Some translations say that the Christ is the Lamb slain from the foundation of the earth, others word it a little differently. Now, was this Lamb slain from the foundation...or before...the foundation of the earth, or was He slain in time? This happened in time. The bible can aver this because of the surety of His word. It will not be altered. Just like our being justified. We were not justified from eternity past, but the bible can speak of it in past tense due to the surety of what it avers. We were elected in eternity past, and in time, both election and justification, took place.
