Has anyone here ever heard of the re-creation theory? I caught the last 10-12 minutes of a sermon by Willaim Luffman on TV and he was saying how he believed Gen 1:1 was the re-creation of the earth that started after Jesus saw Satan fall to the earth like lightning.

His idea was that Satan ruled the earth at one time then rebelled against God, started a war in heaven with a third of the angels they were cast down. It explained why the universe seems to be millions of years old and answered a a lot of questions other verses raised.

I understand just because something has scriptural support doesn't make it factual. People can take passages out of context and make it say something it doesn't. I'm not saying I buy into this theory, but would like to hear more about it if anyone is familliar with it. I can't find anything on it anywhere and it sparked an interest with me.

The following verse speaks of Satan:

EZE 28:11 The word of the LORD came to me:

EZE 28:12 "Son of man, take up a lament concerning the king of Tyre and say to him: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: "' You were the model of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.

EZE 28:13 You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz and emerald, chrysolite, onyx and jasper, sapphire, turquoise and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made of gold; on the day you were created they were prepared.

EZE 28:14 You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for so I ordained you. You were on the holy mount of God; you walked among the fiery stones.

EZE 28:15 You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you.

EZE 28:16 Through your widespread trade you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God, and I expelled you, O guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones.

EZE 28:17 Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor. So I threw you to the earth; I made a spectacle of you before kings.

EZE 28:18 By your many sins and dishonest trade you have desecrated your sanctuaries. So I made a fire come out from you, and it consumed you, and I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the sight of all who were watching.

EZE 28:19 All the nations who knew you are appalled at you; you have come to a horrible end and will be no more.'"
