Ok - has anyone ever thought about time and space in relationship to God? If you turn linear time on its side - sort of like standing up a toothpick - it forms a dot - there is no length - the same is true with time. What if God confronted Adam and Eve in the Garden and forgave them instantly - but stretched out the incident to form time and space? What if He did it to show us how His heart (Son) was broken when we sinned in the Garden and denied it? What if He wanted to teach us how to forgive so we could understand His forgiveness for us?

It suggests a possible explanation for the problem of pain in the world without contradicting Einstein's theory of gravity - space is stretched.

Peace

I have thought of this some and I think I am going the same direction as you as far as Father wanting us to know His forgiveness and mercy through experience so that it is real to us and not just theory or fantasy. I am thinking that you meant Einstein's theory of relativity rather than gravity.
