    How is their frozen dark water in the universe, surrounded by the Spirit of God, before the creation story?

    Mike Gyver, about the division of the waters during the Creation time, where the Warters were placed above "heaven" is speaking of our water in the sky, which is basically a lot. He had it in a great place of early time. If you read in the Genesis, it says it did not rain, but had due to water the plants. When the flood of Noah's time came, God opened the gates and let the water come back to Earth as the Flood. After this went by, God set in evaporation to gradually send the waters into the atmosphere in the form of clouds. Then is when rain began. It is a gradual pace over the Earth, so there will never be another Flood of the sots in Noah's time. We do have floods dome of the time, on some of the Earth, but not all at once. People cause the floods by turning away from God. Just as with droughts and storms. When people start obeying God in life, He blesses us with good weather.

    Dear Mike Gyver,

    The Godhead made the heavens and the earth. So, Genesis is saying that all that exists, whether earthly or heavenly, whether made of physical matter or are of spiritual substance was made by and for Himself. So, Before the beginning of creation, only the Godhead existed.

    It says that God made the heavens first, and then the earth. So, it may be that He made the heavenly, spiritual realm first, then the physical realm. We do not know all that God created in our physical universe, nor all that He created in the spiritual realm. We are discovering some of what is out in space bit by bit, but some reaches of the universe we will never know in this life.

    After God made the heavens and the earth, Genesis said that the earth was void and covered with water. And the Spirit hovered over the waters before God continued to create the habitat and inhabitants of the earth.

    I do not read in this account where there is frozen dark water out in space. Can you cite your source for that? If this is true, then the Genesis account does not reveal this, we have discovered it through scientific exploration.
  • NOW and THE END OF TIME__mishael - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 2 years ago
    Heaven existed before God began creating. Everything wonderful and beautiful; mysterious and plain, came out of God. He is the Great God of all wonders!

    How cannot we worship and love the God who made all we know? Our souls came from Him. When we give ourselves fully to Him, He comes and makes his abode within our hearts, and abodes with us.

    We are completely conscious that he's in our heart, mind and soul. The Creator of all that we know of. Merciful and Kind.

    He is Holy. Our souls know this, but sometimes the fleshly, earthy part of us can rebel against true reality, that humans are not gods. We were born to be the receivers of the love He desires to give to us.

    We cannot be gods ourselves apart from God. This is what Satan tried to do. his future is completely recorded in the Bible.

    God exists inside of Time, and outside of Time.

    He knows you and desires that you will choose to live with Him in Heaven. We will see Him every day.

    After all the end times wars are fought between nations_it will be finished. 2 Peter 3, teaches that Earth will be burned up. All of man's scars upon it will be burned. God will re-create it again. Those who chose Jesus to save their souls, will return to the New Creation.

    What will be different is that Satan the Destroyer will be chained up in hell 1000 years. He will be let out to tempt the people who who survived the horrors of the Tribulation (physically), and called on God to save them. They will still be human. In Heaven they will have that 1000 years to choose Jesus as Savior and Lord. Satan will try to recruit them to fight against God, one more time. It's a short period of time.

    At the end of that war in heaven, Satan and those who fought With him, will be judged. Satan will be thrown into the Lake of Fire eternally. That's his final END. He will never escape again.

    Choose Jesus NOW. Everything I wrote is scripture in the Bible. I saw Jesus at my salvation in a vision. HE IS ALIVE!!

    Hi dear Mike Gyver, Now you think earthly. Our home country is in a different dimension in a way. See: Ephesians 6:12-18 and Hebrew 4:12

    If you want to study this correctly, you will understand that the sky is more than what the eye can see. We need everyone to look up to this Kingdom of God. Good luck with your studies. God loves you in the name of Jesus, i in christ.
