Tomat0 quoted The Epistle to the Romans by Karl Barth
With reference to before and after, the Moment is and remains strange and different; it neither has its roots in the past, nor can it be transmitted into the future. The Moment does not belong in any causal or temporal or logical sequence: it is always and everywhere wholly new: it is what God — who is only immortal — is and has and does.
— The Epistle to the Romans by Karl Barth (Page 112)
