Gods Creation and RestorationCycle

I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning andthe End, says the Lord, who is and who was andwho is to come, the Almighty(Revelation 1:8).

God was in the beginning. He is one God yet three

persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The Holy Trinity has one name and not three differentnames. baptizing them in the name of theFather and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit(Matthew 28:19b, emphasis added). God is one andHis name in Hebrew is YHWH Elohim (translated asLord God in the KJV of the Bible). The name of Godaccentuates the divinity of each individual in theGodhead. The three persons in the Godhead is theone and only true God in the universe. Theirrelationship with one another is one of oneness,enjoying fulfillment in Their perfect love for oneanother in Their oneness in the Father. that theymay be one as We are (John 17:11b, emphasisadded).

God the Father appointed Jesus Christ, the secondperson of the Godhead, as heir of all things throughwhom He made the worlds (Hebrews 1:2). AsCreator of the universe, all things belong to Himand not another. Indeed heaven and the highest

heaven belong to the Lord your God, also the earthwith all that is in it(Deuteronomy 10:14).

Christ the Creator of all thingsGod planned, created and determined the destinyof all things through Jesus Christ, and not another.All things were made through Him, and without Himnothing was made that was made (John 1:3). Godcreated the whole universe, visible and invisible,


2/15

and all of it belongs to God and not to another. For

by Him all things were created that are in heavenand that are on earth, visible and invisible, whetherthrones or dominion or principalities or powers. Allthings were created through Him and for Him(Colossians 1:16, emphasis added). God hascreated all things and for His pleasure theywere created.Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receiveglory and honor and power: for thou hast createdall things, and for thy pleasure they are andwere created (Revelation 4:11, KJV, emphasisadded). God has created all things through His

word.By faith we understand that the worlds wereframed by the word of God [Jesus Christ], sothat the things which are seen were not made ofthings which are visible (Hebrews 11:3, emphasisadded).

As Creator of all things God revealed Himself as theonly true God of the universe and that besides Himthere is no other god. How can there be another ifChrist is the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning(Creator and Maintainer) and the End (Redeemerand Restorer) of all things in Him. All others whohave alleged claims on creation are imposters,agents of Satan that come to kill, steal and destroy.

Firstly, God created the third heavens or highestheavens where His throne is and He adorned it withcherubim, seraphim and holy creatures that servebefore His throne where the seven Lamps of fireburn, which are the seven Spirits of God; where Hehas created a sea of glass. He also filled the third

heaven with spirits, countless angels that serve allHis various purposes. The third heaven was theSpiritual realm or heaven which God placed underthe domain of Jesus Christ His Son who is a life-giving Spirit.

God also created the second heavens or thepsychic realm. In the beginning God created thisrealm very good and it was filled with the light of


3/15

Gods presence until it was tarnished with sin. It is

the sphere where the devil and his angels werecasted down into after their rebellion. It is the realmwhere the human soul with its personality, egoisticattitudes, brain waves, emotional vibrations, willand psychic powers and abilities exists andfunction. It was on this level that the serpentdeceived Eve and tempted Adam to rebel againstthe Lord. Satan approached Eve by reasoning withher on the mind level. He tricked her intoquestioning the command of God. When her heartagreed with his deception against the wisdom of

the Lord she was flooded with darkness of sin anddeath. When she sided with the serpent against theLord her enlightened soul turned from a fountain oflove and worship to enmity against God.

The Lord also created the first heavens and theearth in the material realm with its mineral, plantand animal kingdoms. The natural creation is awitness of the Creator who lives in the Spirit. Forsince the creation of the world His invisibleattributes are clearly seen, being understood bythings that are made, even His eternal power andGodhead, so that they are without excuse (Romans1:20).

On the sixth day God created man, a spirit, soul

and body yet one living human being. yourwhole spirit, soul and body (1 Thessalonians5:23, emphasis added). Adams spirit was alive toGod and his soul was filled with the dazzling light ofGods presence and his body was immortal andincorruptible. Because he was wholly alive to Godhe could sense God with his bodily, soulish andspiritual senses.

God created Adam a living soul (1 Corinthians15:45), and thus he lived predominantly in the

psychic and physical realms. God gave him theearth as an inheritance, creation in these tworealms to subdue and to rule. Creation in thehighest realm of spirit, the third heavens, is underChrists domain because He is of a higher orderthan Adam, a life-giving Spirit (highest level ofmaturity; He is God). Adam was a living soul andChrist is a life-giving spirit.

As a living soul Adam responded to God and allcreation predominantly with his soul (intellect andemotions) and somewhat with his spirit (the verydepth of his inner-man where also the Word andthe Spirit dwell). Adams body was in subjection tohis living soul and functioned in harmony with it.His soul being in command of his body, and not hisspirit, posed no problem because there was nodarkness in him. Adam was perfect. God createdhim this way.

His spirit, though perfect, was not yet matured.

Perfection and maturity must not be confused. Godmeant for Adam to mature from a living soul into alife-giving spirit into the same mature image as theLast Adam, even Christ his Creator that he mighthave become co-heir with Christ also of the thingsin the third heavens. Adam was maturing in hisspirit as he and God were conversing in the garden.


5/15

In paradise Adam experienced the Fathers love.

Though he experienced Gods love he knew it notbecause there was nothing in paradise in contrastto compare it with. Hope and faith was also foreignto him because everything was perfect and fulfilledin God. Adam suffered no limitation or knew nolack. Adams heart was continuously enlightenedwith Divine knowledge, wisdom and insight by thedazzling light of Gods glory that inhabited his soul.Adams body was the obedient servant of hisvirtues soul. It became a problem when his soultook his body down with it into the darkness of sin

and death.

Gods time scheduleGod is purposeful in all of His endeavors. In Hisomniscience He appointed Christ heir of all thingsthrough whom He created, maintained, redeemedand restored the universe. The transgression ofAdam was no surprise to God, and His redemptionand restoration plans were not afterthoughtsbecause of sin. Gods time schedule was an integralpart of His creation, redemption and restorationplans which He set to bring forth a people for Hisown possession; a harvest of sons.

The Law was a shadow of good things to come butis not the very image of things (1 Peter 1:10-12).The Sabbath principle in the Law and the Yearof Jubilee cycle are shadows of Gods timeframes of His desires to create, redeem andrestore creation and man.

The Sabbath principle is a shadow of Gods creationplan. In six days God created the heavens and theearth. For in six days the Lord made the heavensand earth, the sea, and all that is in them, andrested the seventh day (Exodus 20:11a, emphasisadded).

Evolutionists want people to believe that thesecreation days were different time periods. However,


6/15

in the creation account as recorded in the book of

Genesis, Moses used the word day(in the originallanguage) and not another word that could possiblyindicate different time periods. The word dayemphasizes equal time periods. Scripture wereinspired by the Holy Spirit and therefore the use ofthe word day is perfect even as His inspiration isperfect. To imagine otherwise is just as absurd asto imagine that each day of our lives fluctuates inits number of hours. Creation is a reliable andfaithful witness that testifies that a day as we knowit is more or less 24 hours and does not fluctuate in

hours every day, nor does the time in the creationdays. The heavens declare the glory of God; andthe firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto dayutters speech, and night unto night revealsknowledge. There is no speech nor language wheretheir voice is not heard(Psalm 19:1-3).

If Gods creation days consisted of six 24-hour daysHe would have fashioned creation in 144 hours.God would have fulfilled His Sabbathday of rest24 hours later and thus His redemption andrestoration plans. We are still on earth, waitingfor Christs return, testifying that this cannot betrue.

So, how long was the duration of one creation dayand thus the creation period? The Scriptures do nottell us directly how long a creation day was butgives us clues how to determine it. It is the glory ofGod to conceal a matter, but the glory of kings is tosearch out a matter(Proverbs 25:2).

The Scriptures mention days that are longer than24 hours. Let us consider some of them.

1) One year days or a week of seven years: But inthe seventh year there shall be a sabbath ofsolemn rest for the land (Leviticus 25:4a,emphasis added). If God created the heavens andearth in six year-days God would have completed


7/15

His rest and His redemption and restoration

plans one year later. We are still on earth and arethe witnesses that that this view is also not true.

2) Seven year days or a week of 49 years: And you shall count seven Sabbaths of years foryourself, seven times seven years; and the timeof seven Sabbaths of years shall be to you forty-nine years (Leviticus 25:9, emphasis added). If Godcreated the heavens and earth in six seven year-days God would have completed His rest and Hiscreation, redemption and restoration plans in

49 years (six days times seven year days is 42years plus a seven year day for Gods rest, equals49 years). All people older than 50 years bearwitness that this view cannot be true.

3) One thousand year days or a week of seventhousand years: But, beloved, do not forget thisone thing, that with the Lord one day is as athousand years, and a thousand years as oneday (2 Peter 3:8, emphasis added). Peter basedthis truth probably on the fact that man died in theday that he sinned. Methuselah, the oldest manthat ever lived, died at the age of 969 years. Noman ever reached 1 000 years of age, for he died inthe day (1 000 years) that he sinned. Even if Godscreation days were 1 000-year periods His rest andredemption and restoration plan would havebeen completed thousands of years ago. We arestill walking the earth. The carnal mind does notunderstand the mysteries of God.

4) Seven thousand year days or a week of 49 000years: Theday of Gods Sabbath rest (Genesis 2:1)is 7 000 years. From Adam to Christ is 4000 years;from Christ to date is 2000 years and from thepresent to the end of Christs millennial reign is 1000 years, totaling a period of 7 000 years. Godscreation, redemption and restoration plans arebased on a Sabbatical model of equal periods of 7000 year-days; a week of 49 000 years (42 000


8/15

years of Gods creative labor time and 7 000 years

for His rest day).

This is a shadow of the Gods true Jubilee Cycle.And you shall count seven Sabbaths [7 x 7 000years] of years for yourself, seven times sevenyears; and the time of seven Sabbaths of yearsshall be to you forty-nine [49 x 1000 years] years.Then you shall cause the trumpet of the Jubilee tosound on the tenth day of the seventh month; onthe Day of Atonement you shall make the trumpetto sound throughout all the land. And you shall

consecrate the fiftieth [50 x 1 000 years] year, andproclaim liberty throughout all the land to all itsinhabitants. It shall be a Jubilee for you; and eachof you shall return to his possession, and each ofyou shall return to his family(Leviticus 25:8-10).

Jubilee was a celebration of Israel each fiftieth year,where all debt were canceled and all possessionsreturned to its original owner and all Hebrew slavesin Israel were set free. The Year of Jubilee is anextension of the sabbath principal that begins withthe day of rest every seventh day, extended in theSabbatical Year fallow every seventh year to theJubilee. The purpose of the Year of Jubilee was toensure that Hebrew slaves returned to their familyand that every Israelite family would have beenfreed to sink into depths of perpetual poverty. Evena person who squandered his substance could notforever lose his inheritance for his posterity.Though the people would occupy the land in Israel,the ownership thereof is the Lords. There is no

indication in Scripture that the Year of Jubilee wasobserved. If Israel were obedient God would haveblessed and prospered them; they would have lendtoo many nations, but would not have borrowed;they would have reigned over many nations, butthey would not have reigned over them (Leviticus25:8-10; Deuteronomy 15:4-5).

It is a type and shadow of a better Jubilee to come,

the true Jubilee that God envisaged for His peoplewhere all freedom and possessions lost throughAdam will be restored. TheYear of Jubilee cycleis also recorded as a type of the time table of Godscreation, redemption and restoration plans; a timeduration of 50 000 years using the key, Thatwith the Lord one day is as a thousand yearsand a thousand years as one day.

Christ the Maintainer of all thingsGod also appointed Christ to maintain the universethrough whom He has created all things. throughwhom also He made the worlds [Creator]; whobeing the brightness of His glory and the expressimage of His person, andupholding[Maintainer]all things by the word of His power (Hebrews1:2-3, emphasis added).


10/15

Christ the Redeemer and Reconciler of allthingsWhen Adam chose mental knowledge (fruit fromthe tree of the knowledge of good [letter that kills]and evil [lawlessness]) above the revelation of theLord he fell from his high estate as son of God(Luke 3:38) into the misery of sinful flesh. He haschosen the difficult road to grow up into aquickening spirit in Christ. in the world you shallhave tribulation (John 16:33). Adam could nolonger observe God with his spiritual, psychic and

bodily senses because he was dead to God. Thatwhich is alive to God can observe Him but thatwhich is dead to Him cannot observe Him. WhenAdam sinned we all sinned because Adamscorrupted seed in us has drawn us down with him.He took all creation under his authority down withhim. All life in creation lost its power when Adamceased to abide in Christ, his Creator.

You were born dead to God; having a sinful natureyou were shaped into unrighteousness. Becauseyou cannot feel God with your hands, or smell Himwith your nose, or hear Him with your physical ears,or see Him with your eyes of flesh, or taste Himwith your tongue does not mean He is not there.The body of flesh with its natural senses observesthings that exist in the material realm but it cannotobserve God who lives in the Spirit (heaven)because it is dead to Him because of sin. thebody is dead because of sin (Romans 8:10).When you observe things with your bodily senses

your soul (mind) interprets the impressions. Yourbody as the willing slave of your darkened soulexecutes its every command. The heart is deceitfulabove all things, and desperately wicked; who canknow it? (Jeremiah 17:9). Your body and soultogether is the makeup of your natural man.

The unredeemed spirit of man cannot sense Godbecause it is dead to Him. It is that part of you that


11/15

is constantly aware of the deep emptiness,

restlessness and discontentedness in you. Whenyou meet Christ the empty and lonely sensation inyour spirit disappears because He is the only Onethat can quicken your spirit to God by filling thevoid in your spirit with Himself. Now if anyonedoes not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His(Romans 8:9b).

You need to be born from above to understand thethings of the Spirit and observe God who lives inheaven. Jesus answered and said to him, Most

assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, hecannot see the kingdom of God (John 3:3). Yourredeemed human spirit is that part in you that isalive to God and His kingdom. A human spirit that isquickened to God by new birth is joined (as inmarriage) to Christ and has become one Spirit withHim. For your Maker is your husband, the Lord ofhosts is His name; and your Redeemer is the HolyOne of Israel; He is called the God of the wholeearth (Isaiah 54:5). In Christ the wall of separationand veil of blindness is removed. A redeemedhuman spirit is quickened to God and has excess inthe realm of Spirit where God dwells. From thatmoment forward the Holy Spirit will lead you into alltruth.

You can be born again and still live a fleshly life. Towalk in the spirit or in the flesh is not a matter ofright or wrong, but thoughts, attitudes, words andworks that have their origin in the spirit or soul.Your spirit is the deepest part within you. To walk in

the spirit is to have and maintain uprightness inyour spirit. To be effective with your spirit you needto practice how to release the force of your spirit(not your emotions) all the time in every place.When you release the force of your spirit yourelease the Spirit of Christ who is one with yourspirit.


12/15

Truth (the revelation of the Lord) is fruit from the

tree of life and abides in the realm of the Spirit. It islife and peace. The tree of knowledge of good(letter that kills) and evil (lawlessness) is in thepsychic realm, which is part of fallen creation andbeing independent from God produces death. Thecarnal mind does not understand the things of theSpirit. But the natural man does not receive thethings of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishnessto him; nor can he know them, because they arespiritually discerned(1 Corinthians 2:14). The HolySpirit is the One that brings you to the knowledge

of Truth, which is Christ.

Flesh is that which is born of blood by the will of theflesh. Flesh begets flesh. Flesh (soul and body) livesin the natural realms of the universe, which is thematerial and psychic realms.

The body exists in the material realm. With its fivesenses it observes things in the mineral, plant andanimal kingdoms. The body is that part of you thatare aware of physical things. Because of sin it isdead to God and is incapable of perceiving God orobserving the kingdom of God in the Spirit realm. Itis also incapable to observe things in the psychicrealm, which is the higher realm of the brokenuniverse. For this reason some deny the existenceof the unseen Creator and His creation in theinvisible realms of the universe. They do notunderstand that they cannot see with a body offlesh into the worlds of psychic phenomena and thethird heavens because it is dead to the higher

spheres of existence hence their naivety andresulting error!

Your soul lives in your blood and is the higher partof your fleshly nature, which is enmity against God. Your soul is that part of your being that issubjectively aware of self and is concerned aboutyour desires and wants that operatesindependently from God. Your soul is the higher


13/15

part of your carnal nature and lives in the psychic

realm. The soul is more than just your ego, will,mind and emotions but it also has psychic powersand abilities. Adams living soul, lost his psychicabilities through sin but it is still there and you canstill use it to some measure if you exercise thoselatent powers of the soul. Mystics are exercisingtheir psychic potential with limited success.

Mysticism has become a science. Millions of dollarsare spent annually on research on psychicphenomena and the development of psychic

powers resulting in the publication of researchedresults and findings in accredited Scientific Journals.For example, psychics have achieved great successusing clairvoyant ability in finding missing people.There are people that can move and bend objectswith the power of their minds. Some can healpeople and others can remove cancer cells fromthe body as in an operation, etc. Today the psychicrealm is much more than hippies experimentingwith drugs or some science fiction ideas butscientific facts and reality as a result of scientificresearch in the occult and paranormal phenomena.The psychic world is as real as the material realm.Just as the physical body makes observations in thematerial realm with its five senses likewise the soulcan observe with its senses, if they are developed,things in the psychic realm where demons,unredeemed spirits, brainwaves (thoughts, opinionsand ideas in the imagination), psychic dreams andvisions, emotional vibrations, psychic energy,auras, etc. exist.

Four thousand years into Gods rest day, 46 000(42 000 years to Adam plus 4 000 years) yearssince the beginning of creation Christ came to theearth to redeem fallen man and our brokenuniverse. He came to take away the old creation toestablish the new. The number 46 stands for theold creation. It took the Jews 46 years to buildthe temple. Then the Jews said, It has taken


14/15

forty-six years [46 000 years] to build this temple

[old creation], and will you raise it up in three [3000 years = 2 000 years of church age plus 1 000years of Christs millennial reign] days? (John 2:20).The temple of the human body has 46 genesor units of inheritance that is carried onchromosomes, controls transmission of hereditarycharacters, and consists of DNA. After 46 000years the Redeemer (Christ) came to breakdown the old creation (46 000 years), the temple(46 years) made with hands, the first Adam (46genes) to establish a new heavens and a new earth,

a temple not made with hands and a new man.

Christs redemption plan was only a provision.Though Christ completed His work on the cross, youdo not yet experience your whole person restoredalive to God. When you accept Christ as your Lordand Savior your spirit is quickened to God becauseof Christs righteousness in you. However, yourbody is still mortal, void of perfection of immortalityand incorruptibility, meaning that it is dead to Godbecause of sin (Romans 8:10). Your soul who is inthe blood of your body is enmity against God, for itis not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be(Romans 8:7).

Gods redemption plan and restoration plan is notsynonymous. His redemption plan is the provisionand His restoration plan is the fulfillment of Hispromises through faith in God and Jesus Christ. Thecompletion of Gods redemption plan started Hisrestoration plan. Salvation is your spirit made

alive to God; the first step of God restoringyou to perfection in Christ.

Christ the Restorer of all thingsIf Christs redemption and restoration plans weresynonymous He would have brought all things intofulfillment when He died and was raised from thedead; the world would have ended. However, the


15/15

Jubilee cycle is not 46 years (46 000 years) but 50

years (50 000 years).

Then the Jews said, It has taken forty-six years tobuild this temple, and will You raise it up in threedays? But He was speaking of the temple of Hisbody (John 2:20-21). Christ will have the newcreation completed in 3 days (3 000 years). Jesuswas raised on the third day but His body ofbelievers will be perfected in 3 000 years (3 days x1 000 years). After two days [2 000 year churchage] He will revive [at the last trumpet] us; on the

third day[Millennial reign of the Lord] He will raiseus up, that we may live in His sight (Hosea 6:2).And also, And He said to them, Go and tell thatfox, Behold, I cast out demons and perform curestoday and tomorrow [2 000 year church age], andthe third day[49th millennium] I shall be perfected[in the body of His believers] (Luke 13:32). Theearth is 48 000 years old (46 000 years until Christplus 2 000 year church age). We are about to enterthe 49th millennium, the third day, the day of theSpirit. In this millennium Christ will restore allthings to fullness of perfection.

After the 49th millennium the 50th millennium willcome, the Jubilee that the Lord has planned for ussince the foundation of the earth. Satan will bereleased from his prison for a short time to deceivethe nations once more. The war against Satansarmy, the reward of the just and the

judgment of the wicked will all take placeduring Jubilee when all creation will be freed

from futility.Then the Son will subject all things tothe Father and time will be no more. And so we willbe forever in the presence of the Living God.
