Seven Days of Creation

> Each Creation Day is special. Obviously, God could have created all creation in 7 seconds or 7 nanoseconds or 0 seconds. But he preferred it to be more rambling, so that there was meaning in things, to also show their beauty and glory, as each year he molded with the creation with his ineffable hands.

The **Seven Days of Creation**, also known as **Seven Steps of Creation**, are the seven "days" that God took to create Heaven, Earth and their entire army, bringing all of existence through His Word.

## Synopsis

The Seven Days of Creation are the greatest event recorded in the Bible, where the Lord God creates all existence through His words, giving rise to Heaven, Earth, and humans and animals, with the Children of Eden being created in His image and likeness. Although they are called the Seven Days, they are not earthly days, as the sun and stars did not yet exist when the first day began, with the seven days being symbolic for each period of time in which God created something new in the universe.

The creation of the universe begins before the beginning, when there was only a formless and disorganized void, where the Spirit of God moved back and forth, until God through His words said, "let there be light" and there was light. As God formed the universe, he also created his name at creation, starting with the Y that manifests itself from the time of plank, at the beginning of the first day, ending with the H at the end of the sixth day, after the Earth and Adam and Eve were created. The name of God is linked to creation in its entirety, from its beginning to its end, Yud Heh Vah Heh, that is the name, which is said to mean "He Brings into Existence Whatever Exists".

Obviously, God did not say let there be light in common words or in any existing language. God spoke with ineffable words, with an unknown and transcendent language that no one knows but himself. After finishing creation on the sixth day, God saw everything he had made, from the smallest atom to the most gigantic galaxy, and saw that everything was very good. And on the Seventh Day, God rested.

## Days of Creation

### Before the First Day - N.A.

Absolutely nothing, there is no heaven, no earth, no life or death, no wind or ground, rock or field, there is only a void of nothing, without shape or size, the uncreated universe is formless and void, and the Spirit of God moves across the abyss.

### First Day - **±** 14,000,000,000 Ago.

God said, "let there be light" and there was light. God creates an ultra-dense and extraordinarily concentrated singularity containing all the elements of creation, an infinitesimally small and dimensionless light, a singular point of zero dimensions. Quickly, this tiny light expands at an ultra-fast speed, massively exceeding the speed of light, breaking the empty Void. A scream is heard, like a mother in labor. It was the universe being born. From the infinite manifestation of this unfathomable and boundless light, the Angels were molded, each according to their kind. God saw that it was good.

### Second Day - ± 13,600,000,000 Ago.

God separates light from darkness. The Lord creates the first stars and forms the first galaxies and nebulae, thus separating darkness from light. God called Darkness Night, and Light Day. God also creates an immeasurable and boundless number of parallel worlds, known as parallel universes, that are part of the Multiverse. And God saw that it was good.

### Third Day - ± 4,600,000,000 Ago.

God creates the Solar System and the Earth. God places the Greater Light to light the day, and a Lesser Light to rule the nights. And God saw that it was good. And there was an afternoon, the night passed, and a tomorrow, the fifth day came. And God saw that it was good.

### Fourth Day - ± 1,000,000,000 Ago.

The Earth was covered with water, so God said that there should be a separation of the waters above and the waters below, and that dry land should appear. Then, the earth shook and as told by the Creator, the oceans divided, and the Lord placed part of the waters on above of the Earth, while the other part remained on the surface. After that, dry land appeared, and a large amount of vegetation began to cover planet earth. And again, God saw that it was good.

### Fifth Day - ± 400,000,000 Ago.

God said that the first living beings appeared on the planet and then the first marine animals appeared that quickly filled the oceans with life. Among these beings, the Ichthyostega began to come out of the water. And joyfully God saw again that it was good.

### Sixth Day - **±** 300,000 Ago.

At dawn on the sixth day, the first land animals begin to appear on Earth. Everything was in perfect harmony, everything was complete, each animal existed according to its kind, existing as part of a greater whole, everything in its place. At the end of the sixth day, God created Adam, and by his side, Eve, and placed them in a Garden, a paradise to live in. And having finished his work, God saw that everything was very good.

### Seventh Day - ± 300,000 to the present day.

With Heaven and Earth finished along with all their army, happy and proud of their work, God rested and blessed the seventh day, representing that day in human days with the Sabbath, because in six days the Lord created Heaven and the Earth and on the seventh, He rested. Whenever God finished his work, he said that it was good, however, on the seventh day, God did not say that, for the seventh day was not over.

## Trivia

* The Gap Theory.
	+ Genesis 1:1–2 states, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.” The gap theory is the view that God created a fully functional earth with all animals, including the dinosaurs and other creatures we know only from the fossil record. Then, the theory goes, something happened to destroy the earth completely—most likely the fall of Satan to earth—so that the planet became without form and void. At this point, God started all over again, recreating the earth in its paradise form as further described in Genesis. The gap theory, which is distinct from theistic evolution and the day-age theory, is also called old-earth creationism, gap creationism, and the ruin-reconstruction theory.
* The Day-Age Theory
	+ In short, this is a belief that the “days” spoken of in the first chapter of Genesis are sequential periods and not literal, 24-hour days. Each day, therefore, is thought to represent a much longer, albeit undefined, period of time, such as a million or more years. This is rooted in an effort to harmonize our understanding of the Bible with what appears to be overwhelming scientific evidence of an “old” earth.
