Time is influenced by gravity. Einstein had a theory about it but could not prove it. Later other physicists were able to prove this. The physicality of time has never been proven.

I believe it would be better to state it is a dimension rather than property. That is the way I was taught and understand it. Time has been proven to change with velocity.
I missed the part of the one who created time. God did. It seems that in the spiritual world, before the creation, time had no meaning. Time is the measure of movement in the physical universe.

Actually, by some interpretations Einstein proved the opposite.
In antiquity, scholars debated the nature of time and its relation to motion. A key idea in this regard was Zeno's Arrow. Another example includes Antiphon the Sophist who stated that "time is not a reality but a concept, or a measure". St. Augustine pondered the nature of time in his Confessions.
The nature of time as a physical dimension was a natural by-product of modern scientific thought which sought explanations of the world through quantification. Because of the undeniable link in the concepts of motion and time, scientists used a physical notion of time in their study although most would admit that the instrinsic nature of time is unknown.
In more recent times scientists have begun to understand time as something "unreal" (really, non-physical or perceptional) at its core but with physical manifestations that are measurable.
Einstein's contribution was to demonstrate that the nature of time, and its link to space/matter/energy was dependent on one's frame of reference. In my opinion, this contributes to the notion that time has a non-physical/perceptional component.
The truth is that we will never know the nature of time since we exist within its confines. This is one of those transcendent concepts that are so intimately linked to the human experience that we cannot measure its nature, only its effects.

i did not here that but would like to know more... as for time.. i think that the idea of time being the 4th dimension does not fit with the nature of the other dimensions... let us wait for anew dimension when the universe folds on itself creating a forth physical dimension and see if time would still exist to become the fifth...

Time has always been a physical property of the 4th dimension.

True.
So if the earth was created while traveling at a sufficient speed, it could indeed have been a mere 6 days. I hadn't thought of that. Hmph.

Einstein demonstrated the relationship between time and matter and its relationship in regards to velocity.

Einstein did not "...mathematically prove that time is a physical property." Time is also not a dimension of space; space is a higher Reality than time, as perceived by (even higher) Personality.
The Absolute of time is Eternity (not physical; a part of God's Infinite Spirit Personal will)
The Absolute of space is Paradise (the Infinite-Absolute elliptic, symmetrical Pattern of All Reality)
The Absolute of You is GOD (God's perfect "spirit plus" Essence of God is now within you; destined to fuse with you as personality and soul and to become (much later) the Perfect, Final, 7th-stage Spirit You as an Eternal Son of God ! By then, the present and necessary space and time restrictions upon you here will be all removed. Paradise Residence is both timeless and spaceless. Paradise is also in the center of each and every smallest, ultimate sub-atomic partices (soon to be discovered, maybe in 50 years or less)
Eventually we will also serve in doing God's will in an infinite and seven dimensional Spiritual-Intellectual-
Patterned Force Cosmos.
As most here know, human men and human women are very different, and are attracted to each other. This plan of needed cooperation will continue even up on the highest Heaven of infinite Paradise. There the space transcendence of a Spirit-perfected "female Human" nature" Son of God will eternally join with the time transcendence of a Spirit-perfected "male Human" nature Son of God to conjointly achieve together as One a full space and time Transcendence. (roughly in about one trillion more years of spiritual Ascension; be patient)
This Divine "Marriage Pattern" is now perfectly Realized in our Universe Creator Father-Son Jesus Christ Who in HimSelf transcends time; He is fully United/Joined with our Universe Mother Creative Spirit (aka "Bride of Christ") Who in HerSelf transcends space. (now peruse again John ch 16 and ch 17 in new comprehensions ! Wonderful !)
There are four NECESSARY LIMITATIONS placed by our Sovereign Creator Father-Son Jesus Christ and his Coordinate Creative Spirit Partner upon all mankind starting out here on Earth in the Eternal Ascending-Perfecting Plan of God for each of us:
1. fear (easiest to overcome now as wisdom increases)
2. hunger (was food, now more power, sex, curiosity, spiritual)
3. time (needed to teach us Eternal SEQUENCE)
4. space (needed to teach us Eternal SIMULTANEITY)
If any here need much more Revelation about Reality, time, space, God, Universe, Mankind, etc., email me.
Peace and progress,
Brother Dave, a Jesusonian Truthist

No. In fact, there is no compelling reason to think that time even 'exists', apart from human consciousness.
