Here is the background of this thread.
And here is my thinking on that article referred to.
--------------------------------
Does God exist outside time and space?
Well, if you insist that God does not exists, then the question is not in order.
So the universe that you know exist without God, that is your preferred opinion.
But let me tell you my idea:
In this universe you know about, there were things existing before but now no longer, for example, our ancestors
So these things had an ending.
And there are things which will exist which now don't, for example babies who now are not existing but will be in the future.
So there are things which now don't exist now but will exist in the future.
Okay, can you be intelligent to think that there are also things that always are existing in the universe you know, they never started to exist because they have always been existing, and they will not stop existing because they will always be existing.
What are those things?
They are the subsisting things that continue to exist when those things to which they gave subsistence stopped existing; and they are the same things which already exist before they give subsistence to the things which exist in the future.
You get the idea, they are the subsisting things which change into things of the future but are always existing even when they become the things in the future, and which which also continue to exist when the things which are existing in them stop existing.
They are the same things which were existing prior to the Big Bang and will be existing after the Big Bang stops existing.
So these things can be outside time and space.
Now, they need not be several things, they could be one thing, and that is God.
God is the primal substance that is permeating all things that come and go as He wills them to come and to go or to stay longer or shorter.
