References used by David Koresh in the Sermon Archive: "Jonah":By David Koresh April 25th, 1989"
Are as noted by David Koresh. Primarily the book of Jonah,
But an interesting note, where are concerned with the "Foundations:Who can declare the beginning from the end?" Study on Genesis chapters 1 and 2 was heard as I re-listened again to this sermon today.
I have had some from groups attaching themselves to things "Branch Davidian" dispute as to whether or not the birds in Genesis chapter 1 actually came from the SAME waters the fish were created from. This as I point out in that study that ALL the birds, not some, not few or many but ALL the birds in Genesis chapter 2 by contrast are created from THE GROUND, from the DUST of the Earth!
Irregardless of whether they come from the ground or the waters...there are other things in that study which prove the same point, that the Creation account of Genesis chapter 1:1 to Genesis chapter 2:3 IS AN ENTIRELY separate EVENT from the Creation account of the rest of Genesis chapter 2:5 forward.
But it interesting to note David Koresh in the 1st 40 seconds of "Jonah" pt A, can be heard in archived recordings, supporting the position that the Birds of the Creation account of Genesis chapter 1, indeed were formed from the SAME waters that the fish were formed.
