God's Time

I have been considering for a long time that time may not be sequential in God’s economy. Apparently I am not alone: “But the imposition of linear time on what is an eternal idea is what creates the contradiction. I don’t try to make a theologian out of Einstein, but he did show us that events that happen in sequence can also be events that happen simultaneously. If Einstein can imagine that in terms of physics, theologians can imagine it also in terms of the intrusion of eternity into linear time—that we are both immediately raised and raised together.” —Thomas G. Long (Candler School of Theology). It also indicates that it is never "too late" to pray.
