Tel qu’en Lui-même enfin l’éternité le change

Sorrow hath chang'd its note : such is His will
Who changeth all things

While it is beyond our comprehension that eternity should meet us in time, yet it is true because in Jesus Christ eternity has become time.

The essence of life is change, he said, and the essence of eternal life is eternal change.

I leave eternity to Thee; for what is man that he should live out the life-time of his God?

L'éternité, c'est long ... surtout vers la fin.

[T]he eternal life assumption... implies... there must exist in this future (but in two precise mathematical senses, also in the present and the past) a Person Who is simultaneously transcendent to yet immanent in the physical universe of space, time, and matter. In the Person's immanent temporal aspect... changing (forever growing in knowledge and power), but in the... transcendent eternal aspect, forever complete and unchanging. How this comes about as a matter of physics will be described...

When Time is spent, Eternity begins.

All that you touch
You Change. All that you Change
Changes you. The only lasting truth
Is Change. God
Is Change.

Change alone is eternal, perpetual, immortal.

The spirit now wills his own will, and he who had been lost to the world now conquers the world.

'T is Providence alone secures In every change both mine and yours.

And before you know me gone Eternity and I are one.

God himself culminates in the present moment, and will never be more divine in the lapse of all the ages.
