Matter does not exist. It is simply an abstraction to describe the relative progress of time. Every way we measure "matter" involves the progress of time: microscope, telescope, ruler, calipers, vibrations of photons hitting the eye.
When you say that the earth has rotated 15°, it simply means an hour has elapsed. When you move 60 miles while the earth rotates 15°, you have gone 60 mph.
The past is the way things were before they moved. Our memory is an image of the way things were arranged before. Matter is a creation of the mind.
If there were no time, there would be no matter.
