Before the beginning, there existed the Holy Trinity; Father Son and Spirit. Together, they called forth the Heavens and the Earth. Heaven was a celestial abode for the Heavenly beings, and Earth, a desolate waste. The first sons of God were the angels, magnificent beings who inhabited the Heavens.
