Chapter 2
Gen 1 3-4
And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. And God saw that the light was good.
Let there be light is not the big bang. The Holy Spirit and the cherubim as we saw had been putting everything together. Working with the substances in the deep. Getting the heavens and atomic matter into their correct state. If everything was set up, then this “let there be light” was the sun igniting. If this was the sun igniting, then we would expect to see things start to happen. The first would be the earth starts to spin.
Gen 1 5
And God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
His appears simple enough until you look a little closer. Firstly, day one ends with morning and begins with evening. This means that there is no beginning to the first day. Was the first week seven days or seven billion years? The answer is both could be true. All we know for certain is there was around 20,000 years from when they first put together the heavy elements to today's date.
The next issue we get is how do you get mornings and evenings? That happens with the rotation of the earth. The sun ignites and starts blasting the earth with radiation. If you have ever seen a ball balanced on a water fountain or a flow of air, it spins. The same thing happens with the earth when pushed by the solar winds created by the sun. This may have taken many years for the spinning to start. But as we will see no more than four years.
Gen 1 6-8
And God said, “Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.” 7And God made the firmament and separated the waters that were under the firmament from the waters that were above the firmament. And it was so. 8And God called the firmament Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day.
We saw the Holy Spirit was hovering over the waters or on the outside. One of three who have lived outside the great deep. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. This place where they existed is the original heaven and we no idea about it. This place is beyond human understanding. Even talking about it leaves me with a fear I am being sacrilegious. The firmament is in the deep and there are waters or atomic structures either side of it.
This firmament, what is it, and can we find it anywhere? It is not the appearance of dry land, as that happens next by name. It says there are waters under the expanse and above it. So we need to go upwards.
The first thing we come to is the clouds and the sky. The sky having its various spheres like stratospheres/troposphere etc. While there is some argument for this being the firmament, it is not a good one. Let’s go higher. Further out you get various radiation belts. Like the notorious Van Allen Belt, the causes so many problems about whether man went to the moon. It is incredibly dangerous to humans, and we have no substance on earth that can stop the radiation killing astronauts. Still not really a firmament. We will keep on travelling. We keep going and going until we think it's time to go home, then we start having trouble moving forward. Furthermore, we have come to a thing called the heliosphere. We are not the first from earth to reach the heliosphere. Ten years ago Voyager 2 reached it and a year later Vouyager1. Because of the different roots they took to get there, Voyager 2 arrived first. Voyager 2 started two slow stopped and was repelled out and is now drifting back across the solar system. They made Voyager 1 come in at an angle, but it could not penetrate the heliosphere and is now travelling around the edge of the heliosphere. There were many articles at the time about this, and I found them most fascinating. Although, suddenly, NASA changed the story a few years back to they both travelled through the heliosphere and are now in open space. What was it telling us that NASA did not what us to see. NASA has been accused of this skulduggery many times and on many subjects.
Anyway, back to the heliosphere. Here is something that is called a firmament in space. A barrier out past the main planets like Neptune exist. Past the Kuiper Belt, where planetoids like Pluto live. The Kuiper Belt follows out to the heliosphere but does not penetrate it. It just kind of banks up against it, then follows up and down from there. The Kuiper Belt follows out a long away following the edge of the Heliosphere, almost to the centre of the solar system. The fact that the Asteroids in the Kuiper Belt cannot penetrate the Heliosphere backs up the early articles saying what happened to the Voyagers.
The Bible says there are atomic structures on the other side of the firmament, but they are not infinite. It is infinite outside, but not the atomic world. The Holy Spirit hovers over the waters. Modern science says these atomic structures exist and it is called the Oort Cloud. The atoms in the Oort Cloud also formed planets and rocks and ice and gases. They formed together to make wonderful patterns. We see them as distant galaxies, but they are only the Oort Cloud. The cloud seems to cover the whole sky, but there are gaps. In these gaps, there is only blackness. When you see pictures of this blackness, you are truly looking into infinity. You may be thinking they have shown that these Galaxies are moving away from us at great speed. However, it is not the Oort Cloud that is moving away, but the effect the firmament is having on light. Not all things are moving away from us. The objects that are closer to us are moving towards us. The reason is that as light enters into the Heliosphere, it is slowing down or going into the blue shift. The slowing of light by the Heliosphere also backs up the early stories about what happened to the Voyagers. Anything on this side of the Heliosphere shows blue. Objects just appear to be moving toward us. As the light gets through the Heliosphere, it starts to sped up again. Back to its normal sped, a limit put on it by causality. When the light hits any object on the other side of the Heliosphere, it will show a red shift. The Oort Cloud is not speeding away from us, though almost certainly it is spinning around the outside of the firmament.
God called the firmament heaven. Will we now have four places we call heaven, plus places we call the heavens?
Original Heaven.
A place outside the great Deep. Realm of the Father/Ancient of Days, Jesus/Jehovah/Son of Man and the Holy Spirit/Kasbeel, and we cannot comprehend this place.
Primary Heaven/Firmament/Heliosphere.
The Primary Heaven within the Great Deep. Primary dwelling place for Seraphim, Cherubim, and Ophannim. The three types of angel. Jesus and the Holy Spirit mainly live here. The place where Enoch the recorder of history, Elijah and Moses live here. The place they worked out of before the Earth was formed. Known by the name Atlantis.
First Heaven/
Realm of the Dead. Sheol and consisting of the grave, the barrier, Hades, Death and at the centre The bottomless pit.
Second Heaven
The home of rulers, and the authorities, the cosmic powers over this present darkness, and the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
The wicked spirits that torment us on a day-to-day basis.
Third Heaven
Paradise, the place we go to when we die if we have accepted the gift of salvation.
The Lake of Fire
There is one other place and that is the Lake of Fire. The Bible describes this place as here the flames are eternal and the worm never dies. This place is forever. We get a new heaven and a new earth, but not a new hell. For this place is and has always been and always will be.
The planets and stars.
The sky and the clouds.
