The eternal God has created the universe. And that universe is
time-bound. How can we best understand God's relationship with our
time-bound universe? For example, does God experience each moment
of time in succession or are all times present to God? How we think
of God and time has implications for our understanding of the
nature of time, the creation of the universe, God's knowledge of
the future, God's interaction with his creation and the fullness of
God's life. In this book, four notable philosophers skillfully take
on this difficult topic--all writing from within a Christian
framework yet contending for different views. Paul Helm argues that
divine eternity should be construed as a state of absolute
timelessness. Alan G. Padgett maintains that God's eternity is more
plausibly to be understood as relative timelessness. William Lane
Craig presents a hybrid view that combines timelessness with
omnitemporality. And Nicholas Wolterstorff advocates a doctrine of
unqualified divine temporality. Each essay is followed by responses
from the other three contributors and a final counter-response from
the original essayist, making for a lively exchange of ideas.
Editor Gregory E. Ganssle provides a helpful introduction to the
debate and its significance. Together these five scholars conduct
readers on a stimulating and mind-stretching journey into one of
the most controversial and challenging areas of theology today.
