About this ebook
When the earth was destroyed by water, did all of mankind die? The answer is no. Eight people were saved. When Jesus returns to the earth again, the Bible tells us that someone will never see death. "Verily, verily, I say unto you, if a man keep my saying, he shall never see death" (John 8:51).
Are we living in the last days? With all of t

Introduction
It is the year AD 2023. Mankind has been living on this earth for thousands of years. Much has happened since the creation of heaven and earth. When God made man, he was perfect and without fault. The earth was beautiful, and everything was at peace. Man was put in a garden with all the necessities of life. All that God made was good.
However, somewhere along the way, man made a choice that put mankind and the earth in a state of disarray. The whole world is now in chaos. Man is at a point of no return to peace and security without God’s help.
This book will begin from the beginning of God’s physical creations to the end of this time period and beyond. Much will be said about the time period of God’s creations and how man got to this point in time.
The end of time, or the last days,
is very much on many people’s minds these days. People want something good to happen. They want peace and security. They want God to intervene. It is the belief of many, me included, that the end of this world or age as it exists today is very near. A world with a righteous, new, one-world, Theocratic government headed by King Jesus Christ is right over the horizon.
This government will be a surprise to many. That’s because most religions teach heavenly life, not earthly life, for most of mankind. What most will learn is that mankind’s destiny is the same as it was when God put man in the garden of Eden. He was to keep the garden, take care of it, and live in it forever as long as he kept God’s commandments. We pray for a government that will bring peace back to the earth.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven
(Matthew 6:10). Under God’s heavenly government, with Jesus ruling, the earth will return back to a paradise, the paradise that Adam lost.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death
(John 8:51).
But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace
(Psalm 37:11).
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth
(Matthew 5:5).
More about those verses further in the writing.
In a few of the chapters, the reader will notice that some of the writing is written in rote; it repeats many verses. The reason for that is, the author wants the reader to get a good understanding of what’s being said. She wants the reader to remember some very important Bible verses. For example, she uses the word government
many times to show that God’s kingdom is not heaven but a government. There are many scriptures that are repeated as well in different chapters that connect other scriptures and chapter passages to show clarity.
• Chapter 1 •
Genesis: Beginning of All Physical Creations
The beginning of science! The truth about the age of heaven, earth, and all other creations from a biblical perspective! God’s time is different from man’s time. A day with God is one thousand years. Neither man nor animal has been on earth for millions of years, as has been written in many books. God’s Word will show that not to be true.
"But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day" (2 Peter 3:8).
God’s day in time is one thousand years. Man’s day in time is twenty-four hours. God said Adam would die on the day he ate from the tree (Genesis 2:17). Adam was still in the garden with no children when he ate the fruit. However, Adam lived nine hundred and thirty years. So which day did Adam die on, the one-thousand-year day, which is God’s time, or the twenty-four-hour day, which is man’s time?
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts" (Isaiah 55:8–9).
This chapter is mostly about God’s time. A day in God’s time is one thousand years. A day in man’s time is twenty-four hours. Most days that will be discussed in this part of the writing will be about God’s time. Each day consists of one thousand years. God created the heaven, the earth, and all other creations in six days (6,000 years).
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth
(Genesis 1:1).
On the first day, God created light. Light is part of heaven (Genesis 1:3–5).
On the second day, God created the firmament; it is called heaven (Genesis 1:6–8).
On the third day, God created the earth and the plant life (Genesis 1:9–13).
On the fourth day, God created the seasons of the year: spring, summer, fall, and winter. He also created the sun, moon, and stars (Genesis 1:14–19).
On the fifth day, God created the water creatures and the fowl of the air (Genesis 1:20–23).
On the sixth day, God created the beast of the field, man and woman (Genesis 1:25–31).
Genesis 2 Summarizes Genesis 1
In verse 4 of chapter 2, it says, These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth.
This verse notes more than one heaven. That’s because there are three heavens.
"I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven" (2 Corinthians 12:2).
In order for there to be a third heaven, there has to be a first and second heaven. The first heaven has to be where the birds fly, as well as man’s flying inventions, such as the airplane and other flying objects. The second heaven is where the stars, moon, and sun hang. And the third heaven is where God, along with His Son, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and other heavenly hosts reside. The third heaven is where the spirit realm dwells, but the Bible does not give any specifics about its creation. Since the third heaven is where God, His Son, the Holy Spirit, and the rest of the spirit realm dwell, it would be impossible for man to count the number of years the spirit realm has been in existence.
"And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep [waters]. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters" (Genesis 1:2).
Verse 2 plainly says the earth was without form and void. If the earth was without form and void at the beginning of Genesis, how can the earth be millions of years old? There was no earth before Genesis. Genesis means the beginning of all physical creations or the physical realm. Genesis is not talking about the spirit realm nor spirit creations. That will be talked about more in chapter 2.
"And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day" (Genesis 1:3–5).
God created light on the first day; one thousand years. God’s time!
Let’s talk about the second day.
"God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters…And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day" (Genesis 1:6, 8).
God created heaven on the second day; one thousand years. God’s time!
Genesis 2:5 Summarizes Genesis 1:9–12
And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear…And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas…And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth…And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind.
Genesis 1:9–12
Every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground
(Genesis 2:5).
Genesis 1:9–12 shows what happened on the third day. On the third day, God created the earth, gathered together the waters, and called them seas. Also, on that day, He created plant life. However, God had not caused it to rain. Therefore, He caused water to come up from the ground to water the earth.
But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground
(Genesis 2:6).
On the fourth day, God put lights in the firmament of heaven to divide the day from the night. They were for signs and seasons, days and years. He also gave two great lights: one to rule in the day, which is the sun, and the moon, which made lesser light, to rule in the night. He made the stars as well. They were to give light upon the earth.
On the fifth day, the water brought forth the moving watery creatures that hath life and the fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. On the sixth day, during the first half of that day, God created the beast of the field with everything after its kind. On the second half of the sixth day, God created man. Man was the last to be created. Eve was included even though she wasn’t created until after God put Adam into the garden of Eden.
And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth
(Genesis 1:25).
After animal life was created, each after its own kind, it was then that God created man.
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul
(Genesis 2:7).
Paraphrasing Genesis 2:8–9: After Adam was created, God planted a garden eastward in Eden and put him there. God caused trees to grow that were pleasant to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden, the tree of knowledge of good and evil
was created. God told man to dress and keep the garden. Man was to take care of the garden. Keep it beautiful! God also gave man a command.
And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die
(Genesis 2:16–17).
God told Adam that, on the day he ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil,
he would die. Was that a twenty-four-hour day? We will learn the answer to that question later on in the chapter.
In verse 18, God talks about a help meet (wife) for Adam.
And the Lord God said, it is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him
(Genesis 2:18).
However, before God made Adam a help meet, he brought all the animals that were formed from the ground and every fowl of the air to Adam so that he could name them.
And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof
(Genesis 2:19).
The Bible does not say how long it took Adam to name the animals, but it was before Eve was created from Adam. After Adam named all the animals, God performed surgery on Adam and brought forth Eve.
And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof
(Genesis 2:21).
The first surgery performed on man was in the garden of Eden. The Bible doesn’t say how long Adam was in the garden after Eve was made; we can only speculate.
The second part of this chapter will summarize the first part and add more to the writing.
We live in this vast universe. We live on an earth that hangs on nothing. There are the stars, moon, and the sun. Who or what caused this to happen? What miracle was performed? Has it always been in existence?
Scientists say that the earth and man have been around for millions, and some say billions of years. Are scientists correct in their writing? There is one book, the oldest book in the universe, that can answer all of man’s questions about the universe, its beginning, and approximately how long it has been around. That book is the Holy Bible. Let’s read the very first words in this book called the Bible.
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth
(Genesis 1:1).
From those words, we can conclude that there was a physical beginning, and heaven was in the beginning of God’s physical creations. According to the Bible, heaven has three parts. The first part is the space where the birds, planes, and other flying objects move about. In my opinion, gravity stops at the beginning of where space begins, which is about fifty to sixty miles up in the sky, according to my internet search. The second part of the physical heaven is where the stars, moon, and the sun hang.
Therefore, physical heaven is this vast area where everything hangs. But remember, there are two parts to the physical heaven.
The Bible does not give any specific details about the creation of a third heaven where God, His Son, the Holy Spirit, and all the other heavenly hosts dwell. Since God the Father had no beginning, it’s possible the third heaven, the spirit part where God dwells, had no beginning. We just do not know. How do we know there are three heavens? Let’s go back to the Word.
I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven
(2 Corinthians 12:2).
For one to be caught up into a third heaven, there have to be three parts to heaven. There has to be part one, part two, and part three.
According to our science books, at least when I was in school, the moon was two hundred and fifty thousand miles from Earth. Of course, that number has changed since then. It is now said to be around two hundred and thirty-nine thousand miles from Earth. It is taught that the sun is ninety-three million miles from Earth. Given those distances, the universe has to be vast. No one is yet to say how far God’s dwelling place is from Earth. That’s because no one knows.
How old is Earth? Many scientists say Earth and the universe are millions—and some say billions—of years old. Students are taught in schools that Earth is millions of years old. Is that correct? The answer is an unequivocal no! Neither the physical heaven nor the earth, as the Bible shows, are millions or billions of years old. The Bible lets us know approximately how old they are. Let’s go to the book of Genesis.
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep [waters]. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters
(Genesis 1:1–2).
Here, the Bible is saying that in the beginning, God created the heaven. Then, He created the earth, which had no form. Before heaven and earth were formed, there was this vast area. Out in this area, only darkness and water existed. Imagine that! It was almost like a black hole trying to find light. But before God could create the heaven and the earth, He had to bring forth light. Then God’s Spirit moved upon the waters. His Spirit did not move upon the earth because the earth did not exist at that time; God had not formed it. The only thing that existed at that time was darkness and water. Water and darkness covered all over this vast, dark area. There was no light. Again, picture in your mind what this was like.
"And God said, Let there be light: and there was light: And God saw the light, that
