Fallen Watchers part seven
PRE-ADAMIC TIME
The intellectual war of the last millennium, has been raging this past century between two opponents and one subject, "evolution". The outcome of this war so far has shown, that the "atheist" is wrong because he doesn't know God, and the average Christian is wrong because he has been taught "doctrines of men", and has not truly searched for the truth in Gods Word. The answer to the dilemma of "millions of years", as opposed to "6000" has ALWAYS been found in the bible.
The main sensitive point for most Christians is not so much the "time" element, as to the "creation" vs. what the world perceives as "evolution" when it comes to MAN. I will say this right off the top, man did NOT "evolve" from a monkey, bug, slug, or any other utterly ABSURD idea of the like. I for the life of me, will never understand how someone can even "entertain" this notion. Never the less, lets see what really IS truth. The area of concern I first want bring to your attention is "time".
A careful study of scripture indicates that the "Word" is centered around the time-frame of God's 6,000 year plan for mankind before the millennial reign of Christ. There are many strange verses in the scripture that cannot be understood via modern theology. Modern theology eliminates these verses out of their doctrines because they "do not fit".
"In
the beginning God created the heaven
and
the earth. 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".
(Genesis 1:1-2)
|
in the beginning #227 "az" beginning, from now,
|
God created #1254 "bara" a prim. root, to create, select, do, dispatch, make |
the heaven #8064 "shamayim" outer space, the 2ndheaven, celestial space |
and the earth #776 "erets" a world |
YHVH "spoke" and the world's WERE, and it WAS GOOD! No matter how you slice it, something "happened" before God created the present "state" of the earth. There are MANY verses to allude to this very fact.
"And
God blessed them, and God said unto
them,
be fruitful and multiply, and
R
E P L E N I S H
the
earth..."
(Genesis 1:28)
The word "replenish" here is [Strong's ref. 4390 mala]which means to be full, fulfill, satisfy, be expired, accomplish. Our English translates this word as meaning "to redo what was once done", obviously. The fact of the matter is, there is no "use" of the word "plenish" in the bible. This does NOT mean that it is not a word that appears in the Hebrew, it just means its NOT BEING USED!. The textual intent by itself implies WHAT IT IMPLIES! But enough of this, lets listen to David sum it all up in one verse of a Psalm:
"Thou
sendeth
forth thy spirit
(Gen.1:2),
they
are created
(Adam
& Eve): and thou
R
E N E W E S T
the
face
of the earth".
(Psalm 104:30)
David is summing it up pretty simply. You do see that word "renewest" don't you? Yup, thats what it means, the "face of the earth was RENEWED!". O.k., renewed from what? The Flood.
The word used here is [Strong's ref. 2318 chadash, khaw - dash; a prim. root; to be new, to rebuild, repair, renew], so there's NO mistake!. Well, let's go on then. We know that something "major" happened to the face of the earth. Are there any traces of what happened? Does God say anything about this elusive time period?. You betcha:
"I
beheld the earth, and, lo, it was
WITHOUT
FORM, AND VOID;
and
the heavens, they had no light".
(Jeremiah 4:23)
"I beheld, and, lo, theFRUITFUL
PLACE
was
a wilderness, and all the
C
I T I E S
were
BROKEN DOWN
at the
presence of YHVH,
and by his fierce anger".
(vs. 26)
Well, I'm out to lunch right about now you say...right? Don't be so fast to doubt, the "Word" is not through here. If you are to believe what I've shown you so far, than this verse is implying that there were CITIES in the "fruitful place" before the "event". But there wasNO"man", noAdam according to the translation, he was not yet created. Remember, that the face of the earth was covered with water in Gen.1:2. The only "inhabitants" spoken of anywhere here are "birds" so far, and it would seem to imply that the CITIES belonged to the BIRDS!. Let's go on.
"Behold, YHVH maketh the earth
EMPTY
(void),
and
maketh it
WASTE,
and
turneth it
UPSIDE
DOWN,
and
scattereth abroad the
I
N H A B I T A N T S
thereof".
(Isaiah 24:1)
"Then
the earth
shook and
trembled;
the
foundations
also of the hills
moved and
were
shaken, because he was
wroth...
he
bowed the heavens also, and came
D
O W N:
and
darkness
was under his feet (Gen.1:2)".
(Isaiah 18:7-9)
STONES OF FIRE
As I've shown earlier, there are many little details that can be passed over, if you don't spend the time digging things out. One of the biggest questions to be raised about Ezek. 28, is "where" are the events taking place. In heaven? study this passage and you'll find that it CANNOT be so. These verses are referring to within the boundaries of the universe. There is detail in the description of the location where Satan "the ANOINTED cherub" is located. If we look close enough, we might even find exactly "where":
"Thou
art the
anointed
cherub that covereth;
and
I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy
mountain
of God; thou hast
walked
up and down in the midst of
THE
STONES OF FIRE".
(Ezekiel 28:14)
|
thou hast walked #1980 "halak" to walk, abroad, prosper, spread, journey, to haunt |
up and down #4605 "maal" the upward
part,
|
in the midst #1459 "gav" the middle, midst, among,increase, be majestic, be risen |
|
of the stones #68 "eben" through the mean. to
build,: |
of fire #784 "esh" burning,
fiery,
