Here are a few fragments from a great revelation to peruse that may be helpful.
1. The absolute of time is eternity, and time helps us to realize eternal SEQUENCE. The absolute of space is Paradise and space helps us to realize eternal SIMULTANEITY.
2. (on the lowest, 3rd level) In the evolutionary universes eternity is temporal everlastingness -- the everlasting NOW.
3.Time is a fragment of an eternal continuum in Eternity
4. On the absolute and eternal level, potential reality is just as meaningful as actual reality.
5.Time is only the shadow of Eternity cast by Paradise Realities upon the moving panoply of space. This gem, I am trying to comprehend more, over the last thirty years of study of this 2097 page revelation. Your comments are much appreciated.
Eternity is certainly absolute (1st level)
time is certainly (3rd level) supreme
There is a hardly revealed (2nd level) of Eternity qualified - time transcended reality which is called a transcendental or ultimate level.

It is my understanding that time, as experienced by humans, travels in a linear direction, from birth to death. Therefore the concept of eternity and timelessness is rather difficult to grasp for us mere mortals - I suspect that even scientists, mathematicians and astro-physicists struggle with this!
However, as a Christian I believe that the Creator God always has, and alway will, be. Eternity is within a spiritual dimension and cannot be realised till we have no further use for our physical bodies and go home to our heavenly father.
I don't expect to get any thumbs up from all you philosophers - I just hope you don't mind another point of view!

The absolute of time is not eternity, as eternity indicates that which has no beginning and no end-- time has precisely both these qualities. Forevermore and timeless are indications of a temporal reality, as they are conditioned by duration. Eternally and eternity indicate a reality that is beyond our comprehension, a transcendental reality that we know by rational inference and express in analogical terms. Nothing conditioned by temporality can serve as an ultimate reference for what is eternal, and therefore the eternal is often postulated to be a quality of the divine nature.

timeless= something is of ever lasting calue, like a book. eternally= something that will go on for ever and ever,related to eternity. eternity= a physical/philosophical concept meaning time which will never end. forevermore= something like eternity but more on a human scale, like 1000 of years.

Forevermore - starts now and never ends
Timeless - there is no time
Eternally - something that happens inside eternity?
Eternity - as long as time has/will exist

Forevermore is longer time since it is refering to specific time plus adding forever in it.
Timelessness is event in a specific period caught in a frame and never progresses.
Eternally is as far as we can think until when a future can be.
Eternity is a perfume

Well, forevermore and eternity are nouns. Timeless is an adjective, and eternally is an adverb.

Forever means never ending into the future
Timeless means without time, ageless, no ending or beginning
Eternal means never ending, alway will be.
Eternity is a place without end.

Does the concept of infinity give the imagination problems?

Well from what I have been taught in school many, many years ago, these all mean the very same thing, forever and ever.
