As we have explained, this was due to Satan’s Sin in The First Earth Age. There had to be a reason for Him to take such action. Simply meaning, there was no “dry land” which completely aligns with the state of the earth as outlined in Genesis 1:2 9 until “the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters,” during the Seven Days of Genesis.įor our Father to create the earth in ‘perfection’ and then destroy “The World That Was” by covering the earth in water means something happened. Scripture provides us with even more clarity and detail by explaining there was so much water it “stood above the mountains”. Meaning, it was not covered with water before, but “became” covered in water, “became without form, void” and full of “darkness” as we learned in Genesis 1:2. While Psalms 104:5 explains our Father “laid the foundations of the earth” in the beginning, verse 6 explains He then covered the earth with water. I am sure one day our Father will provide us with these details.Ħ “Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.” When this took place is unknown to mankind, it could have been millions or even billions of years ago. Scripture makes it clear, the earth will never be removed, (Genesis 8:22). Jehovah, our Heavenly Father laid the foundations of the earth “in the beginning” as Genesis 1:1 documents. We are going to turn our Bible to the book of Psalms, and we should understand Psalms 104:5-30 perfectly overlays with Genesis 1:1-31.ĥ “Who laid the foundations of the earth that it should not be removed for ever.” Our Father is gracious enough to provide us with multiple witnesses to the facts we have covered so far. The World That Was “Became” Covered In Water He formed the earth in perfection, but it “became without form, void,” and full of “darkness” due to Satan’s Sin in “The World That Was”, “before the heavens and earth which are now.” These facts bring harmony to the Scriptures. Isaiah 45:18 perfectly aligns with Genesis 1:2 when we understand “was” should have been translated “became”. Scripture makes it abundantly clear, our Father “is not the author of confusion,” He is not the Creator of “a desolation,” “but of peace” and ‘perfection’, (1 Corinthians 14:33, Psalms 18:30). Our Father is the Potter who molded the earth into form, He “established” (Strong’s: H3559) the earth which means He “perfected” it, (Isaiah 64:8). “To mould into a form especially as a potter”. Instead, He created the earth with “form” (Strong’s: H3335) which means, Jehovah, our Heavenly Father is telling us plainly, He did not create the earth “vain,” He did not create the earth “without form”. God did not create the earth “in vain” (Strong’s: H8414) which is the same Hebrew word we find in Genesis 1:2 being “without form”. He did not form the earth “without form, void”, full of “darkness” and covered in water, nor could life emerge from the earth if it was “an indistinguishable ruin”. He formed the earth for people, animals, insects, and plants to thrive. Our Heavenly Father “formed” the earth to be inhabited. 18 “For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens God himself that formed the earth and made it he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD, and there is none else.”
