nothing, not even space-time, exists "outside" the universe. space-time itself originated in the big bang. the name is misleading. it was not an explosion of matter in never-ending space. space-time is finite yet has no edge and no center. it is four-dimensional, but if you can imagine a two-dimensional version then it seems to be something like the surface of a sphere. the big bang was the entire universe, and everywhere in the universe was once the big bang.

It seems right to say God is beyond this universe as the Creator Lord of all the universes. Nothing can contain God in His entirety, so the universe is continually expanding.
We could say that time contains all the universe at this moment, all that is in it is contained in the time it exists. God is beyond time.
This is not to say God did not come in space and time to earth. He did in His Son, Jesus or Yeshua, if you prefer.
Jesus said "I go to prepare a place for you that where I am, you may be also." and "In my Father's house are many mansions." (John 14) Space is spacy and it is fun to try to comprehend the incomprehensible, but when it comes down to it, I like to be at home wherever I am. I'm glad God wants us to live with him forever. The mortal shall be swallowed up in the immortal. Swallowing is kind of like those black holes. We don't know if this physical realm ever relates to the spiritual, but some day we may. "It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, but the honor of kings to search it out." (Proverbs 25 or 26:1)
Thanks for the thought probe.

There is a theory in quantum psychics that says there are lots of universes and each of us are in everyone of them. But everything for us is different in each one, like things in our history were different causing different present times in each. Also they think our universe started when the membrane between each one bumped again each other.
Quantum Physics also says that there are allot of things going on around you at the same time, but you only see what your looking for basically.

There really is no way of know... Its the realm of science fiction and philosophy.

more space and more universes, and possibly other life forms
