# Supernatural: The word "super" obviously means great, like ''[[Superman]]''. He isn't a regular man, he is a SUPER man. Similar to that but slightly different, when we say God is supernatural, we are saying that he exists independent of and logically prior to the Universe (I hesitate to say chronologically prior because of debate on whether God exists in time or not. However, he can certainly act within the realm of time.)

== "God made time." ==
That's a tricky statement, because you could rightly ask, "at what time did he make it?" Now we don't fully understand God obviously, and the bible doesn't tell us everything there is to know about an infinite being, but some have posited this. That God entered time at the point he created it. Personally, JackSmith, I don't think any of us here at Conservapedia have the brains to answer your questions fully. I would recommend the following articles and lectures by Dr. William Lane Craig, because he has studied the ideas of God and time in much more depth. Here at Conservapedia (and this isn't an insult), you will be pooling our ignorance :-).
* All his articles on "[http://www.leaderu.com/offices/billcraig/menus/eternity.html Divine Eternity]"
* [http://www.leaderu.com/offices/billcraig/docs/eternity.html God, Time, and Eternity] is probably the specific article you want.
