Hello

One would have to first define the construct of time and assume that definition firstly is correct and secondly can have an affect on and not just constrain His ability to manipulate what we know to be His own creation. It becomes necessary to take into account what the effect the timelessness of who He is and know completely what He has built into the laws He has created.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1
"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty." Revelation 1:8
And the four living creatures, each one of them having six wings, are full of eyes around and within; and day and night they do not cease to say, "HOLY, HOLY, HOLY is THE LORD GOD, THE ALMIGHTY, WHO WAS AND WHO IS AND WHO IS TO COME." Revelation 4:8
God is the creator of Laws, and this is why when He speaks it happens. You might be able to come up with an analogy that would even describe this. PC folks might think of it in a programmers lingo, while other areas of the mechanical might use other terminology, science defines different ones as well physics and the list goes on and on. However, the functionality might be different but they all accomplish a predetermined task/function. Push button, turn key, hit enter, scientific definitions, etc.
So will My word be which goes forth from My mouth;It will not return to Me empty,Without accomplishing what I desire,And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it. Isaiah 55:11
Agreed. As long as one remembers that how things turn out are within the framework that God has created. That is why one can easily ascribe the Bible as being "Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth". :wink:
With the Love of Christ Jesus.
