Line 21: − == Proposed Biblical Support for the theory == − The first verse of Genesis <ref>[http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis%201:1;&version=9; Gen 1:1]</ref> {{Bible quote|<sup>1</sup>In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."|book=Genesis|chap=1|verses=1|version=KJV}} clearly shows that the heavens and the earth were constructed simultaneously. − − The second verse of Genesis <ref>[http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis%201:2%20;&version=9; Gen 1:2]</ref> {{Bible quote|<sup>1</sup> :"And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." |book=Genesis|chap=1|verses=2|version=KJV}}shows that the heavens were no longer lighting the earth and that consequently something must have changed the situation and darkened the heavens. This something was the war between God and Lucifer. The Gap. <ref>[http://www.kjvbible.org/gap_theory.html Beyond the gap theory]</ref>
