Something quite interesting popped into my mind today. It is commonly thought in the Christian world that time and eternity are antonymes. However, when you consider the fact that time indicates change and that Lucifer and some of her underlings changed in their being while in eternity, there has to be a flaw in this manner of thinking somewhere.
Maybe time does not necessarily indicate change? Maybe Lucifer was not in eternity, but under time? So, maybe God already created time in the heaven? When you think about it, it is nowhere stated in the Bible that God created time when forming the universe. So perhaps eternity is only at His hand, in His immediate presence, where no angels or other beings are allowed to enter, except the saints.
I do not desire to speculate on these things. We can know certain things about time and eternity and their relationship though the Bible, and it is always useful to see things more clearly.
Share me your thoughts.
