Now Ezekiel 28, tells us all about the devil being created and he was created perfect, yet not one word in Genesis about the devil being created yet the devil was in the Garden of Eden.

Genesis doesn't mention the creation of Satan by name. It does however state that all things that were created were created in those 7 days. If you actually bother reading the text, you'll see that Satan was in Eden which wasn't created till day 6. But Satan was an Angel, which would put him being created either on day 1 or 2. No problem. I'd also note that it doesn't say the earth "BECAME" void and without form.

Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; ..it says after God created it, it was void and without form. IE, like a house being built, he created the foundation - the planet itself; but, he'd not done anything to it to finish the work he'd started yet. Kinda like making a bookcase. If all you do is create wood, it's void and without form so far. Once you build the actual bookcase, it is merely void. Once you populate it with books, it is no longer void. You've purposedly distorted what it says. You've done the same with these other passages you cite. They've nothing whatever to do with what you're arguing. Scripture speaks plainly of Two earths. The first is the one we're on now. The second will come when this one is destroyed in the end times. Spin or lie about that.

I have bothered to read the text and I have also bothered to not leave out or put in what is not there.

Isaiah 14:12 HOW art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

13 For thou hast said in thine heart, 'I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of GOD: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:

14 I will ascend about the heights of the clouds; I will be like the MOST HIGH.'

15. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the PIT.

16. They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, 'IS this the 'man' that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;

17 That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?'

This continues and we are told the roles this one is allowed to play and the reason why he is allowed to play these roles, but in the end he, Lucifer, and in this age called Satan, the devil, the accuser, destroyer, serpent, etc. is sentenced to death.

Lucifer did not rebel in this FLESH AGE.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. AND the earth became without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.

WHO is darkness and what is deep, hint WATER!

Now you point to Ezekiel when now the devil is called by another name king of Tyre (know anything about Tyre).

Ezekiel 28:12 "Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, 'Thus saith the Lord GOD;

'Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; ........."

BIG CLUE COMING

14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so; thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou has walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

15 Thou was perfect in thy ways from the DAY that thou was created, till iniquity was found in thee.



"Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; ..it says after God created it, it was void and without form. IE, like a house being built, he created the foundation - the planet itself; but, he'd not done anything to it to finish the work he'd started yet. Kinda like making a bookcase.

Jeremiah 4:22 For My people is foolish, they have not known ME; they are SOTTISH children and they have none understanding; they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.

23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.

Jeremiah is not talking about Noah's flood he is talking about that without form and void and darkness in Genesis 1:2
