CREATION
VS.
REVERSE CREATION
 7 Days of Creation
 Day 1 – God created light and separated the light from the darkness, calling light “day” and
darkness “night”.
 Day 2 – God created and expanse to separate the water and called it “sky”
 Day 3 – God created the dry ground and gathered the waters, calling the dry ground “land”,
and the gathered waters “seas”. On day 3, God also created vegetation (Plants and Trees).
 Day 4 – God Created the Sun, moon, and the stars to give light to the earth and to govern
and separate the day and the night. These would also serve as the signs to mark seasons,
days, and years.
 Day 5 – God Created every living creature of the seas and every winged bird, blessing them to
multiply and fill the waters and the sky with life.
 Day 6 – God created the animals to feel the earth. On day 6, God also Created man and
woman (Adam and Eve) in his own image to commune with him. He blessed them and gave
them every creature and the whole earth to rule over, care for, and cultivate.
 Day 7 – God had finished his work of creation and so he rested on the seventh day, blessing it
and making it holy.
Reverse creation
by: Bernard Backman
Inthe end, we destroyed the
heaven that was called earth.
The earth had been beautiful
until our spirit move over it and
destroyed all things.
 And we said….
let there be darkness… and there was darkness.
And we liked the darkness; so we called the
darkness, security. And we divided ourselves into
races and religions and classes of society. And there
was no morning and no evening on the seventh day
before the end.
And we said…
let there be a strong government
to control us in our darkness. Let
there be armies to control our bodies
so that we may learn to kill one
another neatly and efficiently in our
darkness. And there was no evening
 And we said…
let there be rockets and bombs to kill faster and easier; let be
there gas chambers and furnaces to be more through. And there was
no evening and no morning on the fifth day before the end.
And we said…
let there be drugs and other forms of
escape, for there is this constant annoyance
–reality- which is disturbing our comfort. And
there was no evening and no morning on the
fourth day before the end.
And we said….
let there be divisions among
the nations, so that we may know
who is our common enemy. And
there was no evening and no
morning in the third day before the
end.
And finally we said…
let us create God in our image. Let some our
God compete with us. Let us say that God thinks as
we think, hates as we hate, and kills as we kill. And
the was no morning and no evening on the second
day before the end.
Onthe last day, the was a
great noise on the face of the
earth. Fire consumed the
beautiful globe, and there
was silence.
The blackened earth now
rested to worship the one true
God; and God saw all that we
had done, and in the silence
