<TITLE>05. Par -</TITLE>L-17-38 Now, that was this earth come into existence, just a big old piece of cinder flew off out yonder. Down beneath it now is nothing but a turning, burning volcano, completely; the eruptions come everywhere, volcanic. And science claims that--that this world is, the crust on top of it, where we live, is just about like the peeling on an apple. And all the... Now, there's twenty-five thousand miles around, it's probably eight thousand miles that'd be approximately eight thousand miles thick. And just think, of in there, it's a burning volcanic.
And two thirds of the earth, better than two thirds of it, is in water; and one third of it is in land, about one third. And just look at this crust that we're living on; it's full of dangerous explosives, gas, gasoline, oil, everything. Is that right? And the two thirds of it, better than two thirds of it, water. What is the formula of water? Two parts of hydrogen and one part of oxygen: explosives.
There's enough electricity in every room to separate the heat from the cold, and it'll make enough electricity to burst a room. You can put enough atoms in a golf ball to blow New York off the face of the earth. And then man, setting on a pot of hell, hits hisself in the chest and defies God's Word, and says, "There's no such a place as hell." (I got that down here in a little bit; we're going to get to that. See?) You're setting on a big pot of it every day. And while you're here you're setting right on it, and hell's just beneath you.

L-17-41 And now, notice, but now when this was first found, when Jesus... Now, watch the little halo yonder. Now, I can see It move out to this earth and get over the top of it and begin to move it over here close to the sun. It's nothing but a big ball of ice. And when it begins to get melting, then great big glaciers begin to cut through up in the northlands and come down. And when it did, it cut out Kansas and Texas and all them places there, and went on into the Gulf of Mexico. And the first thing you know, the whole thing was covered with water.
Then, now we get in Genesis 1, we get to the Bible now, and out of our picture at the Bible: Genesis 1, "The world was without form, and void; and water was upon the face of the deep." Is that right? "And the Spirit of God moved upon the water." Now, He separated the water, brought up the hills and the lands and so forth, dried it off. Vegetation and everything, He made it. And He made the moon. And set its boundaries of the sea, so it could not pass.

L-18-43 He got all those things together, and made...?... made all the other things, all the animal life, the birds, the bees, the monkeys, and whatever it was, put them all here on earth. And then He asked this question now. "Let us (Who? Father and Son) make man in Our own image."
Now, if a man was made something like that little sacred Light yonder, or something like that, It could not be seen (which is a spiritual Being). He manifested or unfolded Himself a little more to make a trinity of Himself by Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. And here was God, unfolded Himself now, down into "let us make man (which was His son, an offspring from Him) man in Our own image (He was a supernatural being.), and let him have dominion over the cattles of the field, and so forth."
Now, the man led the man--led the--the cattle and everything, just like the Holy Spirit leads a real true believer today. The Voice of God out there... The voice of man, rather, would speak and say... call the cattle this way, call the sheep over to this pasture, call the fishes to this water. See, he had dominion; everything obeyed him.
