The natural and then the spiritual
“Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but
that which is natural;
and
afterward that which is spiritual.”
1 Corinthians 15:46
the natural creation the earthy
“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 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. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.”
Genesis 1:1-4 KJV
but then this would happen spiritually to creation darkness would come but the lords light would later rise again and be seen upon the people
“For,
behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: ( this would be the problem )
(to solve that issue this would happen later )
but
the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.”
Isaiah 60:2 KJV
So you have a point where creation became once again where darkness covered the earth this time. NOt a natural darkness but a spiritual darkness by sin and mans wickedness on the earth
“For
my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are
sottish children, and they have
none understanding: they are
wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge
.
I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. I beheld, and, lo,
there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.”
Jeremiah 4:22-25 KJV
and so Into this spiritual darkness over creation again once more
God spoke the spiritual light forth by his word
“
The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.
For
unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end,
upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.”
Isaiah 9:2, 6-8
And then
his word was fulfilled
“And
the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth.”
John 1:14 KJV
and the true spiritual light of the world began to shine
“Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying,
I am the light of the world: he that
followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall
have the light of life.”
John 8:12 KJV
“
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and
the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.”
John 1:1-5 KJV
and he is dividing the darkness from the true light
“And this is the condemnation, that
light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
For every one that
doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
But he that
doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.”
John 3:19-21 KJV
To summarize when we hear and believe the gospel this is happening
“For
God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined
in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.”
2 Corinthians 4:6 KJV
which is causing this to happen
“But
we all, with
open face beholding as in a glass
the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.”
2 Corinthians 3:18 KJV
ultimately fulfilling this
“And
God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over 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.”
Genesis 1:26 KJV
In tbe new testsment it sounds like this
“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. For whom he did foreknow, he also did
predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the
firstborn among many brethren.”
Romans 8:28-29
and we know
“
Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: for by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: and he is before all things, and by him all things consist. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell; and, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.”
Colossians 1:15-20
