It is interesting to note that God’s revelation of specific attributes, and even specific, divine persons (Father, Son, Holy Spirit), from more general attributes has a parallel in cosmology. Science understands the big bang to be a process of a single super dimension, becoming specific dimensions in the first few seconds of time. Time itself devolved from the greater dimension of eternity, which is the unified existence of cause and effect. Thus, eternal being is not outside the limitations of physics.
