The Earth first began when God put light on the Earth. He then made a dome for the oceans to not touch. This dome was the sky. "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty,darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day" (Genesis) He then produced plants. which then produced plentiful fruit. After, he brought back the darkness that was the Earth before God had created light. This was the concept of day and night. He then created animals of land, sea, and sky. He then created fire. Fire was sacred, used for human survival of the upcoming descendants. He blessed two descendants, humans; Adam and Eve, to be the first on Earth. God then talked to the humans, telling the to stay in his garden and eat his fruit, besides from the apple tree. The devil (God and humans enemy) tricked the humans into eating the fruit. They were then forbidden from the garden of Eden, and the kingdom of God. The entire process of creation took God seven days. Each day he would add another wonderful aspect of the world as we know it today. This is God's creation.
