Here is a Scripture-based presentation showing how Yahweh perceives time, that He exists outside of time, and that “yet a little while” Yeshua will return to set up His Kingdom on the earth. All points are supported directly from the Bible.
I am including a message version for use in your home Sabbath gathering
1. Yahweh Exists Outside of Time
Yahweh inhabits eternity
Isaiah 57:15
“For thus says the High and Lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy…”
Yahweh does not merely live forever — He inhabits eternity, meaning time does not confine Him.
Yahweh sees the end from the beginning
Isaiah 46:9–10
“I am Yahweh, and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done…”
Only One outside of time can see all history at once.
Yahweh is present to all time at once
Revelation 1:8
“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End… who is and who was and who is to come.”
Past, present, and future exist simultaneously before Yahweh.
2. Yahweh’s Measurement of Time Is Different Than Man’s
A thousand years is as one day to Yahweh
Psalm 90:4
“For a thousand years in Your sight are like yesterday when it is past, and like a watch in the night.”
2 Peter 3:8
“With the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.”
What seems long to man is brief to Yahweh.
Yahweh’s apparent delay is mercy, not slackness
2 Peter 3:9
“The Lord is not slack concerning His promise… but is longsuffering toward us…”
Yahweh is working within His perfect timetable, not ours.
3. “Yet a Little While” — Yeshua Will Return
Scripture explicitly says Yeshua’s return is “a little while”
Hebrews 10:37
“For yet a little while, and He who is coming will come and will not tarry.”
From Yahweh’s eternal perspective, Yeshua’s return is near and certain.
Yeshua Himself spoke of a short time
John 14:3, 19
“I will come again and receive you to Myself…”
“A little while longer and the world will see Me no more…”
The apostles taught the same expectation
James 5:8
“Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.”
1 Peter 4:7
“The end of all things is at hand…”
4. Yeshua Returns to Establish His Kingdom on Earth
The Kingdom is set up on the earth
Daniel 2:44
“And in the days of these kings the Yahweh of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed… it shall stand forever.”
Yeshua receives rulership over all nations
Daniel 7:13–14
“One like the Son of Man… was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him.”
The Kingdom replaces human governments
Revelation 11:15
“The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Yeshua, and He shall reign forever and ever.”
Yeshua reigns on earth
Zechariah 14:4, 9
“And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives…”
“And the LORD shall be King over all the earth.”
The saints rule with Yeshua on the earth
Revelation 5:10
“And have made us kings and priests to our Yahweh; and we shall reign on the earth.”
5. Why Yeshua’s Return Is Called “Soon”
From man’s perspective:
- Generations pass
- Centuries seem long
From Yahweh’s perspective:
- He inhabits eternity
- A thousand years is as one day
- Yeshua’s return is “yet a little while”
Romans 8:18
“The sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.”
6. Summary (Scripture Truth)
- Yahweh exists outside of time (Isaiah 57:15)
- Yahweh sees all history at once (Isaiah 46:10)
- Time does not limit Yahweh (Psalm 90:4)
- Yeshua’s return is certain and near in Yahweh’s sight (Hebrews 10:37)
- Yeshua will return to establish Yahweh’s Kingdom on the earth (Daniel 2:44; Revelation 11:15)
—————————
Below is a full message manuscript, written to be read aloud, firmly scripture-centered, and consistent with the biblical teaching that Yeshua returns to the earth to establish the Kingdom of Yahweh, and that Yahweh exists outside of time.
It is structured with clear flow, transitions, and emphasis, suitable for Sabbath teaching, home fellowship, or recording.
“Yet a Little While” — Yahweh’s Time and the Certain Return of Yeshua
Introduction
Brethren, one of the greatest misunderstandings in Christianity today is how Yahweh perceives time.
Men say, “Where is the promise of His coming?”
They say, “It has been two thousand years.”
They say, “If Yeshua were coming, He would have come by now.”
But those statements reveal something very important:
👉 They assume Yahweh experiences time the way man does.
The Bible teaches something very different.
Yahweh does not live inside time.
Yahweh inhabits eternity.
And from Yahweh’s perspective, the return of Yeshua is still described as “yet a little while.”
Today we will let the Scriptures explain Yahweh’s view of time, and we will see why the Bible can truthfully say that Yeshua is coming soon, and that He will establish the Kingdom of Yahweh on the earth.
I. Yahweh Does Not Live Inside Time
Let us begin by understanding who Yahweh is.
Yahweh inhabits eternity
Turn to Isaiah 57:15:
“For thus says the High and Lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy…”
Yahweh does not merely live forever.
He inhabits eternity.
Eternity is not endless time — it is existence outside of time.
Time is something Yahweh created.
Therefore, Yahweh is not bound by it.
Yahweh sees all of history at once
Now turn to Isaiah 46:9–10:
“I am Yahweh, and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done…”
Only a Being outside of time can declare the end before it happens.
To Yahweh:
- Creation is present
- Yeshua’s first coming is present
- Yeshua’s second coming is present
- The Kingdom of Yahweh is present
Yahweh sees the entire plan at once.
Yahweh describes Himself beyond time
Revelation 1:8:
“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End… who is and who was and who is to come.”
Yahweh is not moving forward through time as we are.
He stands above it.
II. Yahweh’s Measurement of Time Is Not Man’s
Because Yahweh exists outside of time, His measurement of time is different.
A thousand years is as one day
Psalm 90:4:
“For a thousand years in Your sight are like yesterday when it is past, and like a watch in the night.”
And again in 2 Peter 3:8:
“With the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.”
This is not poetic exaggeration.
It is Yahweh explaining that time has no controlling power over Him.
What feels long to us is brief to Yahweh.
Yahweh is never late
Now notice 2 Peter 3:9:
“The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us…”
Yahweh is not delayed.
Yahweh is not behind schedule.
The apparent delay exists only in human thinking.
From Yahweh’s perspective, everything is proceeding exactly on time.
III. “Yet a Little While” — Yeshua Will Return
Now we come to a critical phrase used by Yahweh Himself.
Yahweh says Yeshua’s return is “yet a little while”
Hebrews 10:37:
“For yet a little while, and He who is coming will come and will not tarry.”
Brethren, this was written nearly 2,000 years ago — and yet Yahweh still calls it “a little while.”
Why?
Because Yahweh is speaking from eternity, not from human calendars.
Yeshua Himself used this language
John 14:3:
“And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again…”
And in verse 19:
“A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me.”
Yeshua did not say, “In a long time.”
He said, “A little while.”
The apostles taught the same expectation
James 5:8:
“Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.”
1 Peter 4:7:
“But the end of all things is at hand…”
This was not false expectation.
It was correct understanding of Yahweh’s time.
IV. Why Yeshua Must Return — The Kingdom of Yahweh
Now let us be very clear about why Yeshua returns.
He does not return to take people to heaven.
He returns to establish the Kingdom of Yahweh on the earth.
Yahweh’s Kingdom replaces human rule
Daniel 2:44:
“And in the days of these kings the Yahweh of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed… it shall stand forever.”
Human governments will end.
Yahweh’s government will replace them.
Yeshua receives rulership over the earth
Daniel 7:13–14:
“One like the Son of Man… was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him.”
This is earthly rulership over nations.
Yeshua reigns from Jerusalem
Zechariah 14:4, 9:
“And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives…”
“And the LORD shall be King over all the earth.”
Yeshua does not rule from heaven over a departed humanity.
He rules on the earth, over living nations.
The saints rule with Yeshua on the earth
Revelation 5:10:
“And have made us kings and priests to our Yahweh; and we shall reign on the earth.”
This is the purpose of the resurrection.
V. Why the World Scoffs at Yeshua’s Return
Peter warned us of this attitude.
2 Peter 3:3–4:
“Scoffers will come… saying, ‘Where is the promise of His coming?’”
Why do they scoff?
Because they judge Yahweh by human time, not divine eternity.
They forget who Yahweh is.
VI. Encouragement for Yahweh’s People
Brethren, this age is brief.
Romans 8:18:
“The sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.”
From Yahweh’s perspective, this is still “a little while.”
Yeshua will come.
The Kingdom will be established.
Yahweh’s plan will not fail.
Conclusion
Let us remember these truths:
- Yahweh inhabits eternity
- Yahweh is not bound by time
- What seems long to man is brief to Yahweh
- Yeshua’s return is certain and imminent
- The Kingdom of Yahweh will be established on the earth
As Hebrews declares:
“Yet a little while, and He who is coming will come and will not tarry.”
May we live watchful, faithful, and anchored in Yahweh’s eternal perspective.
