Since the second century of the early Christian church, Christian scholars have conceived the plan of salvation from the point of view of divine timelessness. Throughout the history of the church, the dogmas of immutability and impassibility have been perpetuated. However, returning to New Testament biblical exegesis, in 1946 Oscar Cullmann, a Lutheran theologian, defended temporality. In Adventist theology, in 1983 Fernando Canale defended his thesis in the area of systematic theology on the temporality of God. The objective of this research is to compare the writings of Cullmann and Canale regarding temporality, verifying their respective similarities and complementations. This study uses the historical-bibliographic method as a research tool. The research concludes that while Cullmann developed the theme of temporality from the perspective of Christ's earthly ministry, Canale did so from the perspective of the heavenly ministry. If on the one hand Cullmann wrote with interest in the line of salvation history, Canale contributed to the relationship between the heavenly sanctuary and the plan of salvation. Both contributed to the rebuilding of biblical-historical-temporal thought.
