Preface

I, being a follower of God Jehovah, am requested to do my duty as well as many others who were before me have done what they were commanded to do.

At this age of the world Jehovah wanted some writing to be done : this I have undertaken to do. It is my duty to do all I am able to do, for that is the law of God Jehovah.

I shall write a small book in which will be written simply what was, what was prophesied and what is. That which I shall explain is all as brief as I can tell it, yet giving a fair idea to the reader.

Therefore, kind reader, should you find anything written in this book that you doubt, or, should you think it is not true, you have the privilege of asking the spirits and see if they will not tell you the same. Remember this, you must be positive that it is the spirit of the God Jehovah, for there are many lying and deceitful spirits.

Chapter I. The First Six Days

FIRST DAY — CREATION OF THE GREAT LIGHT.

According to Gen. i : 1-5 —

TN the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

3 And God said, Let there be light : and there was light.

4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night: and the evening and the morning were the first day.

TN the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

This is a passage of Scripture which is difficult to understand. What was the beginning? Or, when was the beginning ? What existed when the beginning took place?

There are very many different ideas as to how this

2 JEHOVAH AND OTHER GODb

universe might have come into existence. Which should be said, did it come into existence, or, was it in existence ?

Here are some ideas of the educated people of this world's knowledge only (for there are two kinds of knowledge), as to how this universe might have come into existence. They suppose that at one time the universe was all gas, and this gas, finally taking fire, exploded. Then, from the quickness of the explosion, the universe was jerked with such force that it was put into motion.

The world having thus been put into motion, it being but a melted mass, kept changing from one condition to another, until finally it became a ball which is supposed to have been the sun. Likewise the sun, being in motion, and also being a melted mass, in time threw off pieces which flew a certain distance and they too revolved.

Piece after piece having thus flown off, they were supposed to be the planets.

This earth, supposed to be one of the pieces which flew off, finally grew cool, after which moss began to grow, then insects, until animals appeared, and finally man sprung up.

Furthermore, the ideas of other individuals are, that these planets feed on one another, just as the rabbit eats and lives on clover, corn, cabbage, and the wild cat eats the rabbit, etc. So one thing feeds upon the other, until they all have gone their rounds.

Some put forth an idea which is most readily seen in the following illustration. Think of a horse infested with lice. There are very many lice on that one horse, and these lice are at their homes. A great many horses on the earth, and these horses are at their homes. A great many earths revolving around the sun, and the earths are at their homes. Very many suns revolving around one great sun, and they all are at their homes, etc. So each sun has its earth, each earth has its horses, each horse has its lice, each louse has its vermin, etc. These are the ideas some people have about this universe.

A man who has the spiritual knowledge understands it differently. It is not necessary for me to treat any further on the ideas of worldly people, so I will again resume my discussion.

The time that expired during the first day, or, called the first period of time, I do not know. Scripture says, "the evening and the morning were the first day." Why not say, morning and evening were the first day ? Let us try to make this thought more clear. At that time there was no change of which we might grasp any knowledge. Of course there were changes that might be called days. Moses was not told to write anything about those changes, so he named it all one day.

I am certain Moses did not write all he knew, thus I dare not write all I know. Nevertheless, compared with what may be learned of the spiritual knowledge, I know but little.

After speaking the light into existence, God, dividing this light from the darkness, caused it to disappear from oar sight. The reason I say "our" sight, is, because it was made for us, although Adam was not yet created. Jehovah had already intended to make man, for there had been a rebellion in heaven, somewhere in the space where the spirits stayed at that time. There was a group of angels, the exact number of which I do not know, that had banded together and rebelled against Jehovah. One, being the leader, is called Devil, Abaddon, Apollyon, Beelzebub, Belial or Satan, and all those who followed him were also called devils. Those who rebelled, or, the so-called devils, were cast into a certain place and a mark put upon them. The reader may wonder what I mean by this mark. There are different kinds of marks. This mark was a condition, or, it may be called an influence. In talking with the spirits I often know them by their influence or condition that they bring with them.

SECOND DAY — DIVIDING OF THE WATERS.

6 1f And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters : and let it divide the waters from the waters.

7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament : and it was so.

8 And God called the firmament Heaven : and the evening and the morning were the second day.

The firmament which God created the second day and called heaven, is a different heaven from the one that was created the first day. The heaven which was made the second day, was created in the space where

Satan and his followers now stay. It had a boundary line, within which all those who had that one certain mark (influence or condition) put upon them, were put without any way of escape. These were called Devils, for they were the ones who rebelled against Jehovah.

A word to the reader: Do not condemn this book before you have read it and given it a thorough investigation. "Do not hang a man before you have given him a fair trial."

Gen. i : 7 —

7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament :

This firmament which was created the second day,

divided the waters only into two parts. That which it

divided on the second day was called "waters," and is

the same as that which was called the earth which was

created the first day. On the second day there was no

earth created, but simply a firmament which divided

the earth, also called waters, which was created the

first day. The God of Israel divided the earth into

two parts only, placing the firmanent between them;

this composed the second day's (second period of time) work. Thus we have two earths and two heavens; starting at the bottom of the ladder to climb up.

THIRD DAY — CREATION OF THIS PRESENT EARTH.

9 fl And God said, let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas; and God saw that it was good.

ii And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit-tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind : and God saw that it was good.

13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.

On the third day, God created the earth which we stand on out of one part of the waters that were divided by the firmament the second day.

12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind:

To give the reader some idea of how long those days were we will take a matured tree whose seed begins to grow and the seed again having seed, etc. Not mentioning the time that expired when the waters were gathered together for the dry larld to appear, those days were a period of time, not only twenty- four hours.

I trust that the reader will understand that some of the ancient people knew something about planets, although they had no instruments to look through. It is often said that planets were discovered only in recent years, but Moses surely deserves some credit, for he surely must have known something about planets before he could write about them.

The earth on which we live, and all the planets and the stars which the astronomers see, were created out of one part of the waters which were divided by the firmament the second day. The other part of the waters can not be seen at the present time.

Very often the followers of the God of Israel are called "fools" by the worldly people as well ls by other gods. Some readers of this book may think Moses to have been a fool, and, perchance, have the same opinion of the author.

When talking with the spirits of God Jehovah concerning the earths, the one which we stand on is called the finished earth, while the one (also called waters) which we cannot see is named the unfinished earth.

For the benefit of those who have the worldly knowledge only (there are two kinds of knowledge) I will explain in a later chapter my statement regarding the spirits of God Jehovah, as well as these two kinds of knowledge. For the present, allow me to remind you that there are many Gods, and each God has his own band of spirits.

The earth brought forth grass and herbs. How could these things grow without the sun which had not yet been created ? There was a light, called "the great light/' created the first day, which gave light to this earth at that time, and which made its round in one of those periods of time, called days.

FOURTH DAY — CREATION OF THE SUN, MOON AND STARS.

14 ft And God said, Let there be lights in the

IO JEHOVAH AND OTHER GODS

firmament of the heaven, to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years.

15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

18 And to rule over the day, and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

On the fourth day God created the sun, moon and stars. The light of this sun is the light which we now see, and it somewhat resembles the light which was created the first day. It differs slightly for this reason, it is in a heaven that differs from the first heaven ; for this heaven, light, earth, moon and stars were created for a special purpose; it was to pen in those who rebelled against the God of Israel during the time of war in heaven ; a time which Moses called "first day," also known as the first period of time. These rebellious

THE FIRST SIX DAYS II

ones were put in here with the mark upon them which binds them.

After the light had been created on the fourth day, the light that was created the first day disappeared from our sight because of the gulf which was put between us. The "great light" that was created during the first day, gave light so that all things then existing on the earth might grow. But the sun, having been created on the fourth day, gave light, while the other light disappeared because of the gulf.

If we had a telescope with a lense so strong as to enable us to read a daily paper at a distance from this earth to the moon, it would be utterly impossible to obtain the least glimpse of that "great light" which was created the first day. It is so obscure.

The sun, moon, stars and planets, as well as everything that revolves, that which the astronomers see, and that which they can not see, all these the spirits of the God of Israel call the "old heaven." All that floats in this heaven was only a part of the waters ; the other part of the waters which the firmament divided and was created the second day, the spirits of the God Jehovah call the "unfinished earth," which can not be seen because of the gulf.

So far we have the old heaven with all that floats within it, including the "small light/' We also have the unfinished earth, or called waters, which includes the great light. The sun which we now behold was created on the fourth day, while the "great" light was finished during the first day. The sun, moon and stars taken together, are called the old heaven, for there is to be a new heaven and a new earth created;

A ND I saw a new heaven and a new earth : for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away: and there was no more sea.

Whether that is finished or not, I cannot say.

The old heaven keeps within itself a part of the waters which were divided by the firmament the second day. This includes all that is visible, such as the sun, moon, stars, etc.

The light of the sun had no distinct effect upon the newly created earth, for it continued making its proper revolutions every twenty-four hours, just as it had done while under direct control of the first "great" light.

FIFTH DAY CREATION OF THE FISH OF THE SEA AND

THE FOWLS OF THE AIR.

20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind : and God saw that it was good.

22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

In the fifth period of time, God created the fish of the sea and the fowl of the air. Of all that was created during the fifth day, there is nothing that I will treat of in this book. It was simply a period such as the others.

CONCERNING SCIENTIFIC FACTS OF THE OLD HEAVEN.

At this age of the world it is often said, that philosophers have definite proof that this world has been in existence much longer than the Bible says it has been.

A large number of scientific facts have been gathered by scientists, showing that even this very earth of ours, the youngest of the planets, is at least several hundred thousand years old. Therefore, according to this report, our earth is the last planet to have come into existence. But according to the report of the God Jehovah, this cannot be true, that is, if we reckon from the time the waters were divided by the firmament.

Now let us go back just a step further and look at it from another standpoint. Before the earth (or called waters) was divided by the firmament, our earth as well as the planets, sun, moon and stars were counted as one. Thus we cannot say that our earth is the youngest of the planets. After the rebellion which took place in heaven, Jehovah divided the waters and placed a firmament between them. The one part of this division was put in working order within what is called the old heaven.

Now, if we would consider its birth as far back as the old heaven, then our earth would be the oldest. Rightly speaking, this world is no older than the other planets, but it was the first planet that was put in working order.

It is also stated, that near New Orleans four growths of Cypress trees have been discovered far below the surface of the earth ; one growth situated above another, and these successive growths having occupied a period of at least one hundred and fifty thousand years. However, the Bible gives evidence of this earth having been created about six thousand years ago.

I will try to make this clear to the reader. Let us then say, that those newly discovered growths of Cypress trees are there, and that it took them about one hundred and fifty thousand years to grow. Bear this in mind, dear reader, that the first six days were six periods of time, not twenty-four hours each. Remember, the trees were created on the third day. Now think of the time that expired in the third day only. The trees grew, and their seed in successive growths sprung up perhaps a thousand times before the third day was ended. During the third day alone, four growths of these mighty trees might have grown up, and in time been swept down and entirely covered, giving another growth the condition to appear. A little Scripture may be of some importance.

Gen. i : n —

n And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

Remember, there are two kinds of knowledge. A man who has not the knowledge to talk with God Jehovah, cannot comprehend the vast space of time that expired in the first six days. The days at that time were as long as it took the light which was created the first day to make one round.

The scientists further state, that the fish of the sea were in existence long before the fowls of the air, and

that God created them all in one day. I will admit that; but allow me to again call your attention to the fact that the fifth day was as long as any of the rest, therefore, the fish of the sea may have been in existence thousands of years before the fowls of the air were created.

20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

THE FIRST SIX DAYS ■ -J 7

When I speak of years in this connection, I mean the space of time which we call a year at the present time. When I say, "the first six days," I do not mean a length of time such as we understand it now. A day means a change. When our earth revolves once, we call that a day. When the light that was created the first day made one round, it was called one day.

There are other arguments which the worldly people put forth against the works of Jehovah ; such as figures of time that are pressed upon some slab or brick, showing that people inhabited this earth over six thousand years ago ; and various other arguments too numerous to mention.

SIXTH DAY — CREATION OF ADAM AND EVE.

24 ft And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind : and God saw that it was good.

26 H And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness : and let them have dominion.

oyer the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

29 j[ And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb Bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, / have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.

31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

During the sixth period of time, God Jehovah created Adam and Eve, also the beasts of the field, the cattle and all creeping things. Of all that was created in the sixth day, I will discuss nothing but the creation of man, which followed that of the animals and creeping things.

Think of the time that expired before Adam had been created. But after he had been created he was allowed to name all the beasts and the fowl that God had made. While thus engaged, he perceived that there were male and female of every living thing but man.

20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field ; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.

Having completed his task of naming that part of God's creation, Adam was put to sleep, and out of one of his ribs God made him a wife. All this came to pass during the sixth period of time.

WHY ADAM AND EVE WERE CREATED SUBJECT TO SIN, THEN CONDEMNED BECAUSE THEY YIELDED.

In the second chapter of Genesis, Moses tells about the creation of this first man, Adam, called our earthly father. But let us also understand that Adam was created for the sole purpose of dwelling here on this little earth among those rebellious spirits who had been cast into this heaven in which we live, and who were but a part of the vast host of spirits and angels that existed before the creation of man.

There were created male and female of every living thing that lived upon this earth, save human-kind, of whom there was only the one. Why was a help-mate not created at once for Adam just as for all other living things? Various ideas arise concerning this matter.

20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.

This passage shows that Adam named the beasts of the fields, etc., giving us to understand that great honor was bestowed upon him by being privileged to perform this great work. Not for honor alone was this done, but also to educate Adam, for he was to live on this earth among all the spirits, called Devils, that had rebelled against God Jehovah. In order that He might make himself well known to Adam after having created him, Jehovah did not immediately give him a wife, but, putting him into a deep sleep, He took one of Adam's ribs and created for him a wife. This He did so Adam might know that He was the God who made him, for Adam and his seed were to live on the earth which floats in the old heaven, where Satan dwells.
