And from this NOW we are generating everything.

The reason why I say this is, if we explore the conventional view of time, vis a vie, that there exists this "flow of time". We find that this is a mis perception.

We are told that there exists a force called the "past" and a force called the "future". And we are at the mercy of these "forces".

Simple examination shows that this '"mighty" force labeled the "past".....is simply memories.

If everyone is generating their existence from the Never ending NOW, then responsibility for "evil" is put on the person, not a fictional character.
I understand everything but the last statement. Could you please clarify this? What about our shared existences?

It's interesting to me because of all the references in the Bible linking God and time...he identifies himself as I AM...A thousand years is as a day with God...take no thought for tomorrow...and especially to forgive, which is letting go of the past and how our past "disappears" with Him.

So many links between forgiveness and power or healing. Just thinking that maybe His powers and omniscience come from the fact that He is Now and for the devil to have power over us he has to keep us tied up in the past accusations or condemnations.

I understand that you think it's all symbolism and fables but I'm not asking you to agree just tell me what you know, please. Thanks.
