Time and space are steadfastly linked to Christian worship because time and
space are the most evident tools utilized in worship gatherings.[1] The time
and space of worship gatherings are critical.[2] Time
and space are human elements but elements which God created. Therefore, not
only is human understanding limited but believers worship a God not bound by
the two elements. God’s worthiness, as much as may be attempted, is impossible
to describe because he exists outside of time and space.
Since God is not bound by time and space, he is infinitely worthy. For him
to be bound by anyone or anything would be for him to not be God. God, however,
transcends time and space. In fact, he governs the two. Moreover, God has
created time and space and uses it as a part of his story. Thus, time and space
are crucial elements to Christian worship. While human understanding of
anything is finite, believers should trust God no matter their circumstances
because he not only knows and understands everything, he also presides over all
situations and all outcomes. Christians should take comfort in this truth and
give God glory within the time and space that he has created.
