Before the beginning there was no time, no energy, no space , no matter and no earth. For all was void, and there was only God. Out of the void, out of nothing, God created the entire Universe, and the beautiful, vast world that we now know and inhabit. On the FIRST day, God said ' Let there be Light', and there was light. On the SECOND day God created sky and sea, separating the waters above (ie the clouds and the rain) from the waters below. ( i.e. the oceans). On the THIRD Day God created lands and islands above the sea level, thus separating the wet sea, from the dry land (we walk on) and filling the land with trees and vegetation of all kinds. On the FOURTH day God created a schedule of TIME, by making the Sun and moon, and filling the skies with stars. On the FIFTH day, God created animals to walk the land, and fish swimming in the sea; all manner of creatures 4 legged and no legged, with and without tails, some hairy, others large and round, some very tiny like insects, and all manner of birds to fly in the sky. Creatures of all shapes, colors and sizes, that would reproduce more of their own kind, and occupy the land, the waters, and the skis. On the SIXTH day, God created HUMANS. In His own image and likeness he created the first man, and woman, and gave them dominion and charge over all of the rest of creation. God willed Humans to prosper and multiply, filling the earth, and living happily, as earth's custodians alongside all other creatures, and under the Supreme guidance, love, support and protection of The Creator God. (Special Note: And although we use the term 'HE' to describe God, we also acknowledge that God was, and still is, beyond the limitations of being mere male or female, as He created both.)
