Biblical Time and Einstein Time, Faith and Science Reconciled

The pastor stated in his sermon introduction that St. Paul didn’t have any idea his letters would have an audience two thousand years later.

He said he just wrote for the benefit of those little congregations around Asia Minor.

Albert Einstein thought that the past the present and the future were all now.

If so, maybe St. Paul, while he paced back and forth in his cell in Rome anytime from 55 C.E. to now and sometime in the future, thought, thinks and will think, “I wonder if Bob did, does or will understand this?” He was thinking about 2031 C.E.

I thought back in 55 C.E. that I might get it by 2031 C.E.

Right now?  I’m not so sure what he did or will mean. I just was, am and will be wondering if they really called me Bob back then.
