Time was God's first creation.

Being made in the image of God, man was the crown of creation.

Following the creation concept that creation processes differed from preservation processes, it is suggested that God endowed each created kind, at the time of its creation, with potential for vast variety.

Time is not eternal but was created by God at the beginning.

There are also scientific problems with the concept that each of the creation days was a long period of time.

It seems we will continue to have problems with this classification and it may be because it comes under the heading of creation rather than preservation.
