Q-2. The GAP Theory and the PRE-ADAMIC Race!

SPELLING EDITED


Q-2. THE GAP THEORY AND THE PRE-ADAMIC RACE!


First of all, what is the “Gap Theory”? And what is the “Pre-Adamic Race”? Many Christians believe that there was a previous civilization of humanoid beings that inhabited the earth BEFORE Adam was ever created. In other words, many Christians believe that there was a race of beings that inhabited the earth that was NOT a part of the human race that descended from Adam and Eve. And that race of beings is called the PRE-Adam race or the Pre-Adamic Race. And the “GAP” theory says that there is a gap of an unspecified length of TIME between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2 to explain all the archeological evidence ancient civilizations that are much OLDER than the human race which descended for Adam just under 6000 years ago.

But the many ruins of many ancient civilizations is only one of the reasons why I myself believe that the Bible teaches us that the earth is MUCH OLDER than the human race. Have you ever wondered WHERE the WATER came from when there is no mention of God CREATING the water in Genesis chapter 1? Have you ever wondered WHY God would create the earth VOID, CHAOTIC, and without form? Let us read Genesis 1:1,2 and then we will dig into the meanings of the Hebrew words.


Genesis 1:1,2.


“In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth. 

2.  And the earth was without form and void. And darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.”


Now let us read Genesis 1:1,2 from a LITERAL translation that I use when I study the Bible.


Genesis 1:1,2 from the LITERAL translation.


“In beginning he created Elohim ALEPH-TAV the heavens and ALEPH TAV the earth.

2. And the earth she BECAME chaos and vacancy and darkness over faces of ABYSS. And Spirit of Elohim vibrating over faces of waters.” 


Now let us read the same literal translation again in more modern English. The double arrows (>>) is to show that the Aleph and the Tav Hebrew letters are NOT translated. Some Bible scholars believe that the Aleph-Tav are hidden prophecies pointing to Jesus, the Messiah. The Aleph is the first Hebrew letter and the Tav is the last Hebrew letter. And Jesus said that he is the first and the last and that he came forth out from God.


Genesis 1:1,2 from the LITERAL translation.


In “A” beginning God created >> the heavens and >> the earth

2. And the earth BECAME CHAOS and EMPTY, and DARKNESS (Or WICKEDNESS, death, and DESTRUCTION) came upon (Or death and destruction came AGAINST) the faces (Or the TURNING) of the ABYSS.”


Now, Genesis 1:1 could mean the very beginning in eternity past when God created the original heavens and the earth. Or Genesis 1:1 could mean “A” beginning, as in, one of MANY restorations of the original heavens and the earth. Also, the Hebrew word translated as “CREATED” could be translated as “CUT DOWN” the heavens and the earth. And then everything after Genesis 1:2 is God RESTORING the earth that was destroyed in a FLOOD that Bible Theologians call the Luciferian Flood. Let us read Genesis 1:1,2 again with all the Strong’s numbers and then we will take a look at the meanings of those Hebrew words. I will color code only the words that we will be focusing upon.


Genesis 1:1,2.


“Gen 1:1  In the beginning H7225 God H430 created H1254 (H853) the heaven H8064 and the earth. H776 

Gen 1:2  And the earth H776 was H1961 without form, H8414 and void; H922 and darkness H2822 was upon H5921 the face H6440 of the deep. H8415 And the Spirit H7307 of God H430 moved H7363 upon H5921 the face H6440 of the waters. H4325” 


H1254

בָּרָא

bârâ'

baw-raw'

A primitive root; (absolutely) to create; (qualified) to cut down (a wood), select, feed (as formative processes): - choose, create (creator), cut down, dispatch, do, make (fat).


So then, Genesis 1:1, as a paraphrased version, could read as follows. A “paraphrased” version adds words to the original text that are not in the original text in order to give an INTERPRETATION of the Bible. And that interpretation MAY be correct but it could also be in error. So please understand that this is my own personal INTERPRETATION of the account of creation in the book of Genesis.


My own paraphrased version of Genesis 1:1.


“In a new beginning [after] God cutdown [a rebellion in] the heavens and the earth.”


Hold this thought as we examine the meanings of some of the Hebrew words in Genesis 1:2.


H1961

הָיָה

hâyâh

haw-yaw'

A primitive root (compare H1933); to exist, that is, be or become, come to pass (always emphatic, and not a mere copula or auxiliary): - beacon, X altogether, be (-come, accomplished, committed, like), break, cause, come (to pass), continue, do, faint, fall, + follow, happen, X have, last, pertain, quit (one-) self, require, X use.


So then, after God created or created AND cutdown the heavens and the earth, then the earth BECAME without form and void. But let us go ahead and look up those two Hebrew words translated as without form and void so you can see the full meanings of these Hebrew words. The earth became without FORM (H8414)


H8414

תֹּהוּ

tôhû

to'-hoo

From an unused root meaning to lie waste; a desolation (of surface), that is, desert; figuratively a worthless thing; adverbially in vain: - confusion, empty place, without form, nothing, (thing of) nought, vain, vanity, waste, wilderness.


The earth (Or the LAND, as in the surface of the earth) became without form and VOID (H922)


H922

בֹּהוּ

bôhû

bo'-hoo

From an unused root (meaning to be empty); a vacuity, that is, (superficially) an undistinguishable ruin: - emptiness, void.


Some other meanings of these two Hebrew words “tohu and bohu” are confusion and chaos. So with these meanings let us read my own paraphrased version of what we have so far.


Genesis 1:1,2 as my own paraphrased version could read as follows.


“In a new beginning after God cutdown a rebellion in the heavens and the earth.

2. And the earth BECAME VAIN, an undistinguishable RUIN and wasteland void and EMPTY of its inhabitants, and…”


Let us now look at the meanings of some more Hebrew words in Genesis 1:2. When I read the following meanings of these Hebrew words in Genesis 1:2, then I immediately saw the REBELLION of Lucifer making WAR with God to try and exalt his throne above God’s throne to be like God. The Hebrew translated as the “DEEP” in the King James Version is translated as the ABYSS in the literal translation. And the expanse of Outer space is DEEP. Even in today’s time we use the words DEEP space when going beyond our own solar system. In other words, IN the ABYSS of the expanse of heaven there became an UPROAR or a rebellion. There was a TURNING in the abyss away from righteousness where the angels dwell. And one-third of the angels joined with Lucifer and TURNED to wickedness and to the sin of rebellion to make war with God and His faithful angels. Here are the meanings of the next few Hebrew words.

And DARKNESS (H2822)was upon the face of the deep.


H2822

חֹשֶׁךְ

chôshek

kho-shek'

From H2821; the dark; hence (literally) darkness; figuratively misery, destruction, death, ignorance, sorrow, wickedness: - dark (-ness), night, obscurity.


And darkness was UPON (H5921)the face of the deep.


H5921

עַל

‛al

al

Properly the same as H5920 used as a preposition (in the singular or plural, often with prefix, or as conjugation with a particle following); above, over, upon, or against (yet always in this last relation with a downward aspect) in a great variety of applications: - above, according to (-ly), after, (as) against, among, and, X as, at, because of, beside (the rest of), between, beyond the time, X both and, by (reason of), X had the charge of, concerning for, in (that), (forth, out) of, (from) (off), (up-) on, over, than, through (-out), to, touching, X with.


And darkness was upon the FACE (H6440) of the deep. This made me think of Lucifer who TURNED AGAINST God and made WAR against God. So the REASON for God CUTTING DOWN the earth was to bring the WAR to an end and that is why the earth BECAME void and empty of its pre-Adamic race of humanoid-like beings.


H6440

פָּנִים

pânı̂ym

paw-neem'

Plural (but always used as a singular) of an unused noun (פָּנֶה pâneh, paw-neh'; from 6437); the face (as the part that TURNS); used in a great variety of applications (literally and figuratively); also (with prepositional prefix) as a preposition (before, etc.): -    + accept, a (be-) fore (-time), against, anger, X as (long as), at, + battle, + because (of), + beseech, countenance, edge, + employ, endure, + enquire, face, favour, fear of, for, forefront (-part), form (-er time, -ward), from, front, heaviness, X him (-self), + honourable, + impudent, + in, it, look [-eth] (-s), X me, + meet, X more than, mouth, of, off, (of) old (time), X on, open, + out of, over against, the partial, person, + please, presence, prospect, was purposed, by reason, of, + regard, right forth, + serve, X shewbread, sight, state, straight, + street, X thee, X them (-selves), through (+ -out), till, time (-s) past, (un-) to (-ward), + upon, upside (+ down), with (-in, + stand), X ye, X you.


And darkness was upon the face of the DEEP (H8415).


H8415

תְּהֹם    תְּהוֹם

tehôm    tehôm

teh-home', teh-home'

(Usually feminine) from H1949; an abyss (as a surging mass of water), especially the deep (the main sea or the subterranean water supply): - deep (place), depth.


So then, the faces of the deep can be read as the TURNING in the ABYSS or the depth of the heavens. And the Hebrew words translated as “upon” the face of the deep could be read as AGAINST the TURNING IS the ABYSS. Now, the deep or the abyss can refer to anything that is DEEP, such as the bottomless pit, the expanse of heaven, the depth of the oceans, and the deep caverns in the earth. It can also be interpreted as a FLOOD that Bible scholars call the Luciferian flood to distinguish it from the flood of Noah which came later. Here are the core root words of the Hebrew word “tehom”, Strong’s number H8415, which is translated as “the deep” in the King James Version.


H1949

הוּם

hûm

hoom

A primitive root (compare H2000); to make an uproar, or agitate greatly: - destroy, move, make a noise, put, ring again.


H2000

הָמַם

hâmam

haw-mam'

A primitive root (compare H1949, H1993); properly to put in commotion; by implication to disturb, drive, destroy: - break, consume, crush, destroy, discomfit, trouble, vex.


So then, now with these other meanings of the “DEEP” or the abyss as meaning an UPROAR of surging water, let us read my own paraphrased version of Genesis 1:1,2 with the thought in mind that Lucifer is making WAR with God to trouble, agitate, and vex God to stir up His wrath AGAINST the turning uproar of one-third of the angels to make war with God. And then we can clearly see God cutting down Lucifer and the fallen angels from traveling freely in the heavens among the stars. And we can see that the earth became void and empty as a casualty of war so to speak when God FLOODED the earth in His wrath to end the REBELLION of Lucifer to try and take over God’s throne.


Genesis 1:1,2 as a paraphrased version could read as follows.


“In a new beginning after God cutdown a rebellion in the heavens and the earth.

2. And the earth BECAME VAIN, an undistinguishable RUIN and wasteland void and EMPTY of its inhabitants, and DESTRUCTION was AGAINST the DARKNESS that TURNED against God in the ABYSS of heaven, And the Spirit of God HOVERED over the FLOOD waters


One more thought to consider. Since God is coming in ten thousand of His CHARIOTS to end the war at Armageddon, it just occurred to me that the Spirit of God HOVERING over the floodwaters could mean God HOVERING over the floodwaters IN his flying chariots which in today’s terms we call UFO’S. Before you prejudge me to be a heretic because I believe that God has CHARIOTS that He RIDES IN please read the study “WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT UFOs?” 

But my point right now is that after the earth BECAME void no matter HOW that happened, God THEN began to RESTORE the earth to once again be inhabitable having in his mind to PROMOTE a REPLACEMENT as the NEW ruler of the earth who will eventually dethrone and replace Lucifer as the God of the whole earth. And the first thing God said is “Let there be LIGHT” having in His mind and plan of salvation His yet future Messiah, the LAMB slain BEFORE the foundation of the RESTORED earth as being the LIGHT of the world.

Let us read Genesis 1:3-5 from the LITERAL translation having in mind that the LIGHT is a PROPHECY of Jesus, the DAY is a prophecy of the righteous saints IN Jesus, and the night is the kingdom of DARKNESS. Keep in mind that God is in the process of DETHRONING Lucifer who was made a god over the earth by Yahweh Himself. And Lucifer ruled over the PRE-ADAMIC civilization and possibly many past civilizations BEFORE the human race was ever created. After we read Genesis 1:3-5 from the literal translation then we will look at some verses that clearly teach us that God did NOT create the earth in VAIN.


Genesis 1:3-5 from the LITERAL translation.


“And he is saying Elohim he (Speaking of God speaking forth the ALEPH-TAV that God created in Genesis 1:1 as God’s SPOKEN word of prophecy to be his Messiah to cut down the heavens and the earth at the end of days of the restored earth to make a FINAL END of Lucifer the Bible now calls Satan. So then, the spoken word of God) SHALL BECOME light and he (Still speaking of the prophetic spoken word of God) is BECOMING light. (Yes, I know that Almighty God Yahweh is LIGHT, but personally, I do not see Yahweh BECOMING light. Yahweh is the Father OF lights. And every good GIFT comes from the Father of lights. And God gave the Son of MAN Jesus to redeem the human race back to himself for as many who BELIEVE in God’s so great a salvation)

4. And he is seeing Elohim (ALEPH-TAV) the light that GOOD and he is separating Elohim BETWEEN the LIGHT and the darkness (Or WICKEDNESS)

5. And he is calling Elohim TO the light DAY. (Or God is CALLING TO the ALEPH-TAV, Jesus, light DAY or the children of the DAY) and to the darkness, he calls night (Or to those who choose the darkness or wickedness he calls night or the children of the night) And he is becoming evening (Possibly a hidden prophecy of Jesus becoming sin for us, as in, the iniquity of us all was laid upon Jesus) AND he is becoming morning (The bright and morning star) day one.”


Now, let us take a look at Isaiah 48:18 which to ME, absolutely proves the Gap Theory and the previous humanoid civilizations that inhabited the earth BEFORE the human race was ever created with Adam who was the very FIRST human being of the species of the human race.


Isaiah 45:18.


“For thus says the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he has established it, He created it NOT in VAIN, he formed it to be INHABITED: I am the LORD; and there is none else.”


Clearly, the creation account in Genesis is God RESTORING or RECREATING the surface of the earth to once again be INHABITED. But this time, God is making sure that there will be no more attacks on His THRONE. God has a PLAN that will END with RIGHTEOUS inhabitants of the NEW earth that will NOT rebel against God to seek to be equal with God as Lucifer did.  Let us now look at Genesis 1:13 which teaches us that God is REPLENISHING the earth and there is a hidden prophecy in that verse where God is replenishing the earth with a people who will be made in the IMAGE of God and his yet future Son, Jesus.


Genesis 1:26-28.


“And God said, Let us make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness: (This is Yahweh speaking TO his yet future Son and Yahweh’s NEW creation created IN his Son Jesus the Christ. For you see, the very next verse clearly teaches us that God ALONE and by himself created man in HIS own image as can be seen by all the SINGULAR pronouns. For you see, God knew His ENEMY, Lucifer, now called Satan, would deceive Adam and Eve to sin. But God had already PROPHESIED His yet future Jesus Messiah to be the LIGHT to come into the world who would be slain as a ransom to redeem the human race to himself) and let them have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth. (God gave Adam and Eve complete DOMINION over the earth as the earth’s NEW stewards. But when Adam and Eve sinned that dominion was stolen by Satan to become the REBEL god of this present world. BUT this interference by Satan now gave God the right to HELP mankind overcome Satan and reclaim that DOMINION over all the earth. God set down some laws for Satan and the fallen angel to not interfere with Adam and Eve knowing that Satan would violate God’s command of not interfering. So the plural pronouns “us and our” also refer to the angels, as in, God told the angels what He himself will do. In other words, here is what WE will do to prove to you that everything I create is PERFECT. We will make an inferior species of beings lower than you angels. And if they live without sin then I am going to destroy you Satan and all the angels that joined with you to attack my throne. But at the SAME time, God HID a PROPHECY that his yet future Messiah would read and understand that God needed him to obey him to fulfill God’s plan of salvation to die as an INNOCENT man. And had Satan known God’s full plan of salvation he would have never crucified the Lord of glory)

27.  So God created (The ALEPH-TAV) man in HIS own image, in the image of God created HE him; male and female He created them. (In other words, the ALEPH-TAV MAN is a hidden prophecy of God creating his Messiah in the IMAGE of RIGHTEOUSNESS. And not just righteous but as a righteous human who would never even THINK to seize or grasp by force to be equal with God. But this also means that God created Adam and Eve in perfect righteousness as well knowing the POSSIBILITY that Satan would deceive them. Please keep in mind that God created man a little LOWER to the angels to prove to the fallen angels that even an inferior species of beings can live without sinning against their creator.)

28.  And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and REPLENISH (ALEPH-TAV) the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.” 


Again, another hidden ALEPH-TAV prophecy of God declaring the END from the beginning of the founding of the restored earth. The same Hebrew word here in verse 28 that is translated as REPLENISH the earth with righteousness inhabitants. For you see, Lucifer corrupted the inhabitants in the pre-Adamic civilization and they were destroyed by the Luciferian flood. This same Hebrew word that is translated as REPLENISH in verse 28 is also used in Genesis 9:1 for Noah and his family to REPLENISH ALEPH-TAV the earth that was destroyed during the flood of Noah.


Genesis 9:1.


“And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and REPLENISH (ALEPH-TAV) the earth.”


In other words, God is PROPHESYING that in the END, the NEW earth after the end of the world to come, will be inhabited by RIGHTEOUS humans who will be made in the PERFECT image of God when we are made partakers of the DIVINE NATURE of IMMORTALITY at the coming of Jesus. And Jesus has already fulfilled some of the prophecies of God to become the FIRSTFRUITS unto God in the harvest of righteous humans who will INHERIT the worlds in the plural to come. There will be an age in the world to come that will last 1000 years. And then the age or the world after the Millenial age of 1000 years will be eternal. Let us now read a verse of Scripture that speaks of a PAST event but ALSO is a prophecy of the yet future fulfillment.


Please read Jeremiah 4:23-27.


I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. (Jeremiah is looking BACK in time at the destruction of the ancient civilization during the Luciferian age when God Himself SET Lucifer to be the guardian or the overseer of the earth. But at the same time, Jeremiah is ALSO looking forward in time to the yet future destruction of the earth. There will be SOME things in this passage of Scripture that will ONLY refer to the PAST destruction of the earth in Genesis 1:2. But other things in this passage of Scripture can apply to both the PAST destruction of the earth AND the yet future destruction of the earth)

24.  I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. 

25.  I beheld, and, lo, there was NO MAN, (Or there were NO MORTAL BEINGS. The Hebrew word translated as MAN here literally means HUMAN or MORTAL. It is the same word for Adam. So this verse is referring to the PAST destruction of the earth in Genesis 1:2. This was BEFORE the HUMAN RACE was created in Genesis 1:26-31 on the sixth day) and all the birds of the heavens were fled. 

26.  I beheld, and, lo, the FRUITFUL place was (Or BECAME) a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger

27.  For thus has the LORD said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.” 


Now some Christians argue that this passage of Scripture is only a yet future prophecy. But in the greater context, we can see God grieving over DESTRUCTION upon DESTRUCTION being CALLED for. Remember that Satan is the ACCUSER of the brethren as you read some more context of this passage of Scripture. Keep in mind that Jeremiah is a prophet and God puts His words into the mouth of the prophet. So the FEELINGS we see in Jeremiah 4:19-27 are the feelings of Yahweh.


Jeremiah 4:19-27.


“My bowels, my bowels! (Speaking of Yahweh being grieved so much the core of His very being is in pain) I am pained at my very heart; my heart makes a noise in me; I cannot hold my peace, because you have heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of WAR

20.  DESTRUCTION upon DESTRUCTION is cried; (The Hebrew word translated as is cried means to ACCOST Yahweh to destroy his people Israel. In other words, Satan, the ACCUSER of the brethren is calling out to Yahweh to destroy not only Israel but the entire human race) for the whole land is spoiled: (Or more precisely this phrase should read doubtless, the whole earth is OPPRESSED by you, Satan. Then God recounts the attack on His throne up in heaven to remind Satan that He has every right to destroy him) suddenly are MY tents SPOILED, and MY curtains in a moment. (Or suddenly MY IMPREGNABLE tent or TABERNACLE that I dwell in up in heaven was attacked for a BRIEF moment by Lucifer and the angels he drew to be in league with him. And MY curtains are God's HANGING spheres in heaven which were also attacked. Have you ever noticed the craters on the moon are straight down as if the moon was bombed? To me, if all those craters were made by meteors then they would be more at an ANGLE because the earth is a shield to the moon preventing a straight-on hit of a meteor. The Bible teaches us of a WAR in heaven. And to me, this is a REAL physical WAR. God is remembering the DESTRUCTION or the cutting down the earth BEFORE God created Adam. And then God is prophesying the yet future DESTRUCTION that will AGAIN because by Satan at the end of the 1000 year reign of Jesus when Satan is let loose out of the bottomless pit to deceive the nations one final time. So this PROOF that Satan is the cause of DESCRUSTION upon DESTRUCTION is the evidence that will convict Satan and the fallen angels to be destroyed in the lake of fire. And there will be no more SEA which means wickedness or evil in prophetic language. Please read the study “THE WAR IN HEAVEN-REVELATION 12!”)

21.  How long shall I see the standard, and hear the sound of the trumpet? (God knows how long it will be because Yahweh stretched out the LINE upon the earth. So I see God getting fed up with the ACCUSATIONS made by Satan calling for God to destroy his creation without CAUSE. I truly believe that Satan still thinks he can WIN this war with God. And God is tired of having to punish His people because of Satan’s deceptions to deceive them to sin)

22.  For my people are foolish, they have not known Me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise (Or cunning and subtle) to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge. (Or they do not understand what is at stake. They are ignorant of the destruction of the previous civilizations before Adam. And they do not choose to remember the destruction of the wicked in Noah’s day when that destruction with a flood REPENTED me that I even created the HUMANS and I had to destroy the wicked humans. And I was also grieved in my heart that I had to destroy the earth again by a flood)

23. I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. (Jeremiah is looking BACK in time at the destruction of the ancient civilization during the Luciferian age when God himself SET Lucifer to be the guardian or the overseer of the earth, But at the same time Jeremiah is looking forward in time to the yet future destruction of the earth. There will be SOME things in this passage of Scripture that will ONLY refer to the PAST destruction of the earth in Genesis 1:2. But other things in this passage of Scripture can apply to both the PAST destruction of the earth and the yet future destruction of the earth)

24. I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. 

25. I beheld, and, lo, there was NO MAN, (Or there were NO HUMAN BEINGS. The Hebrew word translated as MAN here literally means HUMAN. It is the same word for Adam. So this verse is referring to the PAST destruction of the earth in Genesis 1:2. This was BEFORE the HUMAN RACE was created in Genesis 1:26-31 on the sixth day) and all the birds of the heavens were fled. 

26. I beheld, and, lo, the FRUITFUL place was (Or BECAME) a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger

27.  For thus has the LORD said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.” 

 

The last phrase “yet I will not make a FULL END” is referring to the yet FUTURE destruction of the earth at the end of the 1000 year reign of Jesus. In the destruction of the earth in Genesis 1:2 in the PAST there was NO LIGHT or NO RIGHTEOUSNESS left on the earth in the Luciferian age.


Please read Jeremiah 4:23 again.


I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had NO LIGHT


Once you understand that Lucifer, now called Satan, is on TRIAL for falsely accusing God that He created Lucifer with prideful and rebellious nature. And, therefore, God has no right to destroy him and the angels that joined with him to make WAR with God, then you will understand why God created Jesus a little LOWER than the angels and HID His plan of salvation from His enemy Satan. 

Now, all of this may sound foolish to some Christians because God is God and He can do whatever he wants to do. But you see, God is a JUST God and IF God would have destroyed Satan right on the spot then all the FAITHFUL angels would have always wondered, what if Lucifer was right? Maybe God did create us flawed. So to END all wars once and for all eternity, God devised a PLAN to DETHRONE Satan and REPLACE him with a human that God would create a little LOWER and INFERIOR to the angelic beings and then EXALT for his obedience to do all the will of his God and Father. In other words, God is saying to Lucifer and the fallen angels that IF this inferior creation lives without sin then I have cleared my defamed name of creating you, Lucifer, as being FLAWED. And thus it is NOT my fault that you became filled with pride to make war against my throne.

Now, in this particular study, I am not going to write out all the verses of Scripture for you about this WAR in Heaven and WHY God created the human race, to begin with, because I already have in-depth studies on those subjects. Please read all the studies in the heading >>>WHY ARE WE HERE?-IS GOD AT WAR?<<<

But for now, I want you to read some verses of Scripture that clearly teach us that God is in the process of putting DOWN one and PROMOTING another in his place.


Please read Psalm 75:6,7.


“For PROMOTION comes neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. 

7.  But God is the judge: he puts DOWN one, and SETS UP another.”


Did you know that at first God ONLY charged His ANGELS with folly?


Please read Job 4:18.  


“Behold, he put no trust in his servants; and his angels he charged with folly:”


In other words, the fire that God prepared for eternal DESTRUCTION was ONLY prepared for the fallen ANGELS. God never intended HELL and the lake of fire to be for humans.


Please read Matthew 25:41.  


“Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire, PREPARED FOR the devil and his angels:” 


Then we read in Isaiah 5:14-16 that Hell has ENLARGED HERSELF meaning that God never ORDAINED any human to go to hell. But rather God SET a CHOICE before the human race to CHOOSE LIFE.


Please read Isaiah 5:14-16.  


“Therefore, HELL has ENLARGED HERSELF, and opened her mouth without measure: (Or Hell, the holding place of the wicked dead had to make herself more ROOM by opening her mouth WITHOUT the ENACTMENT or without a statue or a DECREE from Yahweh) and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoices, shall descend into it. 

15.  And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled: 

16.  But the LORD of hosts shall be EXALTED in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.” 


Here is how E-Sword defines the Hebrew word translated as “measure” in the King James Version.


H2706

חֹק

chôq

khoke

From H2710; an enactment; hence an appointment (of time, space, quantity, labor or usage): - appointed, bound, commandment, convenient, custom, decree (-d), due, law, measure, X necessary, ordinance (-nary), portion, set time, statute, task.


In other words, Almighty God did NOT DECREE anyone to Hell or to the lake of fire but rather God gave every human being a FREE WILL to make their OWN CHOICE of whether they will choose his so great a salvation or whether the will choose everlasting DESTRUCTION in the lake of fire.

Let us take a look at one more verse that to ME, proves the “Gap Theory” and the “PRE-ADAMIC RACE” before the human race was ever created.


Please read 2 Peter 3:3-7.


“Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days, scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 

4.  And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. (So this passage of Scripture is referring to God RESTORING the earth that was destroyed during the Luciferian flood. For you see, that is WHEN God devised His plan of salvation to have His yet future Lamb slain from BEFORE the FOUNDATION of the world which God kept SECRET from His enemy Lucifer who attacked God’s throne)

5.  For this, they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of OLD, and the earth standing OUT of the water and IN the water: (Or the earth was created NOT being FLOODED and then the earth BECAME void and empty of all its inhabitants. Please notice that the HEAVENS were of OLD or in ancient times)

6.  Whereby the world that then was, (Speaking of the world at the BEGINNING the BECAME void and empty of its inhabitants being OUT of the water BEFORE) being overflowed with water, perished: (Now, some Christians are not even aware of the Luciferian flood and the world that was THEN becoming void and empty of its inhabitants so they interpret this passage of Scripture as being the flood of Noah. It may be that Peter is speaking about BOTH floods. But to ME, Peter using the phrase “from the BEGINNING of CREATION” and the HEAVENS being OLD leads me to believe that Peter is referring to the Luciferian flood. In other words, Peter was giving us a clue to go read the creation account.)

7.  But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the Day of Judgment and perdition of ungodly men.” 


Let us go back to the Genesis account and continue reading where we left off on day one of the first of days of God's restoring order. If you remember God DIVIDED the LIGHT from the darkness or wickedness on the first day. And God is calling TO the ALPHA-TAV Jesus LIGHT the DAY, and God called the darkness the night, as in, the children of the night.


Please read 1 Thessalonians 5:5.


You are all the children of LIGHT, and the children of the DAY: we are NOT of the NIGHT, nor of darkness.”


Now, please read Genesis 1:6-31 one verse at a time with my comments in between each verse.


Genesis 1:6.


“And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, (Or to SEVER the waters) and let it divide the waters from the waters.”

 

We have already seen in Genesis 1:3-5 how God has hidden PROPHECY about his Messiah being the LIGHT and how God is calling to the DAY to come to the light. And the people who reject the light are called darkness and night. So with that in mind let us read Revelation 17 which teaches us that the WATERS can be speaking about PEOPLE or living beings.


Revelation 17:15.


“And he said unto me, The WATERS which you saw, where the whore sits, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.”


With the hidden prophecy in mind, I am seeing that the firmament of the first heaven is the BOUNDARY line for the wasting WATERS speaking of Satan and his fallen angels to keep them bound to the earth and the atmosphere of the earth. And the waters ABOVE are the good angels making sure Satan does not breach that boundary of the firmament of the earth’s atmosphere. And the waters are also LITERAL waters as you will see in a moment.

Genesis 1:7.  


“And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.”


Again, the waters speak of Satan and his angels below the firmament as his boundary line. And the waters above the boundary line for Satan and the fallen angels. But God allows the good angels to come down to the earth. However, at times, they have to FIGHT their way through as you can clearly see in Daniel 10:1-14 which you can look up and read on your own.


Genesis 1:8.  


And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.”


The reason that I emphasized the phrase “And God CALLED the FIRMAMENT HEAVEN” is that some Christians use these verses of Scripture of God dividing the WATERS to teach that the FIRMAMENT is a hard solid impenetrable DOME over the FLAT earth. But the meaning of the Hebrew word translated as heaven means BOTH the atmosphere of the earth AND the HIGHER ether we call Outer space where the sun, the moon, the stars, and the planets are located. But some “flat earther” Christians believe that the sun, the moon, and the STARS are UNDER the dome of the flat earth.

Here is how E-Sword defines the Hebrew word translated as heaven which is what God Himself called the shamayim that is translated as the FIRMAMENT.


H8064

שָׁמֶה שָׁמַיִם

shâmayim shâmeh

shaw-mah'-yim, shaw-meh'

The second form being dual of an unused singular; from an unused root meaning to be lofty; the sky (as aloft; the dual perhaps alluding to the visible ARCH in which the clouds move, AS WELL AS to the HIGHER ETHER where the celestial bodies REVOLVE): - air, X astrologer, heaven (-s).


In other words, there is the FIRST heaven of the SKY in the daytime. And there is ALSO the VISIBLE ARCH in the NIGHT SKY that is HIGHER than the atmosphere of the earth. So since God, Himself called the FIRMAMENT heaven and there is a lower AND a HIGHER FIRMAMENT then no INTERPRETATION of Genesis 1:17 can be dogmatic to mean that God set ALL the LIGHTS in the FIRST firmament under a so-called hard solid impenetrable DOME over the FLAT earth. We will come back to this when we get to verse 17. But for now, let us move on to Genesis 1:9.

 

Genesis 1:9.  


“And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.”


And prophetically speaking, at the end of the 1000 year reign of Jesus, all the wicked waters will be gathered unto one place on the final Day of Judgment. But this verse is also speaking about the literal EVAPORATING of the FLOOD waters to EXPOSE the already existing LAND to appear once again and become dry so the earth can be habitable once again. God is not creating for the first time dry land to come into being on the earth of only water. But rather, God is RESTORING the dry land that was FLOODED during the Luciferian flood of God's WRATH against Satan.

 

Genesis 1:10.  


“And God called the dry land Earth; (Or the ground, as in, the dirt which we also call earth at times. This Hebrew word also means FIRM) and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.”


Again, we can see a literal gathering of the literal waters of the literal seas of literal water. BUT we can also see a spiritual prophetic meaning. The word “sea” is sometimes used in the Bible to speak prophetically of the WICKED people. Please read the following verses of Scripture.


Isaiah 57:20.  


“But the WICKED are like the troubled SEA, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.”


Jeremiah 51:42.  


The SEA is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof. (The word FLOOD is also used as referring to ARMIES)

43.  Her cities are a desolation, a DRY land, and a wilderness, a land wherein no man dwells, neither does any son of man pass thereby.”


Isaiah 60:5.  


“Then you shall see, and flow together, and your heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the SEA shall be CONVERTED unto you, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto you.”


Ezekiel 28:2.  


“Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, (Which is a figure of Satan) Thus says the Lord GOD; Because your heart is lifted up, and you have said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, IN the midst of the SEAS;  (In other words, Satan is the god of the FALLEN world that are dead in their sins. I, myself, do not see Satan’s throne in the middle of the literal seas) yet you are a man, and not God, though you set your heart as the heart of God:”


Revelation 21:1.  


“And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more SEA.”


Now, we know with absolute certainty that there will be NO MORE WICKED people in the new heaven and the new earth. So to ME, I am seeing that the word “SEA” here is also prophetically speaking of no more WICKED people rather than no more LITERAL seas. So while the WATERS in Genesis 1:10 gathered into one place from off the FLOODED earth that became void and empty is indeed speaking of the literal Sea, I just wanted my readers to know that the word “sea” can also mean WICKED people or UNSAVED people.


Genesis 1:11-13.  


“And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. 

12.  And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 

13.  And the evening and the morning were the third day.”

 

These three verses could mean that God is RESTORING the SAME kind of plant life that was on the earth before the earth became void and empty. Or these three verses can mean that God is RESTORING the earth with NEW plant life that will be compatible with humans.


Genesis 1:14-19.  


“And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: (Please notice that these lights are not NAMED. In other words, because we already know that the greater light that rules the day is called the sun we read right over these verses and miss the prophetic meaning of the GREATER light as being Jesus. The word “sun” does not appear until Genesis 15:12. And the word “moon” does not appear until Genesis 37:9)

15.  And let them be for LIGHTS in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 

16.  And God made (Or God APPOINTED) two great lights; the greater light (Almighty God appointed) to rule the day, and the lesser light (Almighty God appointed) to rule the night: he made (The words “he made” are not in the original text. So God appointed)  the STARS ALSO

17.  And God set (Or God APPOINTED) THEM (Speaking of ALL the LIGHTS including the billions of STARS) in the firmament of the heaven to GIVE LIGHT upon the earth, (Remember that God is RESTORING the LIGHT or the RIGHTEOUSNESS upon the earth PROPHETICALLY. And at the same time, God is literally RESTORING the physical earth that BECAME void and empty of its inhabitants. God’s PLAN of salvation is to REPLENISH the earth with a new species of beings that he will create a little LOWER or inferior to the ANGELIC beings that rebelled and made WAR with God. Why would God go BACKWARDS when creating the human race? Please read the study “UNDERSTANDING WHY?” But for now, God appointed the greater light, Jesus to rule the children of the DAY. But God ALLOWED the LESSER light Satan to steal Adam’s dominion to be the REBEL god of the FALLEN world until day and night come to an END. Please read Job 26:10, “He has compassed the waters with bounds until the day and night come to an end.Or God set boundaries for Satan and the fallen angels until the end when God divides darkness, the children of the night from the LIGHT, the children of the DAY. So then, God APPOINTED the two lights)

18. And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. 

19.  And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.”

 

Now, some Christians INTERPRET Genesis 1:14-19 as meaning that God placed the sun, the moon, and the STARS in the firmament of the FIRST heaven called the SKY which they sincerely believe is on the INSIDE of a hard solid impenetrable DOME covering the FLAT earth. 

But that is an INTERPRETATION that I, myself, do not see agrees with ANY other part of God’s word. In fact, the “flat earther” INTERPRETATION actually CONTRADICTS verses in the Bible which clearly teach us that God’s throne is HIGH up in heaven at the HEIGHT of the STARS. And since the heavens belong to the Lord and he gave the earth to the children of men, then that means that all the STARS are located in the SECOND heaven. Please read the following two verses of Scripture.


Psalm 115:16.  


The heaven, EVEN the heavens, (Speaking of the second and the third heavens that are ABOVE the first heaven of the earth) are the LORD'S: BUT the earth has he GIVEN to the children of men.”


Job 22:12.  


Is not God in the HEIGHT of heaven? and behold the HEIGHT of the STARS, how HIGH they are!”


Now, if so be that the earth was FLAT and the STARS were in the first heaven which is the ATMOSPHERE of the earth then Job 22:12 would read “Is God not in the LOW heaven? And behold the LOWNESS of the STARS how LOW they are!” which is the exact OPPOSITE of what the Bible ITSELF actually teaches us. So the INTERPRETATION made by the “flat earther” Christians is in ERROR because it CONTRADICTS other verses in the Bible.


Genesis 1:20-23.  


“And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, (In other words, let the living creatures in the waters who SURVIVED the flood continue to live and replenish the waters may very well be a possible interpretation) and fowl that may fly (Or and the birds that have flown that may be faint from swooning) above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. (Again, the words, MAY fly leads me to believe that verse 21 is speaking about the fish in the sea and the birds in the air that SURVIVED the Luciferian flood which I believe covered the earth much LONGER than the flood of Noah. But there would have been floating debris in the flood water to give rest to the birds that survived. Then in verses 22 and 23 we see God actually CREATING living creatures in the sea and in the sky to MULTIPLY to REPLENISH and FILL the earth)

21.  And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 

22.  And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and FILL (Or multiply and REPLENISH)  the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth

23.  And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.”

 

Genesis 1:24-31.  


“And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so. (Since there was no ARK that we know of during the Luciferian flood and the earth was made EMPTY then I myself, must interpret these verses as God creating NEW animal life on the earth. Now some of the animal life MAY be the same as it was during the pre-Adamic civilizations before God ever created the human race)

25.  And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 

26.  And God said, Let us make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness: (Again, this is Yahweh speaking TO his yet future Son and Yahweh’s NEW creation created IN his Son Jesus the Christ. For you see, the very next verse clearly teaches us that God ALONE and by Himself created man in HIS own image as can be seen by all the SINGULAR pronouns. For you see, God knew His ENEMY, Lucifer, now called Satan, would deceive Adam and Eve to sin. But God had already PROPHESIED the Jesus Messiah to be the LIGHT to come into the world who would be slain as a ransom to redeem the human race who BELIEVE to Yahweh) and let them have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth. (God gave Adam and Eve complete DOMINION over the earth as the earth’s NEW stewards. But when Adam and Eve sinned that dominion was stolen by Satan to become the REBEL god of this present world. BUT this interference by Satan now gave God the right to HELP mankind overcome Satan and reclaim that DOMINION over all the earth. God set down some laws for Satan and the fallen angel to not interfere with Adam and Eve knowing that Satan would violate God’s command of not interfering. So the plural pronouns “us and our” also refer to the angels, as in, God told the angels what we will do. We will make an inferior species of beings lower than you angels. And if they live without sin then I am going to destroy you Satan and all the angels that joined with you to attack my throne. But at the SAME time, God HID a PROPHECY that his yet future Messiah would read and understand that God needed him to obey him to fulfill God’s plan of salvation to die as an INNOCENT man. And had Satan known God’s full plan of salvation he would have never crucified the Lord of glory)

27.  So God created (The ALEPH-TAV) man in HIS own image, in the image of God created HE him; male and female HE created them. (In other words, the ALEPH-TAV is a hidden prophecy of God creating his Messiah in the IMAGE of RIGHTEOUSNESS and as a righteous human who would never even THINK to seize or grasp by force to be equal with God. But this also means that God created Adam and Eve in perfect righteousness. Please keep in mind that God created man a little LOWER to the angels to prove to the fallen angels that even an inferior species of beings can live without sinning against their creator.)

28.  And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and REPLENISH (ALEPH-TAV) the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth. (Again, another hidden ALEPH-TAV prophecy of God declaring the END from the beginning of the founding of the restored earth. The same Hebrew word here in verse 28 that is translated as REPLENISH the earth with righteousness inhabitants. For you see, Lucifer corrupted the pre-Adamic civilization that was destroyed by the Luciferian flood is also used in Genesis 9:1 for Noah and his family to REPLENISH ALEPH-TAV the earth that was destroyed during the flood of Noah. Please read Genesis 9:1, “And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and REPLENISH (ALEPH-TAV) the earth.” In other words, God is PROPHESYING that in the END, the NEW earth after the end of the world to come, will be inhabited by RIGHTEOUS humans who will be made in the PERFECT image of God to be made partakers of the DIVINE NATURE of IMMORTALITY. And Jesus has already fulfilled some of the prophecies of God to become the FIRSTFRUITS unto God in the harvest of righteous humans who will INHERIT the worlds to come. Let us now read a verse of Scripture that speaks of a PAST event but ALSO is a prophecy of a yet future fulfillment)

29.  And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you, it shall be for meat. 

30.  And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to everything that creeps upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so. 

31.  And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.”


Now, most Christians believe that God FINISHED creating man on the SIXTH day and then God RESTED on the SEVENTH day. BUT when you read the LITERAL translation you will see that God PROPHESIED on the seventh day that he WILL BE FINISHING the work that he did IN the SEVENTH day THROUGH his Son, Jesus. In other words, the seventh day of Yahweh's REST is in the FUTURE during the millennial reign of Jesus.


Here is the LITERAL translation of Genesis 2:1-3.


“And they are BEING FINISHED the heaves and the earth and all the host of them.

2. And He IS FINISHING Elohim IN day the SEVENTH the work of him which he did and he is ceasing IN day of SEVENTH all work of him.

3. And He is blessing Elohim (APEPH-TAV, Jesus) DAY of seventh (Or Almighty God Yahweh is blessing his ALEPH-TAV Messiah Jesus to be the Lord of the SABBATH to rule FOR Yahweh for 1000 years) and He is making Holy (ALEPH-TAV) him (Speaking of sanctifying the Aleph-Tav Son of MAN, Jesus) that IN HIM (Or IN Jesus ruling FOR Yahweh during the 1000 year-long Sabbath of Yahweh) Heceased from all work of Him which He created Elohim to DO.


In other words, Almighty God Yahweh CREATED the Son of MAN, Jesus, and sanctified Jesus. Yahweh's eternal Spirit dwelling in Jesus empowered Jesus to offer himself as a spotless innocent man. And that is why Yahweh could highly exalt the Son of MAN, Jesus, to become the Elohim or the God of the whole earth to rule FOR Yahweh as the Lord of the SABBATH while Yahweh RESTS during the yet future 1000 year-long SEVENTH day. In the beginning, was the word or SAYING and the word or saying was WITHIN Yahweh and the SAYING was GOD or let there be a God of LIGHT and RIGHTEOUSNESS to replace Lucifer as the God of the earth. And that is what the SON OF the living God will INHERIT the worlds to come.

If you would like to go deeper into the word of God to learn more about the “GAP” theory and the previous civilizations that were on the earth for many thousands of years BEFORE God ever created Adam and Eve then please read all the studies under the heading >>>WHY ARE WE HERE?-IS GOD AT WAR?<<<

Thanks for reading and may God bless you richly as you continue to seek the TRUTH of the WHOLE word of Almighty God.
