Absolute Time and Space Are Constituted by the Divine Attributes of Eternity and Omniprescenc

Usee eutopian time is thus, first of all, absolute in the sense that time itself is distinct from our measures of time. But newtan also conceived of time as absolute and yet a more profound sense. Namely, he held that time exists independently of any physical objects whatsoever. Usually this is interpreted to mean that time would exist even if nothing else existed. We can conceive of a logically possible world which is ately empty except for the container of absolute space and the flow of absolute time. Absolute time and space are therefore relational, in that they are contingent upon the existence of god. In newton's view, god's now is thus the present moment ofabsolute time.
