The “Not Good” Day Of Creation

Q. I’ve been surfing your site, and have been reading questions and answers concerning creation, gap theory, the garden. When God created the atmosphere on the 2nd day, he does not state anywhere “that it was good”.  The other 5 creation days are declared good. Would you share your views on this?

A. On the second day the Lord created the atmosphere, or air.  I believe Satan and the demonic hordes who follow him immediately took up residence there.  This is why one of the titles that Paul gave to Satan is the Ruler of the kingdom of the air. (Ephes. 2:2) That’s why God didn’t pronounce His work on Day 2 as Good.
