How many folks here actually know that Hell is a parable for the Womb? "It was a Globe with oceans on it, etc." I personally do not believe in Bible contradictions. What you do is toss out the phrase 'without form and void' and tell folks it *had* a form and it *wasn't* void. Earth was void, meaning a complete vacuum. Earth had no form.Įarth was 2D as opposed to 3D, similar to a 'Plane' in graphic design software. To me, the phrase "Without form" means just that. Once again, the difference between what you believe and what I believe comes down to how literal One takes the verses. In other words, the Sea of Glass is the Dimensional Barrier that separates our world from the 'Above World' or Heaven. It is a 'sea' (like waters in Genesis), yet is is 'glass', like a mirror. "And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God." The 'Waters' in Genesis is in reference to a 'Dimensional Plane' that separates our world from the Underworld. Physical water and/or fire as we know it is irrelevant. In the above context, The Deep is referring to the Abyss. "Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)"
'The Deep' has various meanings depending on the context. Therefore, Adam and Eve 'passed through the fire'. The Flaming Sword and Cherubim are simply another description of the Lake of Fire. It is another Old Testament prophecy of a New Testament fulfillment. The Cherubim and Flaming Sword is what is called Bible Typology. "So he drove out the man and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life." It is this 'passing through the fire' ritual that Adam and Eve both went through. "And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin." Those that are thrown into the fire, pass through it as is described numerous times. The Lake of Fire comes from the Valley of the Son of Hinnom. Correct, however One must use the entire context of the Bible to understand what was happening to Adam and Eve.
