Yes; but God doesn’t live somewhere in the ‘Cosmos’. (Please correct me, if I am misunderstanding you.)

I believe that God, as eternal conscious awareness, lives entirely outside of his Creation, while at the same time experiencing *within* it, as originating Spirit. The Universe is something that He created for his enjoyment and experience, and his desire to share his Love, and love for Beauty; and this is also Love for his creation, as any Father loves his child, or any artist loves his creation.

His spirit is in us; just as sperm, ova, and genes are, on the material plane.

We are the result of that: God enjoying Himself, and experiencing Himself; and loving us as his Children; and we are consequently potential co-creators. We live by His spirit, within us; we are made of Him.

And, It goes on forever.

Psalm 82:6 (KJV)

“I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.”

-JT

I think you missed the point......the point is that He is outside of our notion of time and space constraints....and also that time is NOT a constant, as weird as that may seem.

Given the way time bends and that time and space are a continuum - my point is that there isn’t necessarily any conflict between a six day creation and a 16 billion year old planet, or whatever.....
