called Christian television networks,
and other media outlets, pertaining to these subjects.

The majority of it, is incorrect. Therefore contributing greatly,
to the chaos and confusion, that has overwhelmed and beset and divided
the people among themselves, who refer to themselves as Christians,
here on earth at this present day in time.


I will attempt, to teach, those of you, who want to learn, what I have said, as the truth.
I will debate, those of you, who want to prove, what I have said, to be false.

BGCT the Hereafter and All in Between

I will take a pass on your generous offer.

I have already stated what I believe, concerning this you have asked me.
You can read it in post 10, on the first page of this thread.

Not the Bible? The Bible is truth the Word of God! If you rely on truth coming from something other than the Bible then not much anyone can do. You all have fun here I am done!

You have contradicted that which is written in the bible.


John, Chapter 16, 13: Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth,
is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself;
but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak:
and he will show you things to come.

Therefore by your own words,
have testified to us that you ,
yourself do not believe everything,
written in the bible.

It would be best for your sake to stop posting on this thread,
because the more you say, the more
you will be proved to be false.

Funny. You just used the Bible as truth yet you don't do that. Correct?

Will you use The Bible? And no from that statement I underlined or any of your post, it was not clear. First of all, I don't know you so I can not assume what your source of truth is. Secondly, The Bible does bear truth so don't dismiss it as if all your knowledge comes from the "Spirit of Truth". Lastly, I don't appreciate your condescending reply as I was genuinely curious about your thread.

2 Timothy 3:
15 and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16 [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] [/FONT]All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; 17 so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.

do you understand what i said, yes or no?


Time,
What is time?
time is an experientially quasi-linear & causal ordering of relative spatial arrangements of all the matter and energy in the universe.

near as i can tell, he's writing his own 'bible' starting with before Genesis 1:1.
he'd like you to be in awe of his wisdom and spiritual knowledge.
i think in this case it's only natural to be confused.


am sure he'll correct me if am wrong. i suspect he'll correct me if i'm right, too.

:)
