Genesis 1 “The Creation”! (Part 2)

Genesis is the seed plot or the beginning of all things.  Genesis is the genetics of God.  We are looking at the replication of God’s DNA from the book of Genesis to the book of Revelation.  In Genesis we are looking at God reproducing Himself.  When you look at the make-up of your body, you have the DNA, and there are different levels of the RNA.

The DNA is God because He is the beginning, the start of all things. Everything in creation came forth out of GOD.

The RNA is the Son.  But let’s look at the genetic make-up of the cell.  The RNA is a replica of the DNA.

There are three types of RNA molecules that function in the cytoplasm of cells.  These are messenger RNA, transfer RNA, and ribosomal RNA.  All three types are made within the cell nucleus by using information contained in “DNA” as a guide.  (Acts 17:28): For in him we live, and move, and have our being!

There are four types of RNA produced within the nucleus by genetic transcription: precursor messenger RNA (which is altered within the nucleus to form mRNA); messenger RNA (which contains the code for the synthesis of specific proteins); transfer RNA (which is needed for decoding the genetic message contained in mRNA); and ribosomal RNA (which forms part of the structure of ribosomes).

 Ribosomes are composed of ribosomal RNA and proteins.  Proteins are the building blocks of the cells.

The DNA is God.  Another word for “parent” is “precursor”. The “precursor” has to be altered within the nucleus to form the “messenger RNA”.  The “precursor” is God the Father, changing Himself into the messenger RNA who is Jesus.  John 1:1: In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Verse 14: And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.

Then you have the “transfer RNA” who is the Holy Ghost because the transfer is the part of the DNA that decodes the genetic message that is contained in the messenger RNA.  In order for us to understand who Jesus really is, the Holy Ghost has to make us aware or reveal to us that revelation (or understanding).  John 16:13:  Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth:  for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak:  and he will show you things to come.

Then you have the ribosomal RNA, which is the church!  The body of Christ!  1 Corinthians 12:12: For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body:  so also is CHRIST! 

Ephesians 4:30: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 

Colossians 1:18: And he is the head of the body, the church:  who is the beginning, the firstborn of the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

When we look at Genesis, we are looking at the genes or the genetics of God!  It is God replicating Himself!  He’s the Creator!  As the “precursor”, He is making Himself flesh so that He can become that “physical messenger”, the Word becoming flesh.  Jesus was the Word made flesh!  So are we the Word made flesh!  Ephesians 4:30: We are members of his body, of his flesh and of his bones. Then the Holy Ghost is the teacher.  The Holy Ghost brings to our remembrance whatever it is He is teaching us as we read and study the word of God (John 14:16).  As the Holy Ghost does this, He (God) is building that ribosome, the church, so that we can last and do what He has ordained us to do as a “body”!

So beginning in Genesis, we are looking at God reproducing HIS AWESOME SELF!!!

In relation to our Creator, no Theologian or Scientist can improve on the introduction of the account of creation in the beginning.  How can you improve on what is already perfect?  Some of the names of God are Elohim, Infinite Strength, and Absolute Faithfulness.

In Chapter 2, “LORD” is introduced as Jehovah.  Often in the Bible, the Holy Spirit uses Elohim to refer to Him (God) when He is dealing with the physical universe.  The name Elohim is used because He’s Creator and is always translated as God - capital “G”, small “o”, small “d”.  When you see the word God in the Old Testament, it’s from the Hebrew word Elohim.  However when God is dealing with His people, the word Jehovah is translated as LORD in all capitals.

 The Story of Noah is a good illustration of this when you read Genesis 6:2 and 7:1, verse 6, 16.  Note the two names used for God.  When God is dealing with the animals, the name Elohim is used, but it is Jehovah who shuts them in the ark.  God’s relationship with His people is different from His relationship with other creation.  Different, because of all His creation, He chose to manifest Himself in man!  Man is God in flesh form!

• John 1:1:  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  Verse 2:  The same was in the beginning with God.  “Same” is from the root word hou’tos, meaning he (she or it), these, this man, they, he, it was that, this (same, woman), which, who.
• Verse 14:  And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us. Jesus was with God in the beginning, and so were we!

When you look at the word “creation”, this tells us that something has been “created”. To “create” means to make; to cause to come into being.  John 4:24:  God is a Spirit.  
1 John 1:5:  This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.  Since God is Spirit and God is Light, everything came out of the “light”.

As we look at Elohim, our Creator of the universe, He’s Spirit and He is Light.  Genesis 1:1 says, “In the beginning God (Elohim) created the heaven and the earth”.  That was the physical creation of all physical matter.  Matter is that which makes up the substance of anything.  Matter is that which is material and also that which is physical.  It occupies space and is perceived by the senses.  So all of creation was done through the “light”, which is God expressed later as Jesus Christ who was the physical expression or physical form of that Spirit light (God).

 Everything that we see in creation and everything that is solid is a physical expression in solid form of the Spirit light.  So everything came out of “light” because as we read in those scriptures, God is Spirit and He is Light.  So everything came out of the “Light”.

The decay process is part of the creation that comes into discord, disagreement or opposition with the Spirit Light.  In God is no darkness at all, and anytime something opposes Him, darkness sets in!  Now we can understand why the church is walking and groping in darkness.  It hasn’t really come into agreement with the Spirit Light that is in them. They have God off up yonder beyond the blue!

When it comes to atoms, everything you see (chair, book, cup, etc) comes from atoms.  Atoms do decay yet they never pass into non-existence.  They pass from one form to another, begetting that which is to follow, joining with another atom and forming another kind of solid form.  They don’t die but decay and lose their power, or they gain or lose an electron and becomes and “ion”, but they join up and form another kind of substance.

Malachi 3:6:  I am the LORD, I change not.

Hebrews 13:8: Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.

Because God never changes - once we totally become tuned and balanced with God, with the light, we shouldn’t have to change either.  So you see what death is?  Death is a changing process.  If we become totally tuned to the God light or the God that is light, we shouldn’t have to change.  Some folks think that folks have to die, but we don’t have to.  Enoch didn’t die.  He became so tuned (harmonized, came into total agreement) with the light or with God that he was able to command the atomic structure of his own body.  When God was finished with him in the physical body, he transformed the atoms in his body back into light form.  He moved from that which was physical to that which was spiritual. 

When Elijah was translated, he just changed his body into light form which was able to come back out of light form and appear in physical form on the mountain of transfiguration because he had control of his body through the light (Luke 9:30).  That’s how tuned he was with God.  Listen, Moses died, but Moses knew of the Light, he knew something about the "light"!  He had a relationship with God. That’s why it says in Act 7:37  This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me.  Moses knew something.  He knew that the light of the Creator, Elohim God, would speak to his atomic structure of his physical body and transform it back into light form.  That’s where we came from - out of light!                           
1 Thessalonians 5:5:  Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day:  we are not of the night, nor of darkness.

Then he (Moses) also appeared on the mountain of transfiguration in physical form.  Neither Elijah nor Moses nor Enoch passed into non-existence!!!!

Those who are able to walk into and out of the spirit with bodies that can eat are those that made it into the level of "immortality and incorruption"! 

• Genesis 18:1-8 [the visitors that visited Abraham]:
• Luke 24:39-43: [Jesus Himself after His resurrection ate fish and honeycomb].

Everything came out of the light; everything we see in creation.  Our body can become so tuned with God that it becomes Him or the “word in the flesh”.  Wasn’t that what Jesus was?  He was the Word made flesh! 

That’s the physical body being in harmony, in agreement with the light - God.  The hormones are closely related to harmony.  They are in essence the harmony of the body, the physical body.  “Hormone” is a chemical substance that is produced in an endocrine gland and secreted into the bloodstream to cause an effect in a specific target organ. When your hormones get off balance, we are out of tune. “Homeostasis” is the dynamic constancy of the internal environment, which serves as the principal function of physiological regulatory mechanisms.  Different things can develop in the body such as illnesses, etc., that can throw the body off balance.  That’s in the physical.  How much more in the spirit if we are not in harmony with the light of God?
Genesis 5:24: Enoch walked with God and "was not; for God took him".                  

God "took", "laqached" (received, mingled, enfolded, grasped, took hold of) Enoch so, that he didn't become nonexistent, but defied death, and continued on as a messenger for God.  His name in Hebrew is Chanowk', meaning, "initiator; teacher, instructor; discipline; train up".  He had the ability to continue to teach and admit, usher, or bring others as members into the place of dominion and authority in God, so they too could rule and reign on or over the earth.

When we are in tune or in harmony with the Spirit Light, we have authority to command our cells, and they do not have to die to become totally tuned with immortality. 

Religious people think they have to die to go to heaven and get a new body.  They are out of tune.  God is immortal; yet He became flesh in Jesus.  He was immortal before He became flesh!  He was immortal after He put on flesh!  And He was immortal even after He finished with the flesh!  He never changed His immortality just because He was in a flesh body.  That’s why He said in John 10:18:  No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. 
 Pilate didn’t know he was talking to the one who created him, and he was telling the Creator that he (Pilate) had the power to decide whether He (Jesus) would live or die.  Pilate didn’t know that he was living because of who he was standing there talking to.

God is Spirit.  He is not a physical structure!  He doesn’t want to become an individual flesh body!  He wants to remain Spirit!  He has the power to continue on as He is even though He put on flesh!  But He was still able to retain His identity as God!  God is Spirit Light, and He organizes the atoms and brings them to be in whatever He wants and the form that He wants.  We are a product of our Creator, Elohim, who is Light, so that makes us light.  That’s why it says in 1 Thessalonians 5:5:  Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.  When it says “children”, it’s not talking about tek’non, meaning, you are not just produced and brought forth on a natural level, and you are not ne’pios, meaning you are not simple-minded or immature, but you are huios, meaning you are a son.  Being huios, this Greek word stresses the quality and essence of one so resembling another that distinctions between the two are indiscernible.

Hebrews 1:1-5: God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express (when something is expressed, it is shown as a representative or is manifested) image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.

Meaning He was put in a place of power! He is not off beyond the blue sitting on the right hand of the Father because the right hand symbolizes a place of power!  Jesus is already established in that “place of power”!  Matthew 28:18:  And Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, “All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth”.  1 John 4:17:  As he is so are we in this world.

Genesis 1:26:  And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness

Huios means sons of God, and we know that everything in creation came out of light.  So when you look at the condition that the creation is in, the problem is not with the creation; the problem is with the sons of God who are not where they are supposed to be doing what they should be doing, and that’s ruling and reigning over the creation.

• Romans 8:19:  For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. 
• Verse 22-23:  For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.  And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the first-fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption (placing as sons) to wit (know), the redemption of our body. 

Psalm 82:1-5:  God stands in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.
2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked?
3 Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.
4 Deliver the poor (not necessarily those who are lacking and needy; but “poor” also means to dangle; hanging over something.  There are those hanging over the bottomless pit of religious order due to the lack of nourishment that “truth” will give them, and those of us that have received it (the truth) must go and rid them out of the hand of the wicked (the Pharaoh’s [religious leaders] that’s holding them in bondage).
5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course. 

“Course” means to waiver (vascillate or fluctuate, hesitate or sway; doubt; fall; decay).  God’s people have been removed from the place God had them initially, and that’s in a place of dominion, authority, and power. 

•  1 Corinthians 15:58: Therefore, my brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

Verse 5  all the foundations of the earth - When you look at the earth from a telescopic view, there is nothing holding it - no strings to keep it in place, no bricks or cement blocks sitting under it to hold it in place.  So what are these foundations of the earth that are “out of course”?

God is talking about His people here.  His people are the foundations (base; support) on which the creation depends to execute the power and authority that God has given them to have dominion over all things so that things can function as God ordained them to.

In Genesis 1:28, God didn’t give the man (male & female) a “job” to do - He gave them a command to have dominion!  We have been given a command to have dominion - Luke 10:19: Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy:  and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 

Psalm 82:5: They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course. 

What does it mean when He said “They know not” - even when God sent a messenger to them, they rejected them because they thought they knew it all or acted as if they did.

• Matthew 23:31 [Jesus is speaking to the Pharisees]: Wherefore you be witnesses unto yourselves, that you are the children of them which did kill the prophets.

We have no excuse to be unlearned in the scriptures according to 2 Timothy 2:15: Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

And anybody can do that or should anyway and the Holy Ghost will help us to gain understanding. 

Revelation 1:3:  Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein:  for the time is at hand.

“Readeth” means “to know again”.  This word “read” doesn’t mean knowing how to pronounce words. “Know again” means we knew who we were in the beginning with God, but we had to put on flesh as Jesus did and overcome the flesh as Jesus did. We now understand 1 John 4:17 “As he is, so are we in this world”!

Now we have to move from that which gives way to “humanity” and move back into the place of our “divinity”, by putting on the mind of Christ.

God has rubbed our eyes with eye salve so that we can see who we are now.           
Revelation 3:18:  I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eye-salve, that thou mayest see.

He has awakened us to the “truth” of our purpose and that is to manifest God in the earth! We were with Him in the beginning as Jesus was.

• John 1:1:  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  Verse 2:  And the “same” (that was us, His sons, male and female) was in the beginning with God.   Verse 14: And the Word was made flesh.

Some will never get this revelation while they are in flesh form.  God will have to strip some of them of the flesh, like He did the rich man in Luke 16, and move them into the spirit realm so He won’t have to deal with their flesh, or the part of them that wants to fight and oppose God. 

Keep in mind what Abraham said to the “rich man” in Luke 16:25:  Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime received thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things:  but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. 
(Lazarus was Jesus in the bosom of the “Father” and the rich man typified the religious group).  If you notice he called him “son”:  John 1:11:  He came to his own and his own received him not.  Verse 12:  But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God.

Now is when God wants us to get hold of this truth, the “revelation” of the fullness of Christ in us, right here and right now, in this life!!!  When we get hold of it, then we can keep our garments.  Blessed is he who watcheth and keepeth his garment [that body God has given you to live in] (Revelation 16:15).

Psalm 82:5: They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness:  (misery, ignorance, destruction, ruin, death), all the foundations of the earth are out of course. 

“All the foundations”: meaning those that God had put as a basis (support; headquarters; footing to build upon). These were the “morning stars” and “sons of God” that were in charge of the creation in the beginning!

• Job 38:4: Where was thou when I laid the foundations of the earth?
• (Verse 7): When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
  These were “people” (male & female) that were God’s agents, ambassadors, or spokes persons in the earth, ruling and reigning as God!

When you build a house, you have to have a foundation.  If there is a crack in the foundation, the house becomes unstable.  These messengers allowed a crack to come in their foundation and lost their divinity and fell back into their humanity! 

Jude 6: And the angels (messengers – people) which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation.
[This happened in the beginning even before “Adam” came on the scene].

God is mending the house, and He is starting with the “foundation”.  The foundation is not laid with bricks or cement blocks..  This foundation is Christ according to 1 Corinthians 3:11:  For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ! 

So what foundations is it that is out of course?

Job 38:1-6:  Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

2 Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?
3 Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me. (God is talking to Job)
4 Where was thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if thou hast understanding.
5 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? Or who hath stretched the line upon it?
6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? Or who laid the corner stone thereof?

Didn’t God say in Genesis 1:24:  And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature.

 To understand what the living creature was, you have to go to Ezekiel 1:3-5:

• (3) The word of the Lord came expressly unto Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the Lord was there upon him.
• (4) And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire in-folding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the color of amber, out of the midst of the fire. 
• (5) Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man.

So in Genesis 1:24, God told the earth to bring forth the man (mankind - male and female)! So the “foundations” were people.

Job 38:4 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth?

“Laid” means, set or appointed; ordained; called them by name.  It means, where were you, when I put this thing in place, Job?  When I put these people in the place of dominion, authority, and power, where were you?  When I laid the foundations - (Hebrew word yacad – “the beginning work”)?  Where were you when I laid this beginning work?  

Job 38:4:  Declare, if thou hast understanding.

Job 38:6:  Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened?  This word “foundation” in verse six is a little different from the word “foundation” in verse 4. 

A few months ago I asked the class if they knew of an “Eden” that was in the book of Job?  It had to do with this word “foundations” which comes from the Hebrew word ‘eden (pronounced eh’ den). 

The Garden of “Eden” comes from a different Hebrew word which means to be delicate or voluptuous.  This word “foundations” in verse six is also “eden”, pronounced “eh’den” meaning strength, but it goes to another root word adown (aw-done’), meaning to rule; sovereign, (in relation to) controller (human or divine).  Where were you Job when I had these sovereign people ruling and reigning in and over the creation?  Sovereign means ruler with supreme power or a monarch - a person who reigns over a kingdom or empire. 

Back to Job 38:6:  Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened?  

(Meaning where are they settled) or who laid the corner stone thereof (means chief ). 

Judges 20:2:  And the chief of all the people, even of all the tribes of Israel, presented themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen that drew sword. 

The Hebrew word that it came from, pinnan, is used of a chief as the corner or defense of the people. 

The ruler over a government is just like a cornerstone.  The word “stone” is eben meaning to build or a stone; a construction material; to repair; to set up; to have children (not necessarily give birth but beget; you can beget children and not give birth to them; you beget those who are already birthed and you help bring them to spiritual birth); to construct or establish. 

So the stones were and are the people of God.  They were then, and we still are now!

• 1 Peter 2:5:  Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
• Verse 6:  Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, behold, I lay in Sion a “chief corner stone”, elect, precious [Jesus Christ Himself]:  and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.

God is the same now as He was then.  Malachi 3:6:  I am the LORD, I change not.

He had some stones in the beginning, and He’s got some stones now!!

Job 38:6:  Or who laid the corner stone thereof. 

Jesus was the Lamb, slain from the foundation of the world (Revelation 13:8).

He was the “Corner Stone” then, and He is the “Corner Stone” now!

Between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2, there was a world going on.  And they had come forth out of the light! Remember that everything we see in solid form came out of the Light, God Himself.

In the beginning God had kingdoms set up, nations in place, people ruling and reigning.  He had some ‘edens (foundations – powerful people) even then.

In this place, “eden” is divine health, perfect peace, wisdom, knowledge, understanding, counsel, reverence of God, eternal life, power, dominion, authority, joy, ruling, reigning, etc.  Hallelujah!!!

Job 38:7:  When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy? 
The morning stars were the stones who had stepped out in the dawn of creation with the Word of God in their mouths, ruling and reigning as gods (God). 

“Morning” comes from the Hebrew word meaning dawn, as the break of day: (when those that had God’s blood in them were proclaiming “truth” that would free God’s people from the bondages of religious order even then); to plow: (break up the fallow ground and implant the seed of God’s Word into the womb of God’s people that gave life)! 

When the morning stars sang - “sang” means to shout, usually, for joy or to cry out. 

What did God tell Isaiah in Isaiah 58:1:  Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgression and the house of Jacob their sins. 

[That’s what these “morning stars” and “sons of God” were doing then].

Job 38:7: And the “sons of God” shouted for joy.  “Shouted” means to mar by breaking or split the ears with sound. 

These “morning stars and sons of God” were sounding the trumpet (speaking with the voice of God) that filled the minds of the people with the truth of God’s Word that ripped out of them the devil’s message and tore down Satan’s kingdom even then, and we must do the same thing now!!! 

That’s what God is doing now through those who have received the revelation of the message of the kingdom.  We are splitting the ears of the people whom God sends us to with the sound of the message of the “fullness of CHRIST in us now, not beyond the blue!  By splitting the ear, this means that God is causing the “old” (poison water-message of religious order) to dry up and fall away or the “old man” to die so that the “new” (living water) can cause the “new man” to live!!! 

• Colossians 3:9-10: “Lie not one to another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his deeds; and have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him”.

These “morning stars and sons of God” were the ones who stepped out on the dawn of creation with the power of God ruling and reigning over the creation.

I believe that Lucifer was one of the morning stars.  When you look up his name in the Hebrew, it means “morning star”.  There were world governments in power between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis1:2.

Isaiah 14:12:  How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

(“Son” means builder of the family name).  These were “sons” (male & female) that were builders of the name of “Jehovah” in God’s kingdom. The “gods” were about God’s business!

Verse 3 For thou hast said in thine heart: (this is where the darkness came in - but when we are totally in tune or in agreement or harmony with the light, there is no darkness):
 I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:  (he couldn’t sit there; that was God’s place; the sides of the north is also where the church is):

Verse 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds: (this is not talking about cumulus or stratus clouds); I will be like the most High.

Lucifer’s pride got in his way and everything was “I”, “I”, “I”, and it got him in trouble with God!!!

God had decorated Lucifer with His wisdom and power.  Lucifer’s pride got in the way, and God hates pride.  Lucifer moved from that which was the spiritual form to that which was physical.  He began to operate in his humanity instead of his divinity.  Because of this “I” “disease” that Lucifer had God brought him down!

 It is one thing when God put you up, but it’s another when one tries to “self-exalt”!  You are then out of order, but God knows exactly what to do! 

• Psalm 82:6: I have said, “You are gods; and all of you are children of the most High”!                                                      God is “THE MOST HIGH”!!  “Most High” is from the root word “Elyown” (el-yone’), meaning the elevated one; lofty; the Supreme; the Highest; upper; above.

Lucifer wasn’t some “angel” with wings flying around covered with diamonds as I believed from the preaching I’d heard, but Lucifer was “a man”!

Isaiah 14:16:  They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, “Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms”.

“Man” comes from the Hebrew word iysh which means to be extant (still in existence, not lost or destroyed; surviving).  Lucifer lost his position!  He left the spiritual and went to the physical.  Even though they were people, they were “gods”, but Lucifer’s pride caused his downfall.  When he fell, he took a third of the angels with him - those who took on the same spirit or attitude.  There are “Lucifer’s” in existence today!

There was a social system going on even then.  2 Peter 3:6:  Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished.  Not just the one in Noah’s day.  There was a flood between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2.  This just doesn’t embrace the Adamic universe only but also when Lucifer acted up.  The earth was under a flood of judgment.  There’s a “flood” going on today, a “flood” of false doctrine that has drowned and destroyed many of God’s people.  But the “Kings of the East”(Revelation 16:12), the sons of God the creation is waiting for [Romans 8:19]), by preaching the fullness of the truth of the Word of God to His people, are going to dry up the great river Euphrates (doctrines of religious order) that the “kings of the earth” (Revelation 17:18), has given them.

Hebrews 11:3: Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

Ecclesiastes 1:9: The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done:  and there is no new thing under the sun. 
Verse 10: Is there anything whereof it may be said, “See, this is new”?  It hath been already of old time, which was before us.

In Genesis 1:2:  And the earth was without form, and void. 

There were people that had form - the form of God (His character; wisdom; power): (but they lost it – they became without form)!

Form is from the root word tohuw, meaning, confused, a worthless thing, an empty place, until God’s Spirit moved upon them! They were in the place of power but they became without form.

Verse 2 And darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face [countenance] of the waters [people].

 These “waters” were not the Pacific or the Atlantic, but they were people!!

• Revelation 17:15:  The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

Ezekiel 28:12-13:  Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord God; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God.  

Here we are in the book of Ezekiel 28 and with Lucifer in Isaiah 14. The Garden of Eden is in Genesis.  If The “Garden of Eden” was a flowery garden with trees where Adam and Eve were running around naked, in Genesis, according to religious teaching, what is this king in Ezekiel doing in Eden and how did He get there?

So this lets us know that the Garden of Eden was not a “physical garden”, but it was a “spiritual garden”!  It was a place of dominion, authority and power, just as “heaven” is today, a place of power and dominion!!

Being “religion” believes that the “serpent” was a snake in the book of Genesis I’m going to say this! If the “devil” had had any sense, instead of using a venomous snake, he would have used a Boa constrictor that constricts (bind; squeeze; compress; choke; strangle), that way he could have broken the bones, the structure (framework; composition] of the church.  He would have broken the bones which gives the body structure.  He used a venomous snake, and that was a good thing in the sense that with the venom - when the Doctor gives intravenous medication, it goes directly into the veins.  What the poison of the serpent did was (I’m speaking spiritually) it got into the blood stream of the “woman” (the church).  Listen, everything we eat or drink, we take in by mouth and even the air we breathe we need to sustain life, for it to be utilized in the body it has to be distributed throughout the body through the blood stream.  So the enemy put the poison in the bloodstream of the “woman” (the church) - (I’m speaking spiritually), but God had something to counteract the venom - the blood of Jesus!! 

So the “serpent” was not a “snake”, the “serpent” was Satan Himself!

• Revelation 12:9: And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world:  he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.  (Revelation 20:2): And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years.

Here in Revelation, he is called that “old serpent”, because it’s the same devil that deceived “the woman” in Genesis, but now in Revelation he has developed into a “dragon”!  But he is yet defeated!

• 1 John 3:8: He that commits sin is of the devil; for the devil sinned from the beginning.  For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil!!!

Ezekiel 28:13: Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes (your voice; what you had to say was good) was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so (God had put him up): thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
19 All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.

In Ezekiel 28 God brings down the king of Tyrus:  God set his face against Pharaoh king of Egypt in Ezekiel chapter 31:8-11: The cedars in “the garden of God” could not hide him:  the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chestnut trees were not like his branches:  nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty.  I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches:  so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him. 

God had people in position even then in “the garden of Eden”!  It was a place of dominion, authority, and power!  And those that got the “big-head” as Lucifer, God brought them down!!

2 Peter 3:6-7:  Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:  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. 

There were some “ungodly” men then as there are now!  Even in Noah’s day with the flood, it destroyed the ungodly - not the godly.

• 2 Peter 2:5:  And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly.

There was a world, a social system happening even then, but the earth became without form and darkness was upon the face of the deep.

• Genesis 1:1:  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 (the abyss - the deep - which God’s people had fallen into and is now fallen into, was and is a vacancy; empty place; void).  And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters (people - not the ocean). 
• Revelation 17:15:  The waters which thou sawest, where the whore (the false church system-religion) sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. 

Genesis 1:2:  The Spirit of God moved upon the face (the paniym, countenance) of the waters (the people).

Verse 3:  And God said, Let there be light. 

When God said “Let there be light”:  [He was calling back into creation what had been before, which were “men” (male & female) with His wisdom, knowledge, and power, ruling and reigning in the earth!]

This “light” was not “day light” from the Sun, but actually it was the very “life” of God Himself radiating through “man (male & female)!!! 

• John 1:1:  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 
• Verse 2: The same (Us) was in the beginning with God.
• Verse 3: All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. 
• Verse 4:  IN HIM WAS LIFE; AND THE LIFE WAS THE LIGHT OF MEN!

In the creations then, there were things happening as they are now.  Now we are experiencing what God’s people went through even then, but Jesus has come and given us total victory over all that the “morning stars, sons of God” lost and what Adam lost!

 We must believe, and receive the fullness of God’s Word and walk in it by faith!!

1 Corinthians 15:22:  In Adam all die; even so in Christ shall all be made alive!

Ecclesiastes 1:9-10:  The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be done:  and there is no new thing under the sun.  Is there anything whereof it may be said, See, this is new?  It hath been already of “old time”, which was before us.
