Ecclesiastes 3.1
ECC 3:1 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
ECC 3:2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
ECC 3:3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
ECC 3:4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
ECC 3:5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
ECC 3:6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
ECC 3:7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
ECC 3:8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
ECC 3:9 What does the worker gain from his toil? 10 I have seen the burden God has laid on men. 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. 12 I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live. 13 That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil--this is the gift of God. 14 I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that men will revere him.
ECC 3:15 Whatever is has already been,
and what will be has been before;
and God will call the past to account.
ECC 3:16 And I saw something else under the sun:
In the place of judgment--wickedness was there,
in the place of justice--wickedness was there.
ECC 3:17 I thought in my heart,
"God will bring to judgment
both the righteous and the wicked,
for there will be a time for every activity,
a time for every deed."

God has no concept of time. He created the heaven and the earth in the beginning. Genesis 1: 1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. When was the beginning? There was no 24 hour day, the sun had not been created. When God destroyed the heavens and the earth in the end there will a new heaven and new earth just like created at the beginning. Revelation 21: 1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. Man is different from God we have a time for everything. Ecclesiastes 3: 1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: Ecclesiastes 3: 2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

When I use the word God, I mean whatever enables anything to exist, from pure luck, to the imagination of a previous living mind.
I need no clear idea what God is.
However time is the difference between change, believers of the Big Bang assert that there was no time prior to it, in which case, if God was time, and was always, God wouldn't have been until the big bang.
I do not accept that time did not exist prior to any event, if the event of the big bang happened, something enabled it, and something changed in order for it to happen, therefore I believe time has always been moving towards and beyond the present. I do not mean the time measurement which man uses, which relates to our movement round the sun.
Whatever God is, I believe for it to enable things to be as they are, and as they will be, alongside the concept of time. So the time concept has, like God always been. But time without matter could not be observed, or create anything by itself.
So no I don't believe that time is God, but I could accept that time is part of God.

You are dealing with a very complex subject. There are different sorts of time and it is not a constant. i.e time is affected by speed and gravity. If you make two identical and very accurate clocks (and this has been done) and you put one on top of a mountain and one at sea level then the one closed to earth will go slower because time is slowed down by gravity. Also if the faster you go the slower you age and when they make satelites they have accurate clocks in them but the ones that circle the earth have to have their clocks adjusted every year. Only by about a second but it is still a measurable time difference

This is What I believe
About Wakan Tanka ------- The Creator!!!
Each morning upon rising, and each evening before sleeping, gives thanks for the life within you and for all life, for the good things the Creator has given you and for the opportunity to grow a little more each day. Consider your thoughts and actions of the past day and seek for the courage and strength to be a better person. Seek for the things that will benefit others (everyone).
2. Respect. Respect means "To feel or show honor or esteem for someone or something; to consider the well being of, or to treat someone or something with deference or courtesy". Showing respect is a basic law of life.
3. Once a council has decided something in unity, respect demands that no one speak secretly against what has been decided. If the council has made an error, that error will become apparent to everyone in its own time.
4. Be truthful at all times, and under all conditions.
5. Always treat your guests with honor and consideration. Give of your best food, your best blankets, the best part of your house, and your best service to your guests.
6. The hurt of one is the hurt of all; the honor of one is the honor of all.
7. Receive strangers and outsiders with a loving heart and as members of the human family.
8. All the races and tribes in the world are like the different colored flowers of one meadow. All are beautiful. As children of the Creator they must all be respected.
9. To serve others, to be of some use to family, community, nation, and the world is one of the main purposes for which human beings have been created. Do not fill yourself with your own affairs and forget you’re most important talks. True happiness comes only to those who dedicate their lives to the service of others.
10. Observe moderation and balance in all things.
11. Know those things that lead to your well-being and those things that lead to your destruction.
12. Listen to and follow the guidance given to your heart. Expect guidance to come in many forms; in prayer, in dreams, in times of quiet solitude, and in the words and deeds of wise Elders and friends.
Wahoo!!!

for those who have ever existed and will always exist (extra-creational), time is irrelevant. God is the antithesis to time and a far greater reality than what He has created in mortality. Time is only relevant when counting down to non-existence from a finite beginning.

this is NOT a complex subject. peoples thinking of time has become complex b/c of our culture. all time is is a measure of change. one way we perceive it is by the earth day/year (is there no time on the sun? on other stars). again, time is a measure of change. we cannot see god. we cannot see him change. therefore time has nothing to do with god. simple as that

No God was present at the instant of creation at which time came into being, "I am".

God invented time, He transcends time, and He can't be defined by cliches.
