Eternity

In his book Jesus Among Other Gods, Ravi Zacharias says, "The author of time, who lived in the eternal, was made incarnate in time that we might live with the eternal in view. In that sense, the message of Christ was not the introduction of religion, but an introduction to truth about reality as God alone knows it."

Does man really have a view of eternity? Can we really see it? Unlike the animals, I believe we can. Therein is our sense that God is there and that He is in fact the creator of the universe. Pascal wrote the following: "By space the universe embraces me and swallows me up like an atom, by thought I embrace the universe." Pascal is correct. Where did that come from?
