There are many references that talk about God before time began or timeless.

The set of supernatural things would contain God, but there are other things (angelic beings, places, people's souls--both past and present, etc.) so you cannot use them interchangeably. Also, even if Christianity was completely wrong, it still would not rule out the supernatural.
You are not really answering my question .... unnatural is is something that doesn't conform to what we presently know
I would argue supernatural is something that doesn't conform to what we presently know, but can never be known.
The point is I don't accredit deism with being supernatural, religion does and then goes on to argue it can be known?
Dog.
Religion is the top shelf of the supernatural supermarket ... Madog
