In Second Peter 3:8 we read:

“But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.”

I looked up Second Peter 3:8 in three commentaries on the Bible and this is what I learned:

“His eternity exceeds all measures of time.” (Jamieson Fausset and Brown) “All things past, present, and future, are ever before him.” (Matthew Henry) “God is outside time.” (The New Bible Commentary Revised)

And this is what Peter Drucker says, “The best way to predict the future is to create it.”
