GOD then spoke the firmament into being with Voice. Genesis 1 V 6 “God said Let there be a dome in the middle of the water. And GOD called the dome sky.”
Whoa Nellie! Where did the water come from? CREATOR has spoken LIGHT into being and saw that it was good. Then CREATOR spoke the firmament into being by VOICE and saw it was good. The the Christian Bible says Then GOD spoke the firmament into being to divide the waters. ?? What waters? There was no “waters” only The Original ONE, Light, and VOID. What were the waters and where did they come from? The waters are the waters Lucifer spewed out of his mouth as he was cast out of Heaven and cascaded through VOID to Eden. Remember none of these events that happened happened in time. They are not sequential and cannot be put in order in a line one after another. There are two types of liquid in Genesis 1:1, the water of the womb of birth and the waters spewed out of Lucifers mouth as he fell through the void. The “water” was above. The “waters” was beneath the dome.
Yes God did create the universe. The universe is not god or creator. The universe is part of creation just like the trees and all the animals. Genesis 1:8 Complete Jewish Bible says “And GOD called the come “sky”. So there was evening and there was morning a second day.
