[Ping-Pong]

Tell you what....show me a reasonably clear indication of transition for the universe itself in Genesis, as with the word “became” for the the earth, and you’ll have my ear....

I just came across this scripture this morning and it has a great deal to do with our discussion on the 3 ages of heaven and earth.

11 Corinthians 12:2 I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.
4.How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

Paul, I suppose in some type of a vision, was taken to the 3rd. heaven age and shown what it will be like in that paradise. If there is that 3rd age it has to follow this 2nd age and that means there was an age before this one.

Just something else to consider........Ping

Thanks Png-Pong. That’s an interesting verse, and on the surface, seems compelling. I’ll check it out next time I sit down with the Bible....
