Genesis 1:

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
According to Einstein's special relativity. One cannot isolate time from space. The universe is a 4-D spacetime structure. When we look deep into space, we are looking back in time. The Andromeda Galaxy is the most distant object we can see with our naked eyes, two million light years away. If God had created space, that automatically included time as well.

Since God created time, God exists outside of time, Ephesians 4:

10 He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.
Isa. 46:

10a declaring the end from the beginning
and from ancient times things not yet done,
This is an incredible statement. Only God can say it truthfully in the absolute sense. It shows the speaker of a being standing outside of the space-time dimensions. He saw the totality of the 4-dimensional space-time sequence. According to General Relativity, space and time are affected simultaneously by gravity. Different people in different gravitational fields will experience the passage of time differently. With the Webb telescope, we can observe past events in the universe. God can see the past and the future. God has seen the entire sequence of all space-time events being played out.

Jeremiah 1:

5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
Does space-time go on to infinity?

John 6:

40 For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.
What will happen to time after the last day?

Then, the nature of time will change to eternality.

Good inquiry. Your on the right track with Einstein's relativity and the nature of Two. One or the Monad is considered as the un-comprehencable God simply because there is nothing else to comprehend it. From the Monad was born the Duad or simply Two. Two is what the Hebrews and Christians call the Logos. There are "two" forms of the Logos also because there are two forms of "reason". There is deductive reason which holds the essence of creation and time and there is also inductive reason which is the polaric opposite.

Thanks for the references. To save the effort of your readers, this is how to do referencing in a scholarly manner:
  1. Give the source/citation.
  2. Provide the URL link to the source if available.
  3. Indent the quoted text.
  4. Bold the relevant keywords that are important to the point that you are making.
  5. Be concise and to the point.
This is what I do for others who read my posts. It is a standard high-school scholarship. If you practice this, I guarantee you it will improve your analytical thinking. In any case, no one is required to do it here.

No it doesn't because the universe is finite. There is no infinity in the material realm.
Clues are in scripture

Hebrews 11:
3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.../KJV

Or in other words, the things that we can see in this world are made from microscopic things that we can not see.

They proved that the universe is not infinite. For infinity to be true it would have to be true in both the microcosm and the macrocosm and it isn't true. They tried to cut something in half and then they had two halves. They cut one half in half again and took one of those remaining halves and cut it in half again. now in infinity theory you could continue to do this and the piece would simply keep getting smaller. But it didn't. When the reached iirc it was like 20 to the 42nd negative? That when the cut it, the matter lost locality rather than getting smaller. So we do live in a finite universe.

The kosmos, being born directly from God is eternal. Man, being born from the Kosmos is not eternal.

Nothing really dies tho. Everything "in its essence" is eternal.
