 to our understanding. 



2nd. Second Day of Genesis. 



God said Let there be a 

 firmament in the midst of the 

 waters and let it divide the 

 Water from the Waters. 



(NOTE : Probably the Mol- 

 ten Belt originally made a 

 circle round the Equator). 



And God made the Firma- 

 ments and divided the waters 

 which were under the Firma- 

 ment from the waters which 

 were above the Firmament. 



(The heavy atmosphere of 

 this age, and the rise and sub- 

 mersion of the earth). 



And it was so (the first of 

 the Trinity of great deluges). 

 And God called the Firma- 

 ment Heaven and the evening 

 and the morning were the sec- 

 ond day. (Here God still fur- 

 ther illustrates this law of 

 Evolution, three steps forward 

 and two steps backwards. 

 Then he now takes us in His 

 Biblical account to the even- 

 ing or eve of the first and 

 morn of the second day t but 

 throws in the explanation that 

 the first day as described in 

 the Bible extended to the 

 morning of the third day, or 

 in other words that the pro- 

 cess of Disintegration was not 

 to be complete till after the 

 dawn of the third day of Crea- 

 tion, and the third, fourth and 

 fifth days of Evolution.)

nation. This makes up the 

 Age of Light and carries us 

 to the end of the first day of 

 Evolution. The second day of 

 Evolution is the age of Fluid 

 and Crystallisation to produce 

 Matter, Earth, and Water, 

 which are to be evolved on the 

 third day. Darkness is over 

 the Earth, for the vapour of 

 steam that .surrounded the 

 world hid the sun at this age. 

 Then God created the Earth, 

 the Sun, Moon and Stars. 

 Hence we get the third stage 

 or day of creation narrated on 

 the second day, when Love, 

 the Spirit of God the Mother, 

 begins to return to the finite 

 creation, and produces the Age 

 of Flames or molten planets. 

 The planets are made by the 

 love of attraction and contrac- 

 tion, as the first attribute of 

 God the Mother returns to 

 Power, the attribute of God 

 the Father, which caused the 

 molecules of gas to lose their 

 hatred of each other which had 

 made them expand and so 

 form gases. But now the 

 atoms start coming nearer to- 

 gether 'as the love of affinity 

 makes one atom adhere to 

 another, and as this increases 

 they form the liquid or molten 

 stage of the Heavens and of 

 the Universe. And the Sun, 

 the Moon and the Stars are 

 now created. This love of the 

 attraction of molecules for each
