I think that as we gain increasing knowledge of science we will come to the conclusion that time is something that God has put us into the realm of (bad grammar!), while He stands on the outside.  We already know that time is one speed on earth and a different rate depending on how far out you go, or how fast you go, or some such thing. (My husband is a sci-fi enthusiast.) God, I think, just stands there and takes all of our chronological lives in at once.  Perhaps that is why He is the same âyesterday, today, and foreverâ? Izzy

This may be at the center of the changeless God.   Look at what is attached to "time."  Aging, enthusiasm, health, passions of all kinds, memories and attractions to name only a few.  Time is the friend of temptation and sin  --  we swear we won't do "that again," but in time we do.   In this life, God grants us the beginnings of a new nature - one that will fit into a timeless world of success and freedom and glory.  His sacrifice is "once and for all time" proving it to be eternal, the product of an infinite God.
