The eternal God has created the universe. That universe is time-bound. How, then, should we best understand God's relationship with our time-bound universe? 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. Four notable philosophers skillfully take on this difficult topic, all from within a Christian framework yet contending for different views. Paul Helm presents the divine timeless eternity view. Alan G. Padgett contends for a model of eternity as relative timelessness. William Lane Craig offers the timelessness and omnitemporality view while Nicholas Wolterstorff argues for the God of time position.
