Hi Someday
First the referral as above “On the incorrect six day Creation belief” I also call this incorrect as the Creation as refereed to in the Bible, and on the seventh day God rested, to my mind is the truth if you look on it from a spiritual point the way the Bible was written and intended for us to absorb the contents, and man on earth was only mentioned in the Bible where he need be, but many seem to think that most of the references in the Bible are directly related to the earth and its inhabitants, they are not!
As I have mentioned before that everything is formed out of the radiations of God, the reference to the forming in six days in the Bible is correct in the forming closest to God, I believe The Primordial Levels of Creation, the earth as we know it was formed much later, and took many millions of years, as science is allowed to reveal to us.
Much later after the forming of the earth, we were incarnated here for our development and to attain consciousness.
During our incarnations we were often given guidance to follow the path we should follow here, I believe some of this guidance was given us in parables, as I believe was the story of Adam and Eve, the reference to the tree of knowledge I also believe refers to the over cultivation of the intellect, also referred to as the serpent,(intellect) “you can eat of any tree in the Garden but not of the tree of knowledge” The eating of the tree of knowledge is a parable referring to over feeding the front brain with knowledge and in the process it shut of the rear brain, or if not completely it did enough to stunt its activity, to cage the spirit within us, it so we cannot receive guidance from the “Light” which is Gods Will that we do, so we do not become lost, as with the corn that did not bear fruit on stony ground.
Because we had shut ourselves of from God, Jesus the Son of God came to save us from the downward course to perdition, had He not came when He did we would have gone too for into the darkness to have any hope of being saved, Jesus the Son of God anchored the Light here on earth, God is Light!
"For as Adam was told that in the day he ate of the tree he would die, we know that he did not complete a thousand years. We have perceived, moreover, that the expression, 'The day of the Lord is as a thousand years,' is connected with this subject." (Justin Martyr;Dialogue with Trypho, chapter 81)”
I believe that this refers to Adam not attaining to the consciousness through tying himself to the earth through the worship of material things of the earth by the over cultivation of the intellect, which is formed of the dirt and upon death of the earthly body returns to the earth.
The reference to the Thousand years is only speculation to myself, with direct reference to Adam, if you would like my views on this I would be glad to put my points forwards.
I do know that the "A thousand years as one day" refers to the experiencing of the spirit, when the spirit leaves the cumbersome earthly body, its capable of experiencing more faster with out the earthly body than with it, and in the higher realms of Creation for some the experiencing can be a thousand years as one day on the earthly level.
I also have my thoughts on “The Holy Mountain” referred to in the text you put the link in to, but to discuss this here is too Holy, and I have no wish to enlighten or draw ridicule from our atheist that come here, as with this text I have no wish to give them entertainment, to mock and ridicule.
I reserve the right to reply to whom I wish!
There are also many reference to the time after the Judgment, this is a link to one that I was given,
In the Light of Truth - A Gripping Vision it is I believe from a catholic priest, although I do not agree with the catholic faith I do believe a lot of people are drawn to God through different religions in their seeking.
I believe that this vision was a vision given to him, of the earth after the judgment, cleansing of the filth off the earth as we know it.
Peace and Light to you
The servant
