    Shepherds

    -

    While keeping watch one quiet night,

    with friends and flock nearby,

    an angel of the Lord came near

    and brightly lit the sky.

    -

    The look upon that holy face

    no words can well convey.

    We threw ourselves upon the ground

    to cower, and to pray.

    -

    But, then, the angel told us all

    to put aside our fear

    and brought to us the greatest news

    we all would ever hear

    -

    for, in the town of Bethlehem,

    before the coming morn,

    a Savior, who is Christ the Lord,

    will straightaway be born.

    -

    To Bethlehem, the angel said,

    we all should go this night,

    and in a manger, find the child,

    in swaddling clothes, just right.

    -

    Then all around us, all at once,

    more angels just appeared

    with such goodwill to all mankind

    that we all stood and cheered.

    -

    When all the angels went their way,

    we all resolved to seek

    the child that was foretold to us,

    and in a place so meek.

    -

    In Bethlehem, we found the place

    beneath a shining star,

    the parents and their newborn babe,

    and wise men from afar.

    -

    We're telling you of all we've seen

    and heard, so you will know

    a Savior has been born to us,

    and that God loves us so.

    The Pit, from eternity's standpoint, is Satan's prison. It is the place of the dead. It is the entry place into eternal suffering apart from God, for those who so desired to be apart from Him.

    I don't care who David was, but he was a scum bag for putting Uriah out to a certain death, so he could have Uriah's wife. If I was Uriah's kin, I would have killed David.

    In Matthew 2:19 King Herod dies. But in Acts 12:23 it states that King Herod died. Is this the same King Herod or two different King Herods?

  • Devin - In Reply on Judges 11 - 4 years ago
    Please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm just trying to understand Leviticus 5:4-6. Considering all the "fulfill your vow" verses, would Leviticus 5:4-6 mean that by giving a trespass offering, the vow is fulfilled through the offering?

    The curse went to Canaan because Noah had already blessed Ham. Noah could not rescind the blessing of Ham.

  • Darren Croft - In Reply on Numbers 8 - 4 years ago
    The genealogy from Genesis 5:1 to Genesis 6:9 is Noah's. Since he descends from Seth, only Seth is mentioned. He doesn't mention either Cain or Abel directly. He only notes that Adam "had sons and daughters" to let us know that Adam and Eve had more than just the three sons mentioned by name in Adam's records. In every generation there is likely to have been multiple siblings, but only the one that directly leads to Noah is mentioned each time.
  • Ron - In Reply on Numbers 8 - 4 years ago
    Dawn

    Cain and Able were the sons of Adam, Genesis 4:1-2 Cain killed his brother, Genesis 4:8. Cain was banished from the face of the earth (Eden) and the presence of the LORD Genesis7 9:16. Abel was to be the righteous line to the Messiah Jesus Christ.

    Genesis 4:25 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.

    God gave us the genealogy of Cain but it has no consequence on the line to Jesus. The genealogy in the Bible from Adam does not include Cain and Able, it also does not list the firstborn as some say, it covers the righteous line to Jesus. There are many teachings out there that we must be careful. We must test the spirits for there are many contrary to the word of God. Like the verse, you listed John 8:44 Here is another.

    1John.3:12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.

    These verses by themselves may hint at what you said of Satan and Eve but, this does not mean they are from the physical seed of Satan (devil). Cain was not of the seed of the devil, it is saying if you choose evil, not righteousness you are of the devil. We are either sons and daughters of God or Satan (devil). You can paint a very deceptive picture with one or two verses.

    1John.3:10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

    Test the spirits, if we cannot find scripture to back up what we hear or read RUN!!!

    2 Corinthians 11:14-1514 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

    God bless you, Ron

    Your reply is helpful, however, I still question why Cain is not in Adam's lineage, and vise versa.

    Reply to Ron:

    It's all over the Bible, in different places: search the words: 'upside down'. However it has NOTHING to do with "Old Earth Theory" about creation. That's a cult.

    People get confused with carbon dating. (my opinion)

    The Bible which is a record of ONE person: Jesus; the Word of God. Genesis to Revelation leads up to the end of this age. 2 Peter: earth will burn up.

    What scientists have long sought to explain=

    Time, Force, Action, Matter, can all be explained in Genesis 1:1. How did it happen and WHO did it? The Godhead: the Father, the Word of God, the Spirit.

    The First thing God created, was TIME. "In Beginning". John 1:2-5, Hebrews 1:1-16. Time began to tick for Creation and Man.

    God Wills it

    The Son ( Hebrews 1:5), The Word, speaks it

    The Spirit performs it

    Mishael: this is enough to get you on track with what happened in Genesis the first day. Get a study Bible that has Center Column references to further explanation (has tiny abc's imbedded in the scriptures). You don't need secular books to read this and understand better.

    We need to understand that Satan and the 1/3 of his followers were thrown down to earth. There was war in heaven. That's what happened to Cain. His hateful heart opened a door. "They are, who found the daughters of Adam and Eve, desirable."

    Until Jesus returns to earth, demonic activity will increase.

    "Garnish your house" (you) with the Bible, Prayer and don't open doors to ungodly influences. The "falling away" is speeding up. Know what the "apostasy" is.

    Keep your "oil of the joy of the Holy Spirit", topped off. (Ten virgins parable)

    Cain is not in Geneology because of the curse.

    John 8:44

    Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he (Satan) speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

  • S Spencer - In Reply on Numbers 8 - 4 years ago
    Hi Dawn,

    Let's put John 8:44 in its context.

    John 8:42-47. Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.

    Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.

    Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

    And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.

    Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?

    He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.

    Verses 42 and 43 Jesus is saying if God were their father they would love him and understand his speech.

    Verse 44 through 47 he gives the contrast between the father of truth and the father of lies,

    The devil is the father of lies and much more. He is the spiritual father to all who reject Christ.

    And as a side note: Anyone tries to add to the finish work of the cross whether elements from the works of the law or works of their own falls in the category of Satans children as well because they will have fallen from grace.

  • Dawn Dodgen - In Reply on Numbers 8 - 4 years ago
    I understand what it says in Gen. 4:1; my original question is beyond that.

    As a nurse (& a woman), I know about superfetation - twins, such as Cain and Abel, conceived at different times, &/or in their case by different fathers, Adam and the serpent.

    This is how I'm understanding why Cain isn't listed in Adam's lineage - Cain, having his own ancestry listed in Gen. 4:17 (& the following verses); Adam's ancestry is listed in Gen. ch.5, and Cain isn't in it. (Please see my original question above)

    I don't mean to be difficult (lol); this is just a question I've had for a very long time that hasn't been clearly answered for me. Being new to this King James Bible website, and seeing that there is a place to ask Bible questions, I needed to give it a shot.
  • S Spencer - In Reply on Numbers 8 - 4 years ago
    Hi Dawn,

    Genesis 4:1 (KJV) And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.
  • Alex Nebi on 1 Peter 5 - 4 years ago
    Please brethren help me to pray that JAH heal the right part of my body, since 2006 and erase any poison from me in Jesus Christ Name Amen! As a chemical engineer since 2006 looking for a good job, JAH please don't allow all my efforts be in vain. Brethren pray for the good hearted people that have been oppressed and downtrodden to receive redemption. Pray that wicked people should receive the mercy of JAH, repent and stop their evil devices. Pray for the homeless that they should receive restoration from our Father, JAH.

    Pray for JAH to give me His wisdom and abundance of good provisions forever more.

    Pray for my mother and father: Clara and Bawo, that JAH should restore to them all the years the enemy was trying to steal. Pray for those praying for others in this platform, that JAH should help them in the ways they're being hurted deep within.

    Give thanks and praises to the Most High, JAH.

  • Dawn Dodgen on Numbers 8 - 4 years ago
    If Cain is Adam's son, then why is Cain's genealogy different than Adam's, and in John 8:44 Christ, speaking to the scribes and Pharisees, "Ye are of your father the devil.... he was a murderer from the beginning...."? Eve was "beguiled" - (Gr. exapatao) wholly seduce by the serpent, or Satan.

    Cain, in God's Word, is the first murderer.

    Salvation (Part 5)

    In 1 John 2:18-19, he writes, "Little children, it is the last hour; and according as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come; from this we know that it is the last hour. They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they were of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out, in order that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us."

    John is stating that those who are of the antichrist came out from the Christian fellowship. He teaches that the reason they chased after false doctrine and a false spirit, not staying with the fellowship of believers, is because they were never truly believers.

    Sadly, the same is true today. There are many in our churches professing to be Christians, but who have no desire to hear or obey the truth of God's Word. Indeed, many so-called church leaders are not even teaching the Word of God from their pulpits, because they don't want to lose the numbers of people attending their services.

    But the truth from God's Word still differentiates those who are truly saved from those who are just talking and acting like Christians, being devoid of the indwelling Spirit of Christ.

    This is what the Bible teaches about salvation. The change in emphasis from salvation by God to salvation by man is part of the apostasy of the last days. Jesus said believers would be known by their fruits, not by their human works ( Matthew 7:16).

    Sorry this was long but I wanted to explain why I believe salvation is permanent, cannot be lost!

    He also said, in Matthew 7:21-23, "Not everyone saying to me, 'Lord, Lord' will enter into the kingdom of heaven; but the one doing the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name? And in your name did we not cast out demons? And in your name did many works of power?' And then I will confess to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, the ones working lawlessness."
