The short of it.
There was an "age" before this age. God created all souls and they or we were all together. NO, we do not get to remember any of it, that is for our protection and by Gods design, so for the most part you are as old as you are today and the rest doesn't come into play till after this "flesh, also called terrestrial" body dies. I am sure you know, to be absent from the body is to be with God so it is just the flesh that we leave behind and seeing as that has no real effect for right now, put it on the shelf and get to things that matter.
So God made the heaven and the earth, we were made for His pleasure. Remember the saying there is nothing new under the sun? Well true. So there was, just like here is society. Lucifer/Satan was at the top of that society as a cherub that protected the Mercy Seat, Gods Throne. Full of wisdom, and beauty, and made the full pattern, at some point went from loving God to loving himself and the higher you are the farther you fall and he fell all the way into believing he could be God himself. He drew 1/3 of Gods children away and long story short, God destroyed that age. Now for the scriptures that back these things up. Next time, the beginning of "this age"
God tells us in Isaiah 45:17 But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
Isaiah 45:18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.
Isaiah 45:19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.
Isaiah 45:20 Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save.
Isaiah 45:21 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me;
So what do we know of what happened there?
Talking of how God created Satan, how high up in office he was (I think he was his best friend)
Ezekiel 28:11 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Ezekiel 28:12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
Ezekiel 28:13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
Ezekiel 28:14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
Ezekiel 28:15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
Ezekiel 28:16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
Ezekiel 28:17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
Ezekiel 28:18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
I keep telling everyone that "lake of fire" will go away before the New Jerusalem comes and eternity starts………ashes, smoke goes up forever, shalt thou be any more, this age gone…but people want people to scream and burn forever, I don't get it. Couple hours is all I need.
Ezekiel 28:19 All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.

Revelation 12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
Revelation 12:2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
Revelation 12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
(TOOK ME FOREVER TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE IN STRUCTURE OF AND/OR BETWEEN THE FIRST EARTH AGE REBELLION OF "SEVEN HEADS, TEN HORNS, SEVEN CROWNS AND THE ONE COMING AND EXPLAINED SOMETHING I WAS ASKING BUT CANT REMEMBER ANYMORE, I DIGRESS)
Revelation 12:4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth:
THIS IS WHY WE ALL HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS FLESH AGE SO THAT GOD CAN GET AS MANY OF HIS CHILDREN BACK AS POSSIBLE, SOME TIMES I WONDER IF WE ARE ALL GOING THROUGH THIS FOR JUST A COUPLE BECAUSE THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE MUCH CHANGE FOR THE GOOD GOING ON, AND WE DO HAVE ETERNITY TO DO STUFF SO WHATS THE REAL BIG HURRY.
and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
CAIN, FALLEN ANGELS, NEPHALIM???
Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
STILL LUCIFER SO WE KNOW 1ST AGE
Isaiah 14:13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: 2ND???
Isaiah 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
Isaiah 14:15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. MILLENNIUM
THIS IS GOD TELLING US HOW HE FELT WHEN HE CHOSE TO SHAKE THE EARTH AND RENDER IT NULL AND VOID, YOU WILL SEE WHEN YOU COMPARE WITH GEN 1;2 DARKNESS OVER FACE

Jeremiah 4:30 And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life.
Jeremiah 4:31 For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, and the anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, that bewaileth herself, that spreadeth her hands, saying, Woe is me now! for my soul is wearied because of murderers.
2Peter 3:4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
AND THE EARTH BECAME NULL AND VOID.
