Are We Really Surrounded by the Saints — Or Is It Just a Metaphor?

God is timeless, existing outside of the linear progression of time. He allows believers to enter into a different realm, known as the Christ time, where they can see and interact with the past and future as if it's happening now. This concept is rooted in scripture, particularly in the books of Romans and Hebrews, where Paul describes the promises made to Abraham and the faith of the heroes of the Bible as if they're happening in the present. By entering into this realm, believers can find encouragement, hope, and confidence in their walk with God, and can see themselves as part of a larger story of faith that transcends time and space.
