The earth was created as a sphere of water on day number one. The Apostle Peter wrote in 2 Peter 3:5, "By the word of God the heavens existed long ago and the earth was formed out of water and by water." God created creation in six literal 24 hour solar days and rested on the seventh. Some people believe that each day refers to eons of time, but the tangible measurable facts of science do not support this interpretation. For example:

The earth has a magnetic field which is losing its energy exponentially. In 1835 Carl Gouse of Germany for the first time in history measured the earth’s geo-magnetic field. In 1839 he begin to measure it regularly the rest of his life.^64/14 After his life others took up the task and we have 165 years (2004) of data in the U.S. publishing office in Washington, D.C. giving historically the actual calculations of the strength of the earth’s magnetic field in any of these 165 years.

Dr. Thomas Barns, who was head of the physics department of the University of Texas in Elpaso, took this data and put it into a computer and found that not only is the magnetic field of the earth losing its intensity and extending its lines because it is limber, more lose because it is losing energy, but Dr. Barns put this data into a computer and found that we are losing this energy exponentially.^65/171 This is extremely significant for the reason that it also tells us something about the strength of the magnetic field in earth’s past. According to these calculations, the strength of the magnetic field doubled about every 1400 years going backward in time with an exponential decay. That means that if you go back as far as ten-thousand years ago, the intensity of the earth’s magnetic field would have been so powerful that enzymes necessary for life processes and enzymes inside the functioning cell could not have held together due to the intensity of that energy.

If you go back as far as fifteen to twenty-thousand years ago the energy of the earth’s geo-magnetic field would have approximated that of a magnetic star. As a result many of the atoms of the earth could not have held together. What is the significance of this data? The significance of this data is that the earth could not be billions of years old with life dating back billions of years. The data indicates a very young earth not more than 10,000 years ago. This supports the Bible’s record and the genealogy of man’s existence on the earth not being more than 6,000 years.

The Bible tells us that "In the beginning⁶⁶ Elohim⁶⁷ created⁶⁸ the heavens⁶⁹ and the earth" (Gen 1:1). Genesis 1:2 and 2 Peter 3:5 tell us that the earth to start with was created a sphere of water. Then in Genesis 1:3 we are told that God, Elohim, said let there be light and there was light. Is this consistent with what we find in science? Can light be spoken into existence. Is this consistent with scientific research? Leading Physicists have admitted that in the beginning there was light and that that light possessed the radiant energy to be transformed into atoms and suns and stars and ultimately into life processes itself.^70/480 It all began as light. In the beginning God created the heaven, space time continuum, and the earth, a sphere of water, and then said "Let there be light⁷⁴."^{71/14, 72/24}

If God created the space time dimension and then planet earth as a sphere of water, how is that consistent with bringing forth light? An article of major importance was published in the February 1995 edition of Scientific American.^73/46 This article shares how scholars at UCLA found a very special phenomena that when pure water has a vibratory encapsulization of a space, a bubble forms and the vibratory expression, sound, causes that bubble to collapse to the point where it reaches a 100,000 degrees Fahrenheit in temperature and actually bursts forth as light. They call this Sonoluminescence.

In this experiment they recorded the entire spectrum of this light and found it to be the same as our light from the sun with powerful ultraviolet radiation. This is light that was generated just by using sound. The significance of this is that it shows that the scientific possibility of God speaking light into existence into the sphere of water, if that was His design, has been confirmed by modern science.

"And the earth was desolate⁷⁵ and empty⁷⁶, and darkness⁷⁷ was upon the face of the deep⁷⁸; and Spirit-Elohim was moving over the face of the waters." (Genesis 1:2)

On the first day of creation God created the heaven, space time continuum, and the earth in that space time continuum: a sphere of water. Water is composed of hydrogen and oxygen. It has very unique characteristics. Each water molecule has its own magnetic field. It has its orientation North and South, negative and positive. It is a molecular combination which actually in physics means that the two elements: hydrogen and oxygen could be transmuted ultimately to provide all of the elements we find in the entire spectrum here and throughout the Universe.^80/82 Hydrogen can transmute the early elements. Oxygen can be transmuted to the higher elements. There is a barrier between 6 and 7 in physics, but in the creation model it is already solved with the creation of Hydrogen, element 1, and oxygen element 8, on day number one. This means that hydrogen and oxygen had to exist to begin with in order for the other elements to be created.

Water has a unique characteristic in that it operates in a random order. Each water molecule operates independently. This means that they do not naturally line up with each other. Again, however, the creation model provides a solution to this problem. It tells us that the Holy Spirit moved over the sphere of the earth. When the Holy Spirit did this, he aligned the water molecules. If sufficient energy is applied to the entire sphere of water, the entire mass takes upon itself an electromagnetic field consistent with the strength of the total amount of fields in the sphere of water.^81/89 When the Holy Spirit applied energy to the sphere of water, a complete magnetic field would have been generated around the sphere of water.

The earth’s geomagnetic field is extremely important. It is essential for life processes. An outstanding Russian scholar and an American scholar: Robert Obeker, a Nobel candidate, have collectively provided some impeachable data to show that all biological systems function on the energy of the earth’s magnetic field.^{82/61, 56/58} The cellular information, the exchange of information on the cellular level is both chemical and electromagnetic.^84/55 One reason today we have a decay in episodes of life and functions of life is that we are losing the strength of that magnetic field.^85/39 Without this field in sufficient strength, we do not have sufficient chemical and electromagnetic communication on the cellular level.^86/103

A Junior high school student suggested to NASA to do a very important experiment. She suggested that they incrementally fertilized 64 chicken eggs. She suggested that they keep thirty-two of these in a control and send thirty-two of these into space on the shuttle.^{87/46, 88/61} She further suggested that four of these eggs be fertilized a couple of days before the shuttle is launched and that two remain on earth and two go with the shuttle.^89/248

They did this. They kept thirty-two eggs on earth and sent the other thirty-two eggs in space above the influence of the geomagnetic field and the earth’s gravity. When they brought the eggs back, all eggs that were in the control chamber on earth hatched and all the eggs on the shuttle hatched except the two eggs fertilized two days before the launch. This means that Mitosis in the division of the cell to function properly requires the earth’s magnetic field.^90/1

On Day Number one the Spirit moved upon the face of the waters which formed the magnetic field around the earth and this provided the basis for day number three. Genesis Chapter one also tells us that on the first day light was created and that there was then now an evening and a morning and a separation from light and darkness. This means that this sphere of water with now a magnetic field was rotating on its axis with a regular rotation.

 THE SECOND DAY OF CREATION 

Verse number 6 of Genesis 1 tells us, "And Elohim [God] said, Let there be a firmament⁹¹ in the midst of the waters, and let it divide between the waters and the waters." This firmament was a bubble of water above the surface and around the whole earth. The word for firmament in Hebrew is the word ['yqir; (rackiya) which is a very special word. The word means to compress, pound together and spread out into thin metal sheets.⁹¹

Researcher Dan Cook discovered that a complete metal canopy around the earth has to be taken literally as a metal canopy otherwise is would not be able to be suspended above the earth. This is because it would have to be conductive metal creating a repelling magnet effect against the magnetic field around the surface of the earth. This metal firmament around the earth would only need to be a few inches thick. This would be all that was necessary. It would also have to be pure clear metal. Metal in its pure state is transparent. Metal is ". . . any elementary substance as gold, silver, or copper, all of which are crystalline when solid and many of which are characterized by opacity, ductility, conductivity, and a peculiar luster when freshly fractured."^92/839 Therefore, this canopy of metal would have to be of a crystalline structure and transparent. The visors of the astronauts on the moon had a thin layer of pure transparent gold.⁹³ Josephus, the ancient historian of Jesus period, in his book Antiquities, Book One, Chapter One, mentions the Firmament as being Crystalline in structure.^{95, 90/47, 83/}
