Genesis 1: 2 ..... And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
II Peter 3: 5 - 7 For this they willingly are igorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water. Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: But the heavens and the earth which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgement and perdition of ungodly men.
In order for GOD to begin the second world age, He had to end that first age. He shook the earth and then covered it with water, to give it a good cleansing. This was NOT Noah's flood, because everything on the earth, perished! Everything.
After GOD "washed" away those evil rudiments, He began to prepare this old earth for a new age--the "flesh" age. By allowing His children to be born as innocent babes, through their mother's womb, they would have no remembrance of that great rebellion in the world that then was.
This way, GOD's children would be able to decide on their own, whether they would love our Father, or follow that "son of perdition" , Satan. Satan has already been sentenced to perish at the end of this world age, and only those who overcome his deceptions, will be allowed to enter into the final and "glorious" world age of eternity!
How did God destroy that first world age?
I Corinthians 2: 7 But we speak the wisdom of GOD in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which GOD ordained before the world unto our glory:
** HE DID IT NATURALLY **
Our Father is "SUPER NATURAL" , and it is possible He used "natural" methods such as meteorites, earthquakes, and volcanoes when He shook the earth.
Our Father is more powerful than the mighty Behemoth!
Job 40: 15 -19 Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron. He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make His sword to approach unto him.
What was our earth like in the beginning? We know the mighty dinosaur roamed its surface. GOD even compared His own power to that of the behemoth. Some scientists think our earth was at one time, one big land mass. The North Tundra of Alaska at this time is a huge frozen land where buttercups can no longer grow. Our earth must have been a much milder climate during that age when the dinosaurs existed.
Our magnetic north pole is 90 miles off from true north. Could that violent "shaking" of the earth from its axis have caused our planet to now be filled with extreme weather and climate conditions?
Jeremiah 4: 23-26 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by His fierce anger.
However GOD ended that age, He did it in a natural way. Whether by volcano, earthquake, hail, or floods, or all of the above, the reason He had to destroy it, was so that He might save His precious children because of that wicked one, Satan. Those "cities" which were broken down, are where the sons of GOD, or angels, inhabited. It was that great rebellion, which brought about that "overthrow" of the first world age, when Satan deceived GOD's children. Our Father will have Satan cast to this earth, where Satan will once again try to deceive Our Father's children, those names were not written in that book of life before the "foundation of this world age", or "katabole" in the Greek, meaning to "cast down or the overthrow" of that first world age.
Revelation 17: 8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation* of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
