- “While I agree with Nick that God has a history, I deny that God’s time can be measured by our space-time. Instead space-time is created by God. This implies that God is beyond the space-time of our universe. So Nick is wrong to suggest that theologians are interested in a timeless God simply because they believe God cannot change in any way. Just as important, I believe, is the idea of time as a created category of existence. I am seeking here to honor the intuition, shared by many if not most traditional theologians over the centuries, that God must in some sense transcend time since he created time.”— Padgett, A. G.
