Its not a concern for me because its not about belief. Just trying to understand what's possible.

I was building on Bunny's comment -

I think it is impossible for us to conceive what it would be like to experience time like this. Nonetheless, I think the theist has to believe God exists outside of time or will run into paradox after paradox

This isn't like the wave-particle duality where we have the evidence we just can't conceptualize it's actuality. Here, we don't have any evidence and even have counter evidence, nor can we grasp how it would manifest or the implications of it. We just 'need' it. It's like, "I know pigs can fly, but they only do it when we're not looking".

Is there any criteria for 'possible' that would help get us into this besides just pointing to a curtain?

This is metaphysics, the curtain stays.

It seems untroubling though, isn't it necessary that a being that creates something exists outside the thing it created.
