On God and Time..............................
2 Peter 3 says that;
that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
We can see here that God's time (according to the bible), is much different than our time.
Hosea 6:2 says; " After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight"
This is the way many of the scriptures refer "God's time" in millinea as days....
This may have much more scientific significance than being just a type or pattern for understanding the scriptures.
Einstein said in his "Realitivity" theory that Space-Time "curves" around gravitational sources............so that Time in an area of space well outside of any gravitational effects (perhaps outside of our solar system, or even outside of the spiral effects of our galaxy), would move at a much faster rate, making someone viewing people on a planet from that perspective appear to be frozen in time........motionless.
Here is a quote from a man I believe after 20 years of study, fullfilled all of God's requirements for being a prophet, and whose completely supernatural ministry of un-parrallelled miracles and wonders until his death in 1965 is still a controversial topic, even among those who don't take Him to be one.
From a Sermon by William Branham, titled "Christ revealed in His own Word" preached 8-22-1965..............(paragraph 63)

"
And they're going to find out someday that they're not seeing a hundred and fifty million years of light space either; they're going right around in a circle. That's exactly. You're going to find out one of these days that when you go to heaven, you don't fly off somewhere else; you're still right here too, just in another dimension faster then this"
Compare that to what Einstein said.
Science has determined that our physical bodies are made up of the same 16 elements that the earth is made from.
The bible says man was made from the "dust of the earth"
It also says that "Flesh and Blood cannot inheirit the kingdom of heaven"
Notice also how the bible refers to those who have received the Spirit of God, as having been "Quickened".
Could it be............that a "celestial body", such as those in the "dimension" of heaven, may not be subject to the gravitational time effects as our mortal bodies are, making them able to exist right here but in another dimension faster than this, because for one reason........ they may not be made from the same 16 elements, or "the dust of the earth"....?
Just a thought.
