Hi, my name is John, known here as the ReformedDoc. I am disabled & living in a long term care facility where I only receive $106 a month. The facility receives my disability payments for my room, board & medical care. I was a pastor for 10 years working with the Salvation Army in their Adult Rehabilitation Centers. Afterwards I worked with a mental health & addictions center running & overseeing several of their recovery houses. Due to my health I had to retire early which was not easy. I am writing this to ask for some financial help/support because the $106 I get don’t even cover the bills I acquired before moving here. If you can help I would greatly appreciate it. May the Lord bless you all! Venmo - John - Koontz - 4 paypal.me/ReformedDoc

I appreciate you taking the time to reply and share the diagram, it's clear you've put time into this. However, I don't think my view disagrees with Scripture; I believe it helps make better sense of it. One logical tension I see in saying "Before the eons there was no spacetime": "Before" is itself a temporal word. It assumes a sequence of moments. If God deliberated, planned (Ephesians 1:4, 2 Timothy 1:9, etc.), or even simply "was" in distinct ways prior to creating, that implies succession in His experience, which is what we mean by time. God isn't bound by our physics, but that doesn't mean His life is a static, timeless block with zero duration or change. God upholds all things moment by moment (Heb 1:3, Col 1:17). He enables change, succession, and "nows." We're riding in the clock He sustains, not the other way around.

A tough pill to swallow 😒
