During this period of upheaval, certain individuals resisted Satan. These warriors were known as the Elect and the Zadok. Meanwhile, other angels chose neutrality. Unmoved by the conflict between God and Satan, those angels focused on their own affairs and left others to contend with the battle.

As Satan’s influence expanded, so did his arrogance. His following grew until he commanded a third of the angels.

At this pivotal moment, God intervened. He could have either destroyed a third of His disobedient children or rebuilt everything from the ground up, giving each of His children the freedom to choose between following Him or following Satan.

Approximately 14,000 years ago, due to Satan’s evil and his influence over a third of God’s children, a catastrophic event occurred. It was a worldwide flood that left the Earth desolate. This event, often referred to by some scholars as the great Katabole, marked the time when Satan was cast down from his position of power.

It was at this time that God removed all the angels from Earth, taking them back to Heaven. He wiped out every remnant of life. This worldwide flood destroyed every tree, plant, and creature. The cities were broken down and the whole land became desolate. In His fierce anger, the Earth mourned, and the heavens turned black. The Earth was left formless and void, a testament to the devastation caused by Satan’s rebellion.

It is important to note that this event was not Noah’s flood. This was a global destruction that predated Noah by thousands of years.

Around 13,000 years ago, the first period of Earth’s history ended, and a new one began. These periods of time are known as the Earth Ages. The first Heaven and Earth Age had concluded, ushering in the second, in which we currently live. A third Heaven and Earth Age is yet to come. While the Earth itself remains the same, these Ages are distinct dispensations of time, each with its unique purpose and character.

The Second Earth Age began with Genesis 1:2 in the Bible. As it is written, “a thousand years to man is as one day to the Lord.” Based on this perspective, the first five days of the Second Earth Age, equivalent to five thousand human years, were a time of divine restoration. During this period, God rebuilt the planet, making it habitable once more. He created animals for hunting and aquatic creatures for fishing, preparing the Earth for what He would ultimately call “man.”

On the sixth day, God created all of mankind, which included all races, also known as Gentiles. Pay close attention to the word “created” as it appears in this Scripture. God created man in His own image and in the image of the angels. To enable them to multiply, He also created female, or woman.

God would then place a soul waiting in Heaven into each female embryo at the moment of conception. As the human child developed and grew, it passed through the water of the woman to be born innocent, with no memory of the First Earth Age. With a fresh start and free will, the child could choose for themselves whether to follow God or Satan.

Since a soul originally belonging to an angel is now housed in a human body, born through the water of the woman, Jesus explained this process when He said, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.” This is commonly referred to as being “born again,” or more accurately, “born from above.”

When God created all the races on the sixth day, did He instruct them to “be fruitful, multiply, and plenish the Earth”? While “plenish” is an old term that might have seemed appropriate, God did not use it. Nor did He say “populate the Earth,” though that would also have been accurate.

Instead, God specifically said, “Be fruitful, multiply, and replenish the Earth.”

The choice of the word “replenish” is significant, as it implies the Earth had been previously inhabited, then destroyed, and now required restoration.

The timeline is filled with details here. Before creating Adam, God first created animals for hunting and fish for fishing. To confirm the name “Adam,” we turn to the Hebrew manuscripts, which are written from right to left.

The following diagrams are from a more advanced study tool called The Green’s Interlinear four volume Old and New Testament. This interlinear Bible is especially useful for pastors, Biblical scholars, and serious students of Scripture who want to engage directly with the Biblical languages. It allows for a detailed examination of the text without requiring extensive knowledge of Hebrew or Greek.

In the first diagram, the Hebrew word above “man” translates to “Adam,” referring to mankind, known as all races being created on the sixth day.

During this time, there was no death, which explains why the individuals mentioned in the early parts of the Bible are described as having such long lives. Additionally, there were no acts of killing.

On the seventh day, God rested, deeply pleased with all His work.

On the eighth day, God wanted someone to cultivate the ground, so He “formed” a unique man named Eth-Ha’ Adam, or simply Adam. To understand this name more deeply, let’s examine the Hebrew manuscripts in the second diagram.

Notice how in this black box it says “THE MAN.” The Hebrew text spells out “Eth-Ha Adam,” which refers to a completely different Adam than the one mentioned on the sixth day.

To clarify, the “sixth-day man” refers to mankind as a whole, encompassing all races. In contrast, the Adam of the eighth day, often referred to as “the man,” signifies the beginning of a specific lineage, one that ultimately leads to Jesus Christ.

From the DNA (helix curve) of “Eth-Ha Adam,” God formed a unique woman named Eve. Of course, the concept and terminology of DNA and the helix curve was unknown at the time. When the original manuscripts referred to a “curve,” translators, unfamiliar with the scientific terminology, wrote it as God taking Adam’s rib. This interpretation has persisted through the ages.

God then created a special place called the Garden of Eden, designed exclusively for Adam, Eve, and their descendants. This garden was a secluded area, separate from the races created on the sixth day.

It is written that Eve is the “mother of all living.” But how could Eve be the mother of all the races created on the sixth day? This phrase is often misunderstood. It does not imply biological motherhood of all races but carries a deeper, more specific meaning.

Through Eve, passing from umbilical cord to umbilical cord, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ would come. All who believe in Jesus will have eternal life. This promise extends to everyone, including those from the diverse races created on the sixth day. Salvation through Jesus transcends race and origin.

Eve, as the first woman in the lineage of Christ, earned the title “mother of all living.” Had the world understood that God created all races on the sixth day and declared His creation “good,” racial injustice might never have taken root. Yet, ignorance of this truth has fueled inequality and prejudice throughout history.

The Biblical timeline reveals two distinct acts of creation. On the sixth day, God “created” hunters and fishers. On the eighth day, He “formed” the first farmers. Following this, God created animals for agriculture, and Adam, formed on the eighth day, named them.

If God “created” all the races on the sixth day, why did He need to “form” a couple on the eighth day? God had a special plan for the couple he formed on the eighth day. That special couple was to be the beginning of the lineage of Jesus Christ.

However, Satan sought to disrupt this divine plan. As a cunning and strategic adversary, he understood that undermining God’s work required attacks from both the heavens and the earth. His ultimate goal was to derail the lineage of Christ.

To achieve this, Satan needed followers to influence and corrupt. Through deception, they infiltrated institutions, schools, families, governments, churches, and even Biblical scholars. One of his most destructive tactics was altering the words of Scripture, leading to mistranslations and distortions in different versions of the Bible. Soon, I will go deeper into how Satan orchestrated these attacks from both the ground and the sky.
