Time, a Spiritual Entity in a Material World – In the Beginning (Part 5)
Time is the first thing that God explicitly sanctified.[1] God’s primary sanctuary wasn’t matter (an idol), space (a temple), but time. Matter, space, and time conceptually correspond with body, soul, and spirit.[2] Scripture attests to the difficulty of differentiating between soul and spirit.[3] Time and space are equally intertwined, which is why physicists often refer to them as the space-time continuum.[4] The introduction of time into our universe and spirit into Adam follow a similar pattern.
