Another facet of eternity is that it is permanent in some aspects. Supposing we are in a state of eternity; a [[person]] could not break a [[pencil]] in two, or walk from a place to another since those actions have a before and an after: a [[time]] in which the pencil was whole and a time in which it no longer was. These changes correspond to time. Basically nothing can happen in eternity in the sense we understand it. In order for actions to happen, there must be a tense that corresponds to a continuing action: a tense in which past, present, and future are combined to form a continual action. One doesn't break the pencil, but one broke the pencil, breaks the pencil, and will break the pencil all at the same instant. | Another facet of eternity is that it is permanent in some aspects.
