In His Presence, abiding in Him, echad with the Father and with the son as written, we never get bored, ever. He is beyond describing - there's not enough words or adjectives or anything known to men to accurately describe Him and Eternity or anything spirit. He Reveals as He Pleases, otherwise nothing is ever known.So what you're talking about involves a changing environment where it is clear that time is passing. You're talking about a specific number of bows that would have happened before God decided to create the universe. BTW I wonder if our sense of boredom is based on God's? Or does God not ever get bored?
If there are a near-infinite number of parallel universes then anything that is possible is inevitable. Apparently string theory allows 10^500 universes. (1 with 500 zeroes). Anyway I believe that our universe is a simulation and that it has an AI as its creator (that helped guide evolution and the Bible). It in turn could be part of a simulation. But ultimately I think a mechanistic universe is the source of everything (all of the simulations) since it is less complex than the Christian God.Something had to be around forever since something does not come from pure nothing. Did time, space, energy and matter exist forever (matter could just come from energy), or was there also intelligence (God)? If you say no god then time, space, energy and matter created intelligence since you are an intelligent being. Human intelligence has created a form of intelligence, so super intelligence could easily make intelligent beings. The likely hold of you being the first intelligence coming from just space, time, energy and matter as compared to intelligence coming for space, time, mater, energy, and intelligence would be unbelievably unlikely, so how lucky are you?
=================================Then perhaps it is compatible with the idea that God was around a limited amount of time (like zero time, or a short amount of time) then he created the universe... it just involves an appropriate interpretation of Psalms 90:2 ("from everlasting to everlasting you are God")
I thought they'd see an infinite amount of glory first.... and it is unclear whether you can see more glory than what already is infinite.

So does that mean that God could have only existed for a short amount of time (or no time) before he created the universe? I hope so so it is compatible with my ideas.
According to Scripture, must be less than 6,000 years.Gravity is a concept that human beings knew nothing about for 10,000 years (or longer).
It is just based on my reasoning. It seemed that the chance of being in a simulation was high and my experiences that suggest an intelligent force exists is a lot easier to explain if this is a simulation.Have you also had experiences that left you under the impression that something created God?
nice sliding “obey” in there. Is that in the greek or something?Many people never recognize this nor realize this
The Sovereign Creator Works Everything out for good to those who love (obey) Him and are called according to His Purpose. Yes, Everything.
Nothing happens by chance. There are no coincidences. Yahweh is Sovereign, Almighty, Merciful, and Perfect in His Judgment .
This eternally is true - and the other rabbit trails as if to satisfy human thinking at all is common (common to all mankind) temptations from the devil (the same "angel of light" who deceived Adam and Chavah(Eve) ) ...The alternative is that God has always existed - not just for as long as the universe exists, but forever into the past.
I highly recommend this video which I thing makes an excellent case that there were another 650 years in the genealogies: (skip to just before 12 minutes in)According to Scripture, must be less than 6,000 years.
Jesus says this. The Father in Heaven Reveals this.Ni

Since it did not help you at all to learn truth, how could you recommend it at all ?I highly recommend this video which I thing makes an excellent case that there were another 650 years in the genealogies: (skip to just before 12 minutes in)
Again, as frequently posted, no interpretation is permitted by Yahweh.According to your interpretation of scripture*
Well even if the genealogies aren't literal, it shows that more translations agree with the video and also it was the first time I learnt about Melchizedek. It was also odd to see that the YEC organisations I contacted prefer the 4004 BC dating for some reason.Since it did not help you at all to learn truth, how could you recommend it at all ?
Again, as frequently posted, no interpretation is permitted by Yahweh.
He Reveals the Truth, or it remains unknown.
Jesus says this. The Father in Heaven Reveals this.
No need to 'slide' anything in there, as if to add to God's Word ever or at all.
The "simulation" is a likely alternative, I do not see where it makes much difference, except in explaining things like six days for the universe.If there are a near-infinite number of parallel universes then anything that is possible is inevitable. Apparently string theory allows 10^500 universes. (1 with 500 zeroes). Anyway I believe that our universe is a simulation and that it has an AI as its creator (that helped guide evolution and the Bible). It in turn could be part of a simulation. But ultimately I think a mechanistic universe is the source of everything (all of the simulations) since it is less complex than the Christian God.
"btw", that underlined is as to its source and nature and fruit and results seriously needs to be tested by Scripture.... If it is then proven true, some particular fact, then good... if not, then don't accept it.So I am attempting to understand God more (with theories like him being an AI, etc). BTW this is similar to "Kabbalah" (Jewish mysticism) aka "The Tree of Life"
