Is time an attribute of God?

Please provide biblical support for your answer.

@LawyerRichNC @Unshakablewapr Lastly, suggesting that benefiting from something creates an obligation to withhold criticism is moralized silencing tactic, not an argument.

[Rick Caldwell @RickLCaldwell]

@LawyerRichNC @Unshakablewapr Secondly, a platform’s existence does not prove the ultimate success, moral soundness, or adequacy of the “efforts”that produced it.

[Rick Caldwell @RickLCaldwell]

@LawyerRichNC @Unshakablewapr So now they are above critique? That is such an irrational stance. Whether the critique is valid has nothing to do with how the platform came to exist. A claim’s truth is independent of its historical or social origins.

@PappasChandler @JoelWebbon @HwsEleutheroi Romans 11 actually does not make your case either. Notice how you conveniently ignored the immediate context of Deut. 7. Pick any passage you want but none of them make your initial case. Baal in Romans 11 is still referring to the history of the nation of Israel in 1 Kings.

[Rick Caldwell @RickLCaldwell]

@PappasChandler @JoelWebbon @HwsEleutheroi Sir. That verse in context is a mandate given to the people of Israel, not Gentile nations, to dispossess the habitants in Canaan (v. 1).

[Rick Caldwell @RickLCaldwell]

@OldWays007 @AFpost But the church is NOT Israel! Bad assumptions will inevitably lead to bad conclusions. And the church does not possess the sword 🗡️ by God’s design. All of this bloviating about moral suppression is only attractive to those whose thinking is not grounded in Scripture.

@MericanMomgrel @RuralMissionary @Protestia They are tons of scandals throughout history in Orthodox Church as well. Authority rests with the One has spoken clearly in his Word. Let's return to Scripture.

[Rick Caldwell @RickLCaldwell]

@MericanMomgrel @RuralMissionary @Protestia This is just poor reasoning. The fact that we even know that this OP presents something that antithetical to God’s will is demonstrates God’s revelation is clear. We don't need a magesterium to adjudicate the matter. And the answer is NOT retrievalism. ECFs are not infallible.

The Abrahamic and Davidic covenants are everlasting and unfulfilled in their totality. The church shares in spiritual blessings but does not absorb Israel’s national identity.

[Rick Caldwell @RickLCaldwell]

Biblical Zionism is root in God’s faithfulness.

OT land promises to Israel are eternal (e.g., Gen 15). Israel’s national future is guaranteed by God’s covenant faithfulness
The church does not fulfill Israel. Jesus’s return includes Israel’s restoration and Millennial rule.

[Mike Winger @MikeWingerii]

I think Tucker Carlson just called me (by clear implication) a heretic and one of the people he hates the most.

Is that not what was meant by this? I hold to the belief that Israel still has a prophetic future according to Scripture. As I have taught in detail for years.

[Rick Caldwell @RickLCaldwell]

The land promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob refer to real geography, not merely spiritual blessing. One cannot reinterpret OT covenants solely through later revelation; they stand on their own terms.

[Rick Caldwell @RickLCaldwell]

@ElifNull @Eric_Conn Most modern Dispensationalists would assert that the phrase refers to a subset of Jews who rejected the Messiah and persecuted the church. Their spiritual posture, not their ethnicity, earned the label. Has ties to Romans 9:6. No the literal interpretation abides.

@Jgrey2003 @a_muqadashaql_i @gracetoyou Hello brother. I typically don't engage with ungracious individuals on X, and this thread demonstrate why. I was resigned to posting information for other people who may benefit from the information. Nonetheless, he has already blocked me.

[Rick Caldwell @RickLCaldwell]

@a_muqadashaql_i @gracetoyou You gave the answer and ignored the implication. Jesus Himself, not Scofield or MacArthur handled the text in Luke 4:16–21. This is often referred to as the “Messianic gap” or prophetic telescoping. This entire time you been saying all these things are occurring. Evidence pls!

[Rick Caldwell @RickLCaldwell]

@a_muqadashaql_i @gracetoyou Isaiah 55 is addressed to Israel, inviting her to return to the Lord (vv.1–7), with the assurance that God’s word will accomplish what He sent it to do (v. 11). Verses 12–13 describe the results of that restoration, specifically joy, peace, and renewal of creation.

[Rick Caldwell @RickLCaldwell]

@a_muqadashaql_i @gracetoyou In regards to Isaiah 55:12, poetic language does not cancel the literal referent. Instead, it expresses the exuberance of creation when the Messiah restores all things.
