Many eons of ages later when the children of Kolob became Gods in their own solar systems, 

a young god and his mate brought his starship to a halt in an unoccupied area of space 

at the edge of the galaxy.  In due time he put out twelve planets, or worlds, for his progeny.

 

Now the eldest was called the "Bright One" or Lucifer because of his tremendous intelligence, 

and God, The Father, gave him charge of the teaching of the children.  Lucifer set schedules, 

times and places for all the spirits of his world and they studied and grew in knowledge and 

in wisdom until at last his world grew into  perfection.  And Lucifer became God to the third 

of the children who went with him.  

 

Thus the first of the worlds of the solar system was celestialized and they departed into outer 

space and came to rest outside the energy patterns of the solar system and thus a new star 

was born.

 

The second eldest of the spirits of the solar system became the eldest, and they gave him the 

name of Chiro, which means time, for he said, "My Father, let us give the children of the new 

world freedom and love, not regimentation.  Let them have time to become perfected in 

their own way."

 

The world to which he was assigned was newly formed and was hot and full of smoke and 

fumes in those days.  Only cold-blooded animals could live thereon.  He chose an upright animal 

and bestowed upon him the highest of the intelligences and this animal became the first man 

of the first race of men.  Chiro set him apart to rule over the earth, and all the plants, animals, 

and all the living things on it, and he was called the king of all the animals.

 

But Kolob had decreed a law which said, "No mortal thing shall become imperishable, because it 

would then no longer be mortal; nor shall there be a mortal thing which shall not be subject to time."

 

The race of the first man and all those after them was then limited to one hundred thousand years.  

It was further decreed that the race of man should suffer from four destructions; one by each of 

the four elements - fire, earth, air, and water.  A new race always takes over at the end of the 

fourth and final destruction.

 

Thus the first race of man flourished and ruled the world through the three destructions.  But at last, 

great clouds of dust, dirt and rocks did rain upon the entire earth and the first man was buried alive 

under tons of earth.  His rotting carcasses form the great fields of oil and the tons of vegetation and 

trees buried with him created the tons of coal, and thus they perished.

 

And other races of man-like creatures were created and destroyed until there was created the sixth, 

the great Ape Men.  They gained perfection in great numbers, for God had not given them the curse of 

speech, and thus they could not confuse their thoughts.  But in time, they too ran their course, and 

were destroyed.  It was time to create a new man.  

 

The new race was found in sea creatures living in a lake at the headwaters of four rivers; 

one flowed eastward, one flowed westward, one flowed southward, and one to the north.

  And this was the only place on the earth where this was so.

 

The Lord of the earth set to work to create men from the creatures of the ocean living there.  

He dried up the lake until it was a mud covered swamp.  He forced the creatures to leave the water 

and to protect themselves with mud and leaves from the extreme heat and dryness.  Their fins 

became arms and hands and feet and legs.  He drove them out of the cool of the swamp into 

the burning desert.  The sharp rays of the sun were like a flaming sword, preventing their return 

to the cool of the swamps of Eden. 

 

And thus was created the seventh race, the Seal People.  When man was created, God took the 

intelligences of former times and breathed them into mortal bodies and thus were born living souls -- 

the union of body and spirit.

 

The sea creatures from which the bodies of man were formed were Hermaphroditic and each was 

both male and female within themselves.  The intelligences which had been bestowed upon them 

were already evolved into active and passive entities or, in other words, male and female. 

 The male intelligences influenced their adopted bodies to become more dominant and active, 

while the female intelligences influenced their bodies to become more passive.  

And thus it came to pass that the active males subdued their female characteristics and became 

true males, while the females became true females by subduing their male characteristics.  

 

And thus were created men and women.
