it was without form - creation was just beginning
it was void - nothing had yet been created on earth
it was dark - the definition of the absence of light

Tim God cannot creat something that is not good or perfect. Lucifer was perfect until, man was perfect until, the earth was perfect until. the earth nor the heaven had any darkness in it's original form for it was pure with God and in himis no darkness at all.
then God came in six days and created anew.
the heaven and earth were created in the beginning perfet. then after that which took place which the BIble mentions only a little about but it has to do with Lucifer and one third the angels.
it is later that God creates the Heavens and the earth in six day.
but ask yourself one question as to the second Day of creation. why does God not call it good? I mean if it is speaking of an atmosphere that we can breath and have protection from solar radiation so we don't die. why does God not say it is good? Obveiously those things are good.
it is in that second day that God had to do something more than just make an atmosphere and a space to later put the moon, sun and stars. can you figure out what and why?
alll that man can see is what God created in six days. but there are things man cannot see that are beyond the universe and its vast space. that will be for us for all eternity. but for now it is divided from us but the very thing he created in the second day
God tells Adam to replenish the earth. that would mean it was filled previously to the six day creation.
