The Fourth Day Of
The Creation
Question: Chicken Or Egg
by
Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid
“And the evening and the morning were the fourth day. And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.” ( Genesis 1:19-20, King James Version)
Greetings In the Holy Name of Jesus Yahshuah,
My brothers and sisters, I pray to the heavens up above for the knowledgeable we seek, in the fourth day of creation wherein God created fowl that may fly above the earth. The question of flawed thinking capacity query whether the chicken came first or the egg came first. Simply, the flawed thinking does not accept the facts of creation that God created form [Genesis 1:2 “the earth was without form, and void;”]. In The Book Of The Prophet Jeremiah [4:23], in a time “Judah exhorted to repent, Jeremiah the spokesman for God during the decline and fall of the southern kingdom, Judah, stood alone for God and bore his soul as none other than he, in the midst of the apostasy of his own people.” [Holy Bible, n.d.].
Jeremiah faced the apostasy of the southern kingdom, Judah when his own people went through the darkness of a falling away, a withdrawal, a defection; also abandonment of the faith in the New Testament Apostle Paul was accused of teaching the Jews apostasy from Moses [Acts 21:21, KJV, “They have been informed that you teach all the Jews who live among the Gentiles to turn away from Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children or live according to our customs.”]. Now, on the fourth day of creation “...God created fowl that may fly above the earth.” [Gen. 1:20]. Accordingly, the fowl was formed [Gen. 1:2]. Jeremiah poured out his soul to his own people to look to a time when religion would not be national but individual and spiritual as God’s new covenant became the new religion.” [Holy Bible, n.d.]. We find we must search our souls for the truth for God created the heavens and the earth in six days and rested on the seventh day. We do not find the process of formation in the creation, for the problem was that “the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep...” [1:2]. Therefore, the creation was fully formed each day and on the fourth day of creation, not the process of formation, which includes all the specified times of form to become fully formed creatures.
In, The Book Of Psalms [33: 6; 33: 9], “By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. ... For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.” Henceforth, in The Book Of The Prophet Isaiah [40: 13-14, KJV], we find a need for clarification in the questioning of the fourth day of creation: “Who hath directed the spirit of the LORD, or being his counselor hath taught him? With whom took he counsel, and who instructed him, and taught him in the path of judgment, and taught him knowledge, and shewed to him the way of understanding?” We pray to GOD for the Word of God is received and any further thoughts are only thoughts, indeed. Christ be with you. Amen.
