TextAugustine of Hippo wrote that time exists only within the created universe, so that God exists outside time; for God there is no past or future, but only an eternal present; this, of course, would require God to exist only outside the present universe. One need not believe in God in order to hold this concept of eternity: for example[original research?], an atheist mathematician can maintain the philosophical tenet that numbers and the relationships among them exist outside time, and so are in that sense eternal.
God create the time to give us this great opportunity,to live this great adventure that is Life.
God knows nothing of time

Seeing, tasting, touching, smelling and hearing all occur now, presently. It is God who does all this, he can do it no other time because there is no other time. Past and future have never been experienced ever.
It is not that God lives outside time, humans are delusional, humans believe all sorts of things that are not true.edit on 26-12-2011 by Itisnowagain because: (no reason given)
That..............is like the branches of a tree,is instant observation and communication,beyond our understanding.

Yes,but when we look at the stars we can see the the past and the future,in the same time.
Time appears presently.
Life without God is like Earth without water,if you look around you you can see the harmony of the Nature and the Nature is in harmony with God and the Universe.
so they argued no God
Up to the star that just appeared,the journey's long and so for thousands years it's light carried to reach us here.
when are you looking at the stars and when are you seeing them?
