What is it like to exist in eternity? We live in time and know nothing of timelessness yet we believe in God who is eternity or knows eternity and created it - a state of timelessness. It is possible to conceptualise eternity?

While eternity is without time as we know it, it is always be marked by the counting of the sevens, seventh day, seventh week, seventh year, seventh week of weeks, seven week of years, etc... because it is God's appointed times. They will always be a memorial of the redemption plan.

There are not days (and especially no nights) in heaven there is just the one eternal day. "And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine in it. For the glory of God has illuminated it, and the Lamb is its lamp." [Revelation 21:23]

How do you know? What makes you think that the city is not the whole of creation (excluding hell)?

You will have to meet God and ask Him, and get your answer from Him. Just as I did. It is called "knowing" because of the connection.

I have been vigilant in addressing many issues but it all boils down to the connection and relationship with God. Starting from there, a lot of things will make more sense.. It is not a lazy path, but a blood sweat and tear path to meet with Him.

God has deigned to sit in my presence every mass for many years. He speaks through the liturgy, through the people, through miracle and word. These are blessings. In eternity the days are not counted. The sun does not set. The faithful do not absent themselves from the holy Presence and return only once in seven ... God fills the whole of reality and worship is constant.

Denominations are man-made inventions. God made the Church.

And the true church is a body of believers that have a personal relationship and it is no denomination or church

The church is the body of Christ, there is only one body of Christ, and because it is Christ's body it is of necessity catholic.

To be clear for those who are not, that is not the denomination nor is it anything that comes out of Rome, it is the corporate believers from all denoms that are being led by the Spirit of God and are obedient to Him

The church is present in Rome as well as elsewhere. It's odd that you seek to exclude a city from the grace of God.
