GENESIS

(Chapters I, II, and III)

I.

1. In the beginning (4.32 billion years ago) the universe was created in God’s great Included was our Sun, and our planet Earth.

2. And during one of the many cataclysms that occurred during the earth’s history (this one being 11,500 years ago), the earth’s lands were all inundated with raging waters, and ravaged by horrendous winds; and the oceans were all dark with muddiness. And the ill wind thundered over the troubled waters also.

3. And as the storms abated, sunlight came back to the face of the earth, as God intended.

4. And, while the cataclysm was abating, once more darkness and sunlight were reestablished and distinguishable, and it was good.

5. And sunlight was again daytime, and darkness again nighttime, in accordance with God’s design; and evening and morning made one day.

6. Again, God’s original design was that there be a sky between the clouds and oceans;

7. And in accordance with God’s design, the heavens were reestablished, in that the sky again stood between the clouds and the oceans, as the onslaught of the great cataclysm abated.

8. And God’s heavens were indeed reestablished; and that evening and morning were the beginning of the second day.

9. And God’s design was that the lands would not be entirely covered by the oceans as they were immediately following a cataclysm, so the disrupted oceans, now settling, drained off the higher lands.

10. And, in accordance with God’s design, the dry land was earth, and the waters oceans, and once again it was reestablished and good, as God intended.

11. And since God’s design was that the earth should bring forth grass and herbs, yielding their seed, and the fruit yielding fruit containing its seed; and the earth was again reestablished.

12. Therefore the earth, being reestablished, brought forth grass and herbs, yielding their seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit containing its seed; and it was good, as God intended.
