Yes, we receive a newsletter from the Institute for Creation Research every month, if that is the same organization you are referring to.
I guess we all subscribe a little bit at least, now and then, to the "Aunt Emma theory". That could also be described as what happens if someone hears a sermon, comes to some conclusions, but doesn't do any checking regarding it in the Bible, as the Bereans were commended for doing.
Regarding your question, "Which of the days did the war in Heaven and the creation of Lucifer and the fall of Lucifer happen in your theory. Lucifer shows up as Satan in Gen chapter 3." - I've never thought of it that way, before, that either the war in Heaven or the creation of Lucifer or the fall of the latter happened during any of the days of God's six days of creation.
My impression (that's all, just an impression in my thoughts when you ask the question -- may or may not be an impression imparted by Aunt Emma) is that the creation of Lucifer and the war in heaven happened before any of the six days referred to in Genesis.
Where was he between the time, if there was such a thing as time at that time :-)=, he was cast out of heaven and there was an earth? Maybe when he was cast to earth, something happened to make it formless and void as a result of his vandalism thereon. Maybe, then, after it was made formless and void, God began the six days which we have an account of.
Speculation. But what are your thoughts?
