Where have I said God was imperfect? Where have I misquoted scripture?
No, an omniscient
God created a perfect man, and “clothed” the man in a body of dust from a world that
was to be “…dissolved…”

Do you see that everything in the universe is dying? Why? Because it is created in time:
with a beginning and an end. In other words, the heavens and the earth are enclosed in time.
They are meant to “…pass away…”.

(2) Why did God curse the ground…was it not to affect Adam’s work of his hands? So the
earth was cursed “…for YOUR sake…”! Will you limit God: or add to the word?

(3) OK. Let’s use the word heavens and earth. So, nothing has changed. We can
“see” the visible elements of the heavens, because we were given physical
eyes with which to see.

(4) Almost correct: God SPOKE and created everything. However, it was
not by the power of His word; rather, it was “…by the word of His POWER.”
What you are saying is that you don’t know God’s plan: NO ONE called God imperfect or that
He created imperfection. Yet there is imperfection and sin: so, how do you explain that?

But answer MY question: Where was the heavens before they were created? God is eternal
and He fills all of eternity: where was he hiding the heavens? Did He make a void in eternity to place
the heavens (universe) and all that is therein?

So, in essence, you're stating that BEFORE God created the earth, He determined that it would, at an appointed moment in the future, be dissolved. Is that correct? If so, then you're stating that God created something which was IMPERFECT! That is what I am stating is preposterous.
