When Did Satan Fall? The Angelic Domain - Before Genesis 1:1 or After? Gap Theory Refuted

Read the paper at http://www.douglashamp.com/the-angeli...

When Satan fell and where he was before the fall of man greatly enhances our understanding of Adam's fall as well as how things are going to be restored in the age to come. Did God create Satan and the angels before the creation of the heavens and earth? Did He create them outside of time and space as many have suggested? The simple answer is no and here is why. Before anything was, before the blackness of space, before the void, there was the King, the Almighty, the Self-Existent, the One who was, and is and is to come. He existed in and of his own domain. God wasn't "anywhere" because there was no "where". There was only God. Nevertheless, He created from nothing a space, a domain outside of Himself that was not. This expanse, dimension, He called shamaim (or heavens). He filled this domain with substance, material called eretz (earth). We can think of the heavens like a water bottle filled with water (eretz). Imagine God by Himself, of Himself, bringing forth from Himself a dimension, a void, filled with only eretz also called 'tehom' the 'depth' which had not been before. However, on that first day, the earth was only in the process of being formed. This is why God paused and explained what He meant by 'water'. He did not mean the ball of soil, dirt, land, that Adam stood on when his eyes opened and beheld God. Eretz -- earth on the first day was in fact water. Feel free to comment your questions!
