Time means Nothing to God — Oh Really?
Another point I would like to make, John, is that time means nothing to God.
2 Peter 3:8 — “Dear friends, don’t let this one thing escape you: With the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.”
I have studied many types of prophecy and I have come to the conclusion that interpretation of prophecy is speculation at best. So, yes, call me a skeptic.
For example, as John was in “the last hour” so are we (1 John 2:18). The last hour is timeless…. Remember the Bible was written not as man thinks but as God the Father thinks…..
My Response:
I must disagree. God created time for us to use (see Gen. 1:14f). And He speaks to us throughout his Word in time language that we can readily and easily understand.
Your stretching of “the last hour” to being 19-plus-centuries-and-counting long – IMO — is absurd.
Rather, I subscribe to timely and precise fulfillment of all end-time prophecies, and certainly not a prolonged delay of any (per Heb. 10:37).
But what do you think?
