Answer 1

Sort of...we're living an endless stream of nows. The past exists only in our memory (memory has no physical existence) and the future exists in our consciousness (also no physical existence). But I suspect you know all this. Peace to you.

Answer 2

If you really want to know more about this, go and read books about Quantum physics and Relativity. I can recommend In Search of Schrodinger's Cat: Quantum Physics And Reality and Schrodinger's Kittens and the Search for Reality : Solving the Quantum Mysteries by John Gribbin.
You will see that the future affects the past as much as the past affects the future. So, the past is NOT really gone, and the future is actually here. Time is not a stream.

Answer 3

"I’ll wait until I am old, then I’ll get right with God."

You may not get the chance. God may just lose patience with you and end your life. Perhaps you don’t think He would do such a thing. Then read Genesis 38:7 to see how God killed a man who was wicked. Jesus told of a man who boasted that he had so many goods that he would have to build bigger barns. God called the man a fool and took his life that night.

Those who say they will repent in their own time lack the fear of God. Their understanding of His nature is erroneous. If they caught a glimpse of His holiness, His righteousness, and His consuming justice, they wouldn’t trifle with His mercy. Such arrogance needs to be confronted with the thunders of Mount Sinai. He is not wise who thinks he can outwit his Creator, enjoy a lifetime of sin, and repent at the last minute. Deathbed repentance is very rare. God killed a husband and wife because they told a lie (Acts 5:1–10). He lost patience with them. Most people think that God’s patience is eternal. It evidently is not.

The Bible says that it is through the fear of the Lord that men depart from sin (Proverbs 16:6). If they don’t fear God, they will be complacent about their eternal salvation (Matthew 10:28).

Answer 4

I agree that our past is gone and the future's not here. But our todays are definitely not endless. We only have the moment we are in. One day there you are, whistling, smiling, thinking oh, boy, hunky-dorey ... the next, you are gone and they are emptying out your house. And you missed it.

This is why it is SO IMPORTANT to be happy in life, make your peace and grab those brass rings. Live the life that makes your heart sing and keeps you healthy.

Answer 5

I always feel like we are living an endless Yesterday. Only because history repeats itself and I am frequently thinking of the correlations between today and "yesterday". Life cycles, don't you think?

Answer 6

The past is gone, the future is yet to be revealed, today is the only moment we have..it is a gift...which is why we call it the "present". When we are in heaven..it is the only time in which we shall truly comprehend timelessness.

Answer 7

There is no such thing as a future.

There is only Past and Present.

The future is just a illusion. A very good one I'll say. lol

Answer 8

IT's CALLED MOMENT by MOMENT
GOD is literally CREATING each MOMENT, that's what keep's HIM so busy on the THRONE!!!!!! The closer you get (shorter time interval) to the exact time that HE create's a moment, the closer you get to HIS POWER!!!!!!
Been there once(close) don't want to go back, TOO MUCH POWER, and HE dosen't need any help running this thing(UNIVERSE). Don't think about it too long, the devil will try to run you crazy with it!!!!!!! Your welcome.

Answer 9

No, yesterday is gone, tomorrow is yet to come, so I'll today in the present God has given me.

Answer 10

Have you ever analyzed time? I realize that the past second I spent can never be captured again. It's gone.
