Hello all,
Listen please to my opinion referring to the things, happened during 'Creation'.
Genesis 1 v 1 : " In the beginning God created the heavens.......".
From eternity God had his plan to surround himself with a crowd of 'beings', who could receive his love and reflect it back. There are no moments in Gosds realms. There is only an endless 'Now'.
But for us there is 'a beginning to all things': the creation of the heavenS .For there are more heavens. Solomon was already saying: " But will God really dwell on earth ? The heavenS, even the highest heaven, cannot contain you". ( 1 Kings 8 v 27).
The heavens were there before mankind and earth. For Job 38 v 6 says: "Who laid the cornerstone of the earth, while the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy".
And now there is Genesis 1 v 1 b: "....and the earth" :
No wonder that the angels sang and were shouting for joy. The Lord had created something new. In another reality.... (Ephesians 3 v 18) with three dimensions; : wide, long and high, but lacking THEIR dimension: deep .....there was at once a universe with hundreds of thousands of spirals, everyone consisting of billions of stars, with some of these stars accompanied by planets.
And the attention of the angels was drawn to that little planet of a relatively little star, in a relatively little spiral. And they knew that this was 'the planet of the plan'.
A very high placed angel became furious with God. He comprehended that on this planet the being, called mankind, should come, which should be a SON of God, while the angels were predestinated to remain SERVANTS.
He revolted against the Lord, (Ezekiel 28), was thrown out of heaven and as first bad deed, teared open the earth, so that the waters of the forming oceans came in direct contact with the magma and even deeper.
So there was vers 2:
"Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep" The Lord nevers sends chaos.Isaiah 45 v 18 says: "The Lord did not create earth to be empty but formed it to be inhabited".
And therefore the Lord was not absent. And therefore Genesis 1 v 2 moreover says: " The Spirit of God was hovering over the waters".
And now God began to change the earth, so badly damaged. Hy used first and foremost the forces of nature he had created: for instance 'the gravity'.
There was a big, impenetrable cloud around the earth, consisting of pieces of stone of- let us say- kilometers- and gravel and everything between. From this cloud of -say- 300 kilometers thick, at first began to rain down the big pieces. That proces lasted for a cosmic day of 24 cosmic hours, maybe hundreds of millions of ' our years' and at the end it was .like this, that 'at day' there was somewhat of light and at night a scarcely seen glimp of light. Sun and moon tried to reach earth.
And on the second day there came a little bit 'cosmos' into all the chaos. There was to be seen a little separation. You coud at last see, where earth began and where 'the big cloud' began.. You could speak of an expanse (6).
And as big pieces of stones were raining more and more off, dry land appeared in the midst of the original flood, (9)
Sun and moon were at yet not able to penetrate completely the huge mass of clouds. They already began warming up the earth and a climate of a hot-house reigned over the whole planet, from pole to pole and that is the reason, that they now find coal, rest of bracken, in Spitzbergen.(11)
And then- at last- there was the glorious moment, that sun and moon broke through the diminishing clouds an gave their ligh directly. The possiblities were created for a normal divison of climates, ( 14)'
And then began the real creation. There were fishes in the sea, but all of them ' according to their kinds', (20), which is an absolute obstacle for the so called 'evolutiontheory').
And then there came animals on the soil. And then - at last- there was the glorious moment, that was been feared by the fallen angel, the satan, as we know him: there stood mankind, man and woman, Adam and Eve.
And so things began.
But there is a preach in all this:
The heart of a man or woman without the Lord is.... although they do not remark it always ....formless and empty with darkness over the surface of the deep, (2). But when the Spirit of God is hovering over the waters of misery, (2), what then....
There comes a little bit of light in those lifes, ( 3), there comes a first begin of order, ( 6- 13), the light of the Lord breaks through, ( 14), New hopes, new insights break through,( 20-24), and at last there comes a new creation, by the being filled with the Spirit, mankind fit for the new heavens and the new earth.
