Life On Other Worlds

[Shiny Gospel Shoes]

Life on Other Unfallen Worlds, Other Unfallen Life, already existed before Genesis 1, the heavens were "stretcheth out" [Isaiah 40:22, etc] to make room for us:

In the Book of Hebrews, written by Paul the Apostle, we see that he makes mention of these other “worlds” [αιωναςG165 N-APM] that exist in the “heavens” [ουρανοιG3772 N-NPM], and even the “so great a cloud of witnesses” [μαρτυρωνG3144 N-GPM] which consider the events transpiring on earth [each Greek word is in the plural]. In 1 Corinthians these “witnesses” are those which watch us, and so we, on this earth, are a “spectacle” unto them. In the Book of Daniel we see even a “watcher and an holy one” come down from “heaven”, and further still many more are mentioned, as they give a judgment, “This matter [is] by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones”. In Colossians, Paul speaks about “all things created, that are in heaven...visible and invisible, whether [they be] thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers...”.

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; Hebrews 1:2

And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: Hebrews 1:10

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. Hebrews 11:3

Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset [us], and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Hebrews 12:1

For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men. 1 Corinthians 4:9

For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether [they be] thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: Colossians 1:16

I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and, behold, a watcher and an holy one came down from heaven; Daniel 4:13

This matter [is] by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will , and setteth up over it the basest of men. Daniel 4:17

And whereas the king saw a watcher and an holy one coming down from heaven, and saying, Hew the tree down, and destroy it; yet leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and [let] his portion [be] with the beasts of the field, till seven times pass over him; Daniel 4:23

I saw in the night visions, and, behold, [one] like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. Daniel 7:13

Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here [am] I; send me. Isaiah 6:8

Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. Genesis 11:7

In the Book of Job, we see passages which clearly reveal other beings, not of this world, but of another, for here it is given of the “sons of God” which “came to present themselves before the LORD”, and “Satan came also among them”. Now this was no earthly meeting of men, for GOD even asks [not that God does not know, but here was a point to be made in the Great Controversy that was ongoing] of Satan, “Whence comest thou?” and Satan directly answers in his boastful replies in two places, “From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.”, and so that we may further know it was no earthly meeting, this meeting took place “before the LORD”, whom we know is in Heaven.

As a quick aside for a moment, why would Satan say such a thing to God?

It was because he was saying that he was 'Lord of the Earth', and that it was his domain, that he walked up and down the breadth and depth and height of it [just as God told Abraham to do in Canaan [“Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee.” Genesis 13:17], and also to Moses, and Joshua and the Children of Israel in the promised land [“Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.” Joshua 1:3]...for it was promised to them, walk up and down the breadth of the land...], and all was his dominion...yet God, pointed out that not all was his [Satan's] as he made claim, for there was a man named Job, a servant of the LORD, who was upright, that feared God and shunned evil...

Satan, then after coming to this meeting [since he was claiming to be representative of this earth, since he has claimed dominion of it ever since Adam and Eve fell unto him, therefore the “god of this world” [2 Corinthians 4:4] and even the “prince [ruler] of this world” [John 12:31, 14:30, 16:11]], then went out back to earth as he “went forth from the presence of the LORD”. Additionally, we see further in the Book of Job, that these particular “sons of God” existed before this Earth [World] was created, for when God created it [Genesis 1 and 2], we see that “the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy”:

Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them. Job 1:6

And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. Job 1:7

And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that [there is] none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? Job 1:8

Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought? Job 1:9

Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. Job 1:10

But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face. Job 1:11

And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath [is] in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD. Job 1:12

Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD. Job 2:1

And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. Job 2:2

And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that [there is] none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause. Job 2:3

And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life. Job 2:4

But put forth thine hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face. Job 2:5

And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, he [is] in thine hand; but save his life. Job 2:6

So went Satan forth from the presence of the LORD, and smote Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown. Job 2:7

Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof; Job 38:6

When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy? Job 38:7

And he said, Hear thou therefore the word of the LORD: I saw the LORD sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left. 1 Kings 22:19

And the LORD said, Who shall persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramothgilead? And one said on this manner, and another said on that manner. 1 Kings 22:20

And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the LORD, and said, I will persuade him. 1 Kings 22:21

And the LORD said unto him, Wherewith? And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou shalt persuade [him], and prevail also: go forth, and do so. 1 Kings 22:22

Now therefore, behold, the LORD hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and the LORD hath spoken evil concerning thee. 1 Kings 22:23

But Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah went near, and smote Micaiah on the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of the LORD from me to speak unto thee? 1 Kings 22:24

Again he said, Therefore hear the word of the LORD; I saw the LORD sitting upon his throne, and all the host of heaven standing on his right hand and [on] his left. 2 Chronicles 18:18

And the LORD said, Who shall entice Ahab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall at Ramothgilead? And one spake saying after this manner, and another saying after that manner. 2 Chronicles 18:19

Then there came out a spirit, and stood before the LORD, and said, I will entice him. And the LORD said unto him, Wherewith? 2 Chronicles 18:20

And he said, I will go out, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And [the LORD] said, Thou shalt entice [him], and thou shalt also prevail: go out, and do [even] so. 2 Chronicles 18:21

Now therefore, behold, the LORD hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets, and the LORD hath spoken evil against thee. 2 Chronicles 18:22

Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and smote Micaiah upon the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of the LORD from me to speak unto thee? 2 Chronicles 18:23

So we see that once Adam and Eve fell [in Genesis 3], Satan had again some access to the Gates of Heaven again [for he now claimed dominion, even though God was still owner], even though after the “war” in “heaven” he had been “cast out” and was now “fall[en]”, and even Jesus says of that moment, “...I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.” [Luke 10:18]. It was only at the Cross [wherein was “the power of his Christ”], that Satan was permanently “cast down” to this earth, and the “dragon” was now “come down unto” us from courts in Heaven, knowing he had but a “short time” left, and so a “woe” is upon those of the “earth”. Notice who then is to “rejoice” at this event and news, it is verily the holy unfallen beings, in the “heavens”, for it states even “ye that dwell in them”:

And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. Revelation 12:10

Therefore rejoice, [ye] heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. Revelation 12:12

And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. Revelation 13:6

 

[Shiny Gospel Shoes]

Heaven is a real tangible place, with real tangible beings, real worlds, real tangible trees, rivers, even a city, mountain of God, Mt. Zion, etc, and there was at one point even “war” there between Michael [Jesus] and the Dragon [Lucifer/Satan], and they “fought”, but the danger is that many are 'spiritualizing' it away, into airy-non-things, which is a deception of satan to get us to cease from hoping in the real reward. In fact, the old saying that the devil seeks make men disbelieve in his own existences, is true, and this is but one aspect of it, for he first puts out the idea that he is less than tangible than he really is, a non-corporeal entity, a gaseous non-being, a formless essence, merely a figment of aether, and then he is half-way gone into fables, and people no longer take his existence seriously. Jesus knows better, and clearly speaks the truth about him..:

And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, Revelation 12:7

Satan, once known as “Lucifer” [aka, “heylel”], very “son of the morning”, the “anointed cherub that covereth” [“the Ark of His Testament”; Revelation 11:19, “the tabernacle”; Revelation 15:5] who was the highest created angel of all Heaven before “iniquity was found in” him and he “sinned” [see also John 8:44; Jude 1:6; 2 Peter 2:4]. He, even though still “beautiful”, but now dying [for only God is immortal, and he is separated from God], though he may still appear “as an angel of light” [2 Corinthians 11:14], had once dwelt in the very presence of God, even in that Heavenly garden “Eden” and had “walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire”. Satan is a real tangible being, not a gaseous non-entity, not incorporeal, but a once-exalted and glorious being even once clothed with “every precious stone”, even “the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold” and his voice once beautiful in song, for it is written that “the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.” Satan, even in his own heart declared that he would “sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north” on the very mountain of God, Mt. Zion in Heaven, and “exalt” his “throne above the stars of God”, over every other creature of Heaven.

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! Isaiah 14:12

For thou hast said in thine heart, 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: Isaiah 14:13

I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Isaiah 14:14

Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. Isaiah 14:15

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. Ezekiel 28:12

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 was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. Ezekiel 28:13

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 [wast] perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. Ezekiel 28:15

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. Ezekiel 28:16

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. Ezekiel 28:17

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. Ezekiel 28:18

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. Ezekiel 28:19

Heaven is as real as you or I, how do we know? A question and scripture:

“Since Jesus rose from the dead, was he raised in immortal flesh and bone and to where did He actually ascend to afterwards and what is He doing there now?”

Jesus was forever raised as an immortal man with “Flesh and Bones” [Luke 24:39] so that the disciples could “handle” Him and that He could “eat”.

Jesus, who spake of the raising of the “Temple of His Body” [John 2:21; Revelation 21:22], was Raised Bodily [John 2:19,21, 20:12; Luke 24:3,6,39,43, etc] unto Immortality as the type of the Uncorrupted Manna in the Wilderness foretold [Exodus 16:5,22-25], and in the Psalms, that He would “not see corruption” [Psalms 49:9; Acts 2:27,31, 13:35].

Most of modern Christianity and the world has greatly been led into the deception of satan on this very important subject and thus have allowed it to be “spiritualized” away [and the Messenger of the LORD warns against burning these truths up in the “fires of spiritualism”, for in so doing, God, His Throne and the very Tabernacle of Heaven, the Ark and Tables of God's Law of Heaven, along with Jesus High Priestly ministry vanish into nothing, and all hope is then lost]. The very Truth of the matter is being slowly forgotten and erased because many have and are even now allowing satan to interweave deception into theology ... and so they have allowed him to have phantomized it ... incorporealized it ... turned it into fables ... and thus stealing away the reality of the reward...

We shall eat from that Tree of Life and drink from that pure river of water of Life...

The Elders, Angels and other Sons of God are not “incorporeal” phantoms and Satan is a very, very real and tangible being, but that means so is Heaven very real and tangible!

Jesus, Himself said, “In my Father's house are many mansions: if [it were] not [so], I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.” [John 14:2]

Did not Jesus “ascend”? Where did He go to? A very real place...

“And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, [there] ye may be also.” [John 14:3]

Do you believe Him? Have faith in what He says and in His Words, and cease from holding onto the lies that satan would have you to keep. Lies that seek to cut out from under us the very pillars of salvation, and also to steal away our very real reward, our very real “crown of life”!

Where is the “Tree of Life”?

It is in Heaven [Revelation 2:7, 22:2,14, etc]

What is upon it?

“Fruit” and “Leaves”. [Revelation 22:2]

Where is the “Pure River of Water of Life”?

It too is in Heaven. [Revelation 22:1]

There is even the “Temple of God”, that “True Tabernacle which the LORD pitched and not man” [Hebrews 8:2] and the “Ark of His Testament” in Heaven. [Revelation 11:19]

The Angels minister there and JESUS CHRIST, “our great High Priest”, minsters there in the Most Holy before the FATHER...

Heaven [“third heaven” [2 Corinthians 12:2]] is a real place, as real as Mt. Horeb/Sinai on earth.

Scripture also speaks of the “Four And Twenty Elders” that surround the very “Throne” of God, and these being given a special distinction and set apart from all else from either the 'living creatures' [beasts], the 'angels' [angelic hosts] and 'redeemed' [saints, mankind of the earth], especially see Revelation 7 for clear delineations:

Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously. Isaiah 24:23

And round about the throne [were] four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold. Revelation 4:4

The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, Revelation 4:10

And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. Revelation 5:5

And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. Revelation 5:6

And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four [and] twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints. Revelation 5:8

And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; Revelation 5:11

And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four [and] twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever. Revelation 5:14

And all the angels stood round about the throne, and [about] the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, Revelation 7:11

And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? Revelation 7:13

And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, Revelation 11:16

And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred [and] forty [and] four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. Revelation 14:3

And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia. Revelation 19:4

 

[Shiny Gospel Shoes]

Scripture also speaks of the “four beasts” ['four living creatures'] that also surround the “Throne” of God, Revelation 4:6,7,8,9, 5:6,8,11,14, 6:1,3,5,6,7, 7:11, 14:3, 15:7, 19:4, and speaks of these distinctively from even the others.

"Cherub": Exodus 25:19, 37:8; 2 Samuel 22:11; 1 Kings 6:24,25,26,27; 2 Chronicles 3:11,12; Ezra 2:59; Nehemiah 7:61; Psalms 18:10; Ezra 9:3, 10:2,4,7,9, 28:14,16, 41:18.

"Cherubims": Genesis 3:24; Exodus 25:18,19,20,22, 26:1,31, 36:8,35, 37:7,8,9; Numbers 7:89; 1 Samuel 4:4; 2 Samuel 6:2; 1 Kings 6:23,25,27,28,29,32,35, 7:29,36, 8:6,7; 2 Kings 19:15; 1 Chronicles 13:6, 28:18; 2 Chronicles 3:7,10,11,13,14, 5:7,8; Psalms 80:1, 99:1; Isaiah 37:16; Ezekiel 10:1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9,15,16,18,19,20, 11:22, 41:18,20,25; Hebrews 9:5.

"Seraphims": Isaiah 6:2,6.

"Living Creatures": Ezekiel 1:5,13,14,15,19, 3:13, see also these in “Ezekiel 10:1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9,15,16,18,19,20, 11:22”; see also "four beasts": Revelation 4:6,8, 5:6,8,11,14, 6:1,6, 7:11, 14:3, 15:7, 19:4.

"Four and Twenty Elders" [not human, rulers/representatives of other unfallen worlds]: Revelation 4:4,10, 5:5,6,8,11,14, 7:11,13, 11:16, 14:3, 19:4; see also “ancients”: Isaiah 24:23

"Angels, that excel in strength": Psalms 103:20 [like Gabriel, which means the Strength of God]

"Angels": throughout scripture

various other terms like "Sons of God" [in Job 1:6, 2:1, 38:7], etc referring in that instance, to representatives of the unfallen worlds.

Also in Heavan are "thrones" [Daniel 7:9; Colossians 1:16; Revelation 20:4], "dominions" [Colossians 1:16], "principalities" [Ephesians 3:10, 6:12; Colossians 1:16], "powers" [Ephesians 3:10, 6:12; Colossians 1:16], "rulers of..." [Ephesians 6:12] and so on.

Revelation 5:3,4 speaks that “no man” [literally 'and no one', “καιG2532 CONJ ουδειςG3762 A-NSM-N” and literally 'no one was found' οτιG3754 CONJ ουδειςG3762 A-NSM-N αξιοςG514 A-NSM ευρεθηG2147 V-API-3S] in “Heaven” [neither anywhere in all creation]was able to open the Sealed Scroll/Book, except Christ Jesus, and so again we see others in Heaven:

And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. Revelation 5:3

And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. Revelation 5:4

Revelation 5:13 speaks about “every creature which is in heaven”, even “all that are in” it, again revealing there are other created beings in Heaven:

And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, [be] unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever. Revelation 5:13

Revelation 19:14 speaks of the very “armies of Heaven” [see also vs 19 “his army”] and God is called in several places “the LORD [God] of Hosts [Sabaoth]”:

And the armies [which were] in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. Revelation 19:4

And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha. Romans 9:29

Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth. James 5:4

Revelation 19:5,6 speaks about “all ye his servants” and “...the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of many thunderings, saying, Alleluia...”

Jesus even speaks of the “far country”:

Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country: Matthew 21:33

For [the kingdom of heaven is] as a man travelling into a far country, [who] called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. Matthew 25:14

And he began to speak unto them by parables. A [certain] man planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about [it], and digged [a place for] the winefat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country. Mark 12:1

He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. Luke 19:12

Then began he to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time. Luke 20:9

Paul speaks of that we ought to set our hearts on “things above”:

If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Colossians 3:1

Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. Colossians 3:2

 

[Shiny Gospel Shoes]

The "Third Heaven" [2 Corinthians 12:2] as we know it by Paul already existed who knows how many ages before the "heavens" of Genesis 1:1 and this may be shown by Scripture itself, and the Spirit of Prophecy, even the very language of Genesis 1.

The "heavens and earth" that are mentioned in Genesis 1, including that which was in them [sun, moon and stars that we see], were indeed created in 6 literal standard consecutive 24hr days about 6,000 years ago, and so this topic may be beneficial for several kinds of people who are confused about these things.
