Moses prayed, "Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations" — a prayer that only makes sense if God stands outside and above every generation. Tozer opens up the staggering truth of divine eternity.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Tozer explains that God does not experience time sequentially — past, present, and future — but dwells in an "eternal now." What does it mean that God sees all of history simultaneously rather than experiencing it as we do?
2.He suggests that time itself is a creature — something God made, not something in which God is trapped. How does this reframe your understanding of creation, of history, and of the "end of all things"?
3.Psalm 90, which Tozer references, was written by Moses — a man who experienced enormous change, loss, and transition over a long life. How does Moses's prayer ("from everlasting to everlasting, You are God") reflect a hard-won trust in divine eternity? What did Moses know from experience that gave weight to those words?
