The Creation

About this ebook
I first started writing this book two years ago from a vision given to me by God. I am a Baptist preacher now and was a former A.M.E. (African Methodist Episcopal), Spiritualist, and Holiness preacher. I have also studied Catholicism, Seven day Adventist, Moslem, Buddhist, and Jehovah Witness religions for experience in the gospel. I consider myself to be a Christian, who believes totally in the Holy Bible by King James Version, and I believe all others are just translations from the King James. I have been baptized in the Holiness church in Jacksonville, North Carolina in the early 80s. Although I was baptized in the early 80s, I started my ministry in 1981, while attending Walker Chapel A. M. E. church in California, under the leadership of Rev. Carlyle.
I was in the United States Marine Corps, in which, I traveled the world twice and enjoying every moment of it. I always went to church; because that is the way I was raised. I was taught at an early age how to pray to Jesus Christ for whatever I needed. My father was a Spiritualist pastor for as long as I knew of him, and that is where my Spiritualist background derived. I learned the spiritual aspect of the Lord and how to live according to the spirits that exist all around us, but cannot always be seen. While my tenor in the Marines, I had became an alcoholic and was headed down a path in life that brought me to a halt, and caused me to make the best decision in my life.
I was celebrating my twenty-second birthday when I got intoxicated by drinking a gallon of Brandy when stationed in Okinawa, Japan. I was at the pool celebrating, when I fell in the water and not knowing how to swim, I began to sink. If it had not been for the other guys (Leroy Young, Henry Gates, Calvin Holder, and King) there with me I would not have been here now. I want to thank those guys again for saving my life, by pulling me out the pool and caring me to my barracks and putting me to bed. I didnt know when they pulled me out the pool, or put me to bed, but Im glad that they did. I had to report to the mess hall at fi ve oclock that morning, and it was already three oclock and I had a hang over already. I remember praying to God with a promise, that if he would deliver me from drinking, I would serve him for the rest of my life.
Well! I must have dropped off to sleep, but when I woke up my hang over was gone, and I havent taken a drink of liquor since and I didnt have to go to AA either. I dont advice this for anyone else unless they believe that Jesus Christ will deliver them from that habit without aide. I was falsely accused in the Marine Corps by some staff ncos who didnt want me to make them look bad, by their lack of leadership, so they lied about me saying things I didnt say and caused me to not receive my promotion, and stop my advancement in the Marines. I was injured in the Marines and got out in 1990. God put this title of the book in my mind to write for others so that there belief may gain strength through the truth in the gospel. Believe it or not, it has been a long time working on this book, which started about fi ve years ago. I believe this book will be a blessing to whomever read it, and will give a better understanding of who actually created this world and all who live in it.
May God Bless the reader

Preface
I am writing this book to instill a strong message to the readers concerning how the world was created, not only by my understanding, but by the Bible and other sources that I used to bring about my thoughts. This is the way that it was always told to me from elementary school and up, how the world was formed. I like to try and give you a more definite view of this version on what I had learned from school. The things that I was taught in school is different from what I know now, some forty-two years later I have came to this conclusion of who brought this world to exist in the first place. What were taught in school are not always the facts of what actually happened in the creation. The creation is the beginning of all things; which is, evaluated through the Christian aspect. I believe that it was God and no one else involved in the creation of the world. If it was the gods or goddesses of the spirit world that is responsible for the creation, and then who gave them life to create and to exist? If the goddesses and gods created human beings, then who created the stars, clouds, moon and trees in the world, and who placed them in orbit to just move in the atmosphere. Where does the rain and heat come from? Why is there cold and hot weather to make this world a great place to live? Many questions are revolving around the world in this matter to many people who haven’t read the Bible and believe in it for the true facts of how this world was created. Maybe by reading this book the reader will come to a conclusion on how this world really came to existence and who created it so that they won’t be mislead by others, and see the actual facts.

The creation
Introduction
There are two parts of the creation in which we will discuss in this book. The first is the creation of the world the universe as we call it, and the second is the creation of man, or who we are. There are two given points that will be discussed in our learning; which is, the way man see the creation (scientist, and Astrologers), and the way it was written in the Holy Bible according to the King James version.
So let us begin with the spiritual portion or the way the scriptures (Holy Bible) records it, and see what it is actually saying about the creation. The Old testament tells the beginning in the Hebrew language, and we will also discuss the Hebrew definitions, and also the English definitions of important words that will bring us to a clear understanding to what is written. Some words in the Hebrew may differ from the English version which causes the words to mean something different in understanding. I will also give the Hebrew pronunciation so that you will know the difference. I am not trying to change your understanding, but just giving a different perspective of it. I will also give my understanding of the scriptures as I go along in the book. I will bring scripture views, and also personal views and quotes. I am making you think twice about how you view the way scientist and theologians have been teaching us about how this and other worlds came to exist, and how we as human beings came to exist in the earth. The question you will have to answer is this: Is there another world of planets with life existence with UFO’s or other beings in it other than us? If so, why haven’t we seen them yet, or is there really a place called area fifty-one (51) with space ships and other creatures in existence are kept hostage by our government? Is it really true that we have gone into outer space? Points of this nature will be discussed on these areas and you can decide for yourself if it is actually true or is it just a myth? Many thoughts about space have been drawn up on television to lead us to believe that there are extraterrestrials in the world, and that we can live in outer space at a space station. Can we really build a place in space that we can live, or is it just something the television is trying to make us think we can do?
