What are your thoughts on the book's 'time versus non-time' interpretation of "last things"?

BOOK WEBSITE: https://ygodallowsevil.com


Citing various prophetic biblical passages referencing the day of judgement, the author describes the fiery act by which God will permanently destroy the evil that was committed during the temporal history of man, thereby ridding both man and God of their continual awareness/experience of this evil as they “inhabit eternity.” The author argues that, because time itself is a product of original sin, the entire space-time universe will likewise be incinerated on the day of judgement, after which God will remake the material realm into one that is no longer ordered around time-based rules of physics. What are your thoughts on this ‘time versus non-time’ interpretation of “last things”?

Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen

Second Peter 3:7–10 is perfectly clear that the destruction of sin on the day of judgment will include the destruction of the entire space-time universe: “the heavens and earth that now exist have been stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment…then the elements will be dissolved with fire, and the earth and the works that are upon it will be burned up.” (RSV) Following this total destruction of sin by fire, Isaiah 65:17 states that the entire universe will then be replaced by “new heavens and a new earth.” (RSV)

If it is necessary for the entire space-time universe to be destroyed for the sake of getting rid of the pervasive effects of sin, it follows that the new “heavens and earth” will not be of the same character as the current heavens and earth. If so, then our “space-time” universe may very well be replaced by one in which time itself no longer exists.

Time is a delicate concept which can not be understand so easily... According to science is a dimension so when you consider something on the basis of time then it's not fixed it can be different
