1. Best guess: God created humans to only exist in the present because it's boring to experience it all at once. Pure omnipotence is boring, so we only get glimpses of the future through our dreams. The Story of materiality requires us to exist by the second ticking evermore into eternity in one direction because a Story wouldn't be a story if it wasn't coherent in a relatively linear way that makes causality make sense we can perceive through our consciousness.
