PREACHER OF ETERNAL NOW DOCTRINE: Sa Diyos, sabay na nangyayari na ikaw ay patay at ikaw ay buhay, simultaneously.
Reformed : God is not physically in the future. Only the knowledge of God is complete and he has perfect understanding of the future, to the point that he can derive emotions out of future events that he had decreed to happen before the world began. It has not yet happened, yet in God's perspective, it is AS IF, IT has already happened.
Adam’s time is past in human perspective, but in God's perspective, it is as FRESH in his mind, as if it has just happened a while ago. In the distant eternity before creation however, this future event of Adam's fall is something that he has seen, he has experienced, he has responded to perfectly.
ONE THING THAT SHOULD BE CLARIFIED BY THE ETERNAL NOW PROPONENT. Do you mean to say, the future in God's eyes is presently and continuously happening at the same time as the past and the present, which is also continuously happening in his sight?
If God beholds the future to the point that he is experiencing the whole future, then it is no longer future, in the estimation of God, it is past. How can we say it is eternal now, if it has already happened in the eyes of God? How can something be eternally occurring?
