The Omniscience and Omnipresence of GodOmniscience

Hebrews 4:12

To wrap ones mind around the fact of "all-knowing" is to accept that all events have occurred, all days have come to an end, all life as we know it has ceased to be, and that the universe in which we live has ground to a stop in every sense of further development that we can express. To be at such a vantage point in the history of our world would certainly require one possessing properties and attributes beyond anything measurable within the realm of human experience. Yet Scripture, that amazing record of Judean-Christian development, declares that God is "all-knowing". There is no thing that He, the creator, does not know of fact, event, thought, or intention of heart. This is stunning! How can we possibly comprehend this extraordinary statement that "He knows all, past, present, and future"?

Speed of light? "And this is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is light, and in Him there is no darkness at all." (John 1:5) Scripture tells us clearly, and beyond any hope of John, the writer, having any physiological understanding of the depth of truth he was espousing, that God is the essence of that which defines time and space in this cosmos.GOD ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Eternity Creation EternityPast One Single Event Future????????????????????????????? ????????????????????????????

"I am the Alpha and the Omega" says the Lord God, "Who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty"..."Do not be afraid; I am the first and the last, and the living one; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades." Revelation 1:8

Omnipresence is a big word. It is an even bigger concept. Think about this--it means more than simply being in all places. It must include the idea of being in all places at all times. Try to visualize it this way--We hold within our brain cells, the memory of places we have been. Those memories are always associated with the times we came to know or experience them. We have been privileged to visit some very interesting places--New Orleans at Mardi Gras, San Francisco during the rainy season, Tahoe in the snow, Miami in July, Atlanta in the Spring, New York in a winter storm. Each of these places is remembered within the context of conditions that prevailed when we were there. But, each of these places has an ongoing experience apart from our own time there. They are not always in the same condition in which we experienced them. However, to us those places are always viewed in light of our memory of them. Or, to put it another way; those places are always stored in our memory of the light of them. It's the light that makes up our perception of reality and experience.
