the heavens refers to a spiritual light
The foundations of the earth refers to a physical substance
God could easily create light from light in the blink of an eye seeing as he is light.
And also earth from a foundation.
But creating the foundation to last for as long as it has may well be a different process, that's all I'm saying, just making a suggestion.
The begining of earth being created was not the beginning of God, as God is forever.
The heavens can also relates to the stars that surround the earth.
But the heaven of God was allready there on day one no doubt which could include a load more stars, which produce steal copper lead nicol gold uranium silver, sapphires etc.
All of which could have been forged in fire for billions of years known as the foundations of the earth

This is interesting here.
In 1 Thread you claim to be a Prophet and here you, but in your own words, are quoting Enoch.
[Chapter 18]
1 I saw the treasuries of all the winds: I saw how He had furnished with them the whole creation 2 and the firm foundations of the earth. And I saw the corner-stone of the earth: I saw the four 3 winds which bear [the earth and] the firmament of the heaven. And I saw how the winds stretch out the vaults of heaven, and have their station between heaven and earth: these are the pillars 4 of the heaven. I saw the winds of heaven which turn and bring the circumference of the sun and 5 all the stars to their setting. I saw the winds on the earth carrying the clouds: I saw the paths 6 of the angels. I saw at the end of the earth the firmament of the heaven above. And I proceeded and saw a place which burns day and night, where there are seven mountains of magnificent stones, 7 three towards the east, and three towards the south. And as for those towards the east, was of coloured stone, and one of pearl, and one of jacinth, and those towards the south of red stone. 8 But the middle one reached to heaven like the throne of God, of alabaster, and the summit of the 9,10 throne was of sapphire. And I saw a flaming fire. And beyond these mountains Is a region the end of the great earth: there the heavens were completed. And I saw a deep abyss, with columns of heavenly fire, and among them I saw columns of fire fall, which were beyond measure alike towards 12 the height and towards the depth. And beyond that abyss I saw a place which had no firmament of the heaven above, and no firmly founded earth beneath it: there was no water upon it, and no 13 birds, but it was a waste and horrible place. I saw there seven stars like great burning mountains, 14 and to me, when I inquired regarding them, The angel said: 'This place is the end of heaven and earth: this has become a prison for the stars and the host of heaven. And the stars which roll over the fire are they which have transgressed the commandment of the Lord in the beginning of 16 their rising, because they did not come forth at their appointed times. And He was wroth with them, and bound them till the time when their guilt should be consummated (even) for ten thousand years.'
and the rest of the chapters describe like Treasuries of gold, silver, platinum, fine gems and materials. Plus one section included rain, snow, ice, hail, sleet, wind.
If by chance, you have never read Enoch before, how did you format these ideas?
Here is the most in-depth and documented study that I've found so far.
If it's not perfect, I'd say it's close enough.
It's a little over an hour teaching.
Age of the Earth
I prayed to God for an answer he told me his foundations of the earth was created in his heaven 🙂
Thanks for posting this as it confirms God was speaking to me.
I probably have read this at some point but really I never remembered this at the time of
posting.
I posted on the same principle I mostly always post which is trusting the ideas that come into my mind after prayer.
As I always find it's backed up by scripture 🙂

and to think, the other Thread we are communicating in is about Discernment. Imagine that 
Inclinations there called.
When your inclination have a high percentage of being backed up with scripture then you learn to trust them 😉
I had a strong inclination heaven does exist on earth and went from there.
I had more strong inclinations about preserving and went from there
I had more strong inclinations about foundations being forged in fire (light and went from there).
I had more inclinations on explaining all this over several posts in a manner that could only point in one direction.
Which was the final part which you have confirmed from Enoch 🙂

Jesus died for the sins of all the world.
What happened to all the folks that lived and died before Jesus took the place of the sacrificial offerings? Were they not covered because of the offerings?
and yes, Adam was the first man of God's chosen people.
All the other generic men/women would have been erased by the flood. The only humans left would be of Adam's lineage.

Just so that you are aware, here, several will "not buy" your claim, if the only Scripture backing it comes from Enoch.
Enoch, the Book, is not in the Bible.
Parts of Enoch are Inspire by God, but the portions I quoted and you Affirmed are deemed more "Fairy Tale."
Now, given that I know the history of Enoch, it was considered one of the Oral Books between the First Temple Solomon built and the Second destroyed in 70 AD. They are the reasons why the other parts are Canon. Personally, I like it all. But i know only a portion is Inspired.

ahh the book of Enoch that's not in the bible.
I haven't read it 🙂
Wasn't that bible supposedly in the bible once ?.
I honestly mistook Enoch for another person in the bible when you first posted it.
Who was Enoch and Elisha the two that where taken up to be with God referenced in our bible
I know who Elisha was but Enoch only rang a bell when you posted it.
I recalled something about Enoch walking with a God for a long time. But that was it.
But anyhow I found this
Samuel 2:8 (ESV)
8 He raises up the poor from the dust;
he lifts the needy from the ash heap
to make them sit with princes
and inherit a seat of honor.
For the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s,
and on them he has set the world.
So we see again something in the earth being separate to the earth world 🙂.
The pillars could be made from diamonds which are known to be forever possible created in heaven too first befor the earth was created.

hang on a minute you've posted a passage from Enoch and me think it was in the bible.
You didn't even say it was the book of Enoch and now your saying I'm using deception for believing you wow.
Well to be honest I'm through with you.
I think this really is very vindictive and leading me into a trap to make me look like a fool. Extremely dishonest of you.
Really goodbye

I do believe that God created adult creatures that could reproduce from the start. However I would reconsider the theory that He created things that coincide with the evolutionary dating methods. Many pastors vere from biblical AND true science by teaching a compromise of integrating science falsely so called. I used to follow one.
The time theories of radiometric dating, fossils age measured by stratas, etc are all falsehoods. I did a research paper at WVU on radiometric dating methods. The entire field is based upon faulty presumptions. The last time I checked, the anthropology department displayed reproduction casts of human remains that were debunked as faulty or hoaxes by secular evolutionary colleges decades prior. The text book publishers and professors still teach them as facts though.

I did warn you.
I began with : In 1 Thread you claim to be a Prophet and here you, but in your own words, are quoting Enoch.
I asked if you were quoting Enoch.
When I told you it was Enoch you said it confirmed your vision.
I then said beware if people bring up the fact it's Enoch.
But i ended with : Personally, I like it all.
So I wasn't setting you up. I was trying to learn how you were quoting Enoch. You were quoting Enoch without knowing you were, is how I assume must have happened.

Some years ago, I spent two and a half years studying this very subject, however, before I sat down to do any studying any day, I spent many hours in prayer earlier in that day.
I didn't just look at Genesis chapters 1-3, but every Scripture in the Bible on that subject or had any relevance to it.
I came to the conclusion that the universe is not young, but very old, around 14 billions years, and the earth around 4.6 billion years old.
This is my personal opinion based on the prayer and studying that I did.

ok I will let it go. But you did play a bit unfair.
Theese two passages confirm my vision
Job 38.4
Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?
Tell Me, if you have understanding,
Samuel 2:8 (ESV)
8 He raises up the poor from the dust;
he lifts the needy from the ash heap
to make them sit with princes
and inherit a seat of honor.
For the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s,
and on them he has set the world.
Both scripture clearly point to the foundations of the earth
Being a separate creation to the earth.
Samuel points toward the foundations being created in heaven.
And there's no way of knowing how old those foundations are.
Those foundation could well have been created in heaven and even and forged in fire for billions of years.
The scripture you posted about Enoch also points in the same direction.
However since that book is not in the bible which you knew befor posting it.
Enoch could not be used for validation.
However you said your quoting from Enoch at first.
You should have said the book of Enoch.
There's a person in the bible called Enoch who is described as walking with God, So who is he I can't find much on him.
This is who I thought you ment.
My guess this is possibly the same Enoch, am I correct ?
But if Enoch and Samuel and job both indicate the same thing then surely Enoch must have some credibility.

There are things in this world God has not explained to us. If he thought it was critical for us to know these things he would have told them to us. However one of the issues being discussed is not a major point for discussion. God has already made known to us clearly what the answer is. God was particular to mention that when he finished creating certain things, the day would end and there would be darkness then light again, then he would create, then there would be darkness and light again. God is explaining the setting and rising of the sun. Although the explanation is more simplistic than the reality taking place , God has explained it to us in a way that a simple man can understand.
