here is another study that might help explain thingsFirst Earth Age: The first earth age was the time spoken of in Genesis 1:1, II Peter 3, and Jeremiah 4:18 to the end of the chapter. Mankind did not exist in the flesh, however the animal world did. It was far more expanded then what is common in this earth age. An example of this is in the elephant world, where there are three known species existing today, living in the world. In the first earth age, there were over thirty types that have been dug up. All souls were created in the first earth age, and lived in what we call their soul bodies. The reason that we find no fossils today dating back beyond 6,000 to 10,000 years is because man did not exist in the flesh body. All souls were in existence then.It was also in the first earth age that Satan, the most beautiful of all angels allowed his pride to overcome him, and the fall, of not only Satan came, but one third of all souls that existed then also fell. This brought about the Fall of Satan, and the end of the first age. It is because of that fall, or "toho the destruction, where by all animals and living forms on earth came to an end.Second Earth Age: The second earth age started with Genesis 1:2, and God's plan of reconstruction of this earth, and all that was to live on it, began. This is the age of the flesh, whereby all souls were required to be born of woman, from the womb, [of water, within the womb] And be tried and tested, and for this God gave each soul what is called "free-will". They had the right to chose God, or Satan. However there are some that were special in this earth age, for they are the ones that took a stand against Satan's rebellion against God, and thus they were judged and set aside in that first earth age, and those people are what we call the "elect".The purpose of God sending a Son to be born of woman, was established before the start of this flesh age, for God laid his plan out in the constellations in the heavens, and that is what the signs of the ages are. Now it is important to know that the races were created separate and prior to Adamic, or "ruddy complected man", and it was through the Adamic race that God selected to send His Son, through the womb of woman, Mary. This is why it was forbidden of mixed marriages in the beginning, for Satan had polluted mankind with his sexual union with Eve, and from that union came Cain, and his offspring,and the Kenites.Heres another view
