"And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all;" (Hebrews 9:3 KJV)
"Then God said, "Let there be a space between the waters, to separate the waters of the heavens from the waters of the earth." And that is what happened. God made this space to separate the waters of the heavens. God called the space "sky." And evening passed and morning came, marking the second day." (Genesis 1:6-8 NLT)
As I have said, several times, this is the second day in which God did not say it was good. The King James Version of this Scripture has Heaven shown with a capital, "H," making reference to the holiness of what is being said, as if this was not a place where mankind could go, but where God dwells. Jesus made reference to this, telling Nicodemus, "No one has ever gone to heaven and returned. But the Son of Man has come down from heaven." (John 3:13 NLT)
Hopefully this makes sense to someone, because I just don't know any other way to explain why God would not say that day was good, except for the separation between Heaven and earth. Basically, what this means is that God knew in advance that man would sin, which is why God made the separation in the first place. As the Bible clearly say, "For you are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness, Nor shall evil dwell with you." (Psalms 5:4 KJV)
Anyhow, this is why Jesus came, to bridge that gap between us and our Heavenly Father! And it was something that was planned, even before the beginning of creation. If you don't believe me, look it up...
""And as Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, so that everyone who believes in him will have eternal life. For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only So, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him. There is no judgement against anyone who believes in him. But anyone who does not believe in him has already been judged for not believing in God's one and only Son."" (John 3:14-18 NLT)
