The Third Destruction - by Water

Birth of the Moon

Again, a remnant of man was saved. The rocks did not pile up in the mountains, but
destroyed all who lived in the valleys and flat places of the world. Once again those
of the lineage of angels drew the world back from savagery after seven generations.
This time, upon revelation from the Father they created a new speech for each of
their seven tribes, for the whole world had formerly spoken one tongue.

And in those days, there were eleven worlds before the throne of the Father, for
Lucifer and his world together with one third of the spirits, had been cast into
outer darkness to become a new-born sun. And they were: Vulcan, who lies
like a babe in his father's arms; Mercury; Venus; Earth; Abel (who was slain);
Mars; Jupiter; Saturn; Uranus; Neptune, and Pluto.

Out of the darkness of space came a huge black world of high density.  It slew Abel by
striking him head-on, shattering him into fragments.  His body today lies as shattered
asteroids of the Belt.  The huge world of destruction then struck the earth a glancing
blow, knocking loose a huge chunk of the earth's surface, flinging it into space where
it lays to this day - the daughter with her face always turned toward her mother.  But
now the earth was no longer balanced on its axis.  The land mass, which had lain as
a cooled, solid crust upon the molten interior of the earth began to break apart and
the pieces started to drift away from each other.  Thus the continents were formed.

Before this time, the land had been one mass. This land divided the ocean of the
north from the ocean of the south. Continents were flung from the equator to the
arctic in minutes and the animals were frozen alive and remain there to this day.
Some lands sank and some lands rose from the ocean floor, until the whole face
of the world could not be recognized.

And there was a huge hole in the surface of the earth, thousands of miles wide, opening down into the fires in the center of the earth. The waters of the sea poured into this hole. Steam filled all the air over the entire world so that the sun was not visible, and darkness reigned supreme. The vapor became rain and poured down upon the earth for forty days and forty nights without ceasing. And the land sinking and the huge tidal waves and upheavals caused the third destruction of the seventh race of men.
