"Fourth day" Genesis Chapter 1

"Fourth day"
Genesis Chapter 1
 
Having considered such problems, if the creation of Gn 1 is understood as the creation of the physical world, it is illogical and makes absolutely no sense. Only when it is viewed as the spiritual creation of God’s world, can it be taken logically.

♣ Fourth day (vv. 14-19)

God creates a greater light and a lesser light in the expanse, and lets them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years. God lets the greater light (the sun) govern the day, and the lesser light (the moon) govern the night. He also creates stars and sets them in the expanse to govern the day and the night, and separates light from darkness.

Let us examine some 'problems on the fourth day' we are facing in Genesis 1.

God creates the sky on the second day and the earth on the third day. In Revelation 21, it says the new heaven and earth created, was made known after the first heaven and earth disappeared. In light of this content in Rv 21, let us examine what the sky (the surface of the deep) and the waters are on the first day.

The light appears on the first day, but there is no sun, moon, or stars in the expanse created on the second day. The grass, vegetation, and the trees created on the third day, can only exist through the light of the first day. Since the evening and morning repeat three times, bringing the third day, God calls each of them the first, second, and the third days.
   
If these are referring to the light, day, and night of the natural world, what are the sun (the greater light), moon (the lesser light), and stars on the fourth day? How come the seasons, days, and years start to be marked from the fourth day? Does this mean that there are two Suns in the sky? On top of these questions, why is the sky located in the middle of the waters?

Now, let us understand the creation on the fourth day.

God finds one pastor (light) when the heaven and earth (the first heaven and earth) of one generation becomes chaotic and dark (first day). God establishes his tabernacle, the sky (the expanse) through that pastor (second day). By having God’s tabernacle established, people of the world (the water below or the sea) are distinguished from the dry ground (God’s people), which are revealed to the world. Through these people of God, God lets good vegetation grow from the land (fourth day). This good vegetation also represents God’s saints. This is the creation that occurred both in the times of Adam and Noah.

On the fourth day, God structures the throne of the kingdom of heaven—the sun, moon, and stars—through the saints who are previously gathered. From this time, the seasons, days, and years of God’s kingdom can be marked and counted. However, the beginning of the creation starts from the first day. This kingdom of God comes to govern the heaven and earth, day and night.

Genesis Chapter 1 "Second day"
Source : Shincheonji cafe

The creation recorded in Genesis chapter 1 is regarding the creation of the old and new (creation and recreation), referring to recreation when the previous creation becomes corrupt and goes wrong. This is not a record of the literal creation of the world; it is merely taking all that’s recorded figuratively to explain spiritual creation
in parables.

♣ Second day (vv. 6-8)
  
After God chooses the light (the pastor] from the dark waters, God creates an expanse (i.e. the sky or heaven) between the waters on the second day. He also separates the water under the expanse from the water above it.

This is not the literal water in the world. How can the sky exist in the midst of the waters? The waters symbolize the world, and the expanse symbolizes the tabernacle, which God creates in the middle of the world. A ship in the midst of the sea, such as Noah’s ark, can also represent God’s tabernacle.

 The water above and the water below, refer to the revealed word granted from heaven, and the worldly words respectively. To say this again, after God finds and appoints the pastor of light from the previous destroyed world, God builds an ark or a tabernacle, and referred to it as the expanse in the world. After God’s tabernacle is established, his word from above can be clearly distinguished from the words of the world below.
