hearing Jesus say: "Today you will be with me in paradise"
When the "moment" we die is the "moment" of the resurrection of all who
believe that Jesus died for our sins, it does not say anything about what
is going on "outside earthly life." If "time" is only something we
experience in that way here on earth, we don't have any idea about
"timelessness." Our Creator stands above time, and so do people who
died. Jesus could meet with people like Moses and Elijah.
So, not only our Lord, but they as well, were above time.
Since we live in "time" we have difficulty to understand what it means to
be "outside time". Time is part of creation. We are not able to say, what
"being outside time" means, we only know it is part of creation.
