Once he had created something, by the nature of creation he was separate from it. On day one, God declared "Let there be light" or "I am holy". Isaiah later records the seraphim cry, "Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts." The seraphim knew that God was three times separated. This is clarified by the four beasts in revelation: "which was, and is, and is to come." He was separate as the Father because he was before creation. He was separate in teh Son as he walked on earth. Although Jesus was God with us, he was separate because of his sinless life. And he is separate as the Spirit even though he dwells inside us. Though we may become so intimate with God as we are co-heirs with Christ, though we are the very body of Christ on earth, we will never be of divine nature. | Once he had created something, by the nature of creation he was separate from it.

Genesis 1 is mentioned now to put our study in context. Day one of creation points to our story of Christ. | |||

:3 ¶ And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. | |||
:4 And God saw the light, that [it was] good: and God divided the light from the darkness. | |||
:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. | |||
:the earth ''ha-erets'' הארץ - ''Hei'' ה means 'not understood'. It hints at the mystery of the earth. John derives doctrine from his discovery of the mystery and says that there are three in earth who testify: the Spirit א the water ר and the blood ץ. <ref>see [[SB WWG Glossary]]:earth</ref> | |||
