Genesis Chapter 4 Discussion Page 17

I think, God is LOVE.We can 't change anything afterall. God just honoured what Cain asked for,because he lied to God that he knew nothing about his br...

GEN 4-23...The word "again " just means repeat, or do over! You have this thing about changing God 's word! Why don 't you just write your own bible and be done with it.

The second verse should read and she continued in labor and bare Abel. That 's what that AGAIN means.

The death penalty was not instituted until after the flood. GOD wanted to show us the only way to curb evil is eye for an eye tooth for a tooth. When we Love GOD with all our heart, mind, and. Soul, then we will Love our brother who is made in the image of GOD. Therefore you will not murder your brother or sister.

Why were they allowed to have 2 wives back then?

It 's not Biblical, but I think it safe to use a type of conjecture, that Adam and Eve, were the first humans created but maybe not the only that was created like Cain 's wife for example, GOD is a Creator that 's what he does, Creates. There is an example in the new testament by one of the Gospel writers comments of Jesus 's miracles, and said that if all the miracles had been recorded that Jesus had performed had been written down the Earth could not contain the Books. Well I believe It 's the same with the beginning, GOD has given us enough information, to either doubt it or to use that faith that he has measured out to us to believe, He is Master and GOD over all creation, and in my opinion, I don 't believe we should question the ALMIGHTY GOD! AMEN!!

Please where did Cain got a wife from???

If we worship God faithfully with all our heart and mind, He is ever ready to replace or give us back what satan has taken from us.

May I please know where Cain got a wife from. Thanks.

Part 2 of 2: They do not want to hear what will happen if they do certain things in their lives. When they hear scriptures like Revelation 21: 7 and 8 or that homosexuality or liars God does not like, they want preachers to sugar coat the word for them. They want preachers to cater to their itching ears. They forget that the scriptures are for the following, 2 Timothy 3: 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: Sometimes truth hurts. Paul, the Gentiles Apostle, when he taught the Roman Church he did not sugar coat anything. He told them what was going to them. He gave instruction to the Corinthian Church correcting their walk as well.

Part 1 of 2: Hello Patricia Cannon: I do not understand your point. However, love does not mean that correction, and reproof is not done. You are right Jesus did things in love. However, he also got angry at man during his walk here on Earth and frustrated with man, Matthew 21: 12. Sometimes love hurts, especially when you are telling the truth. There have been times that they sought to kill Jesus because he told the truth, Luke 4: 30 is just one example. We are living in a time when people do not want to endure sound doctrine. They want teachers, preachers, and prophets to always speak of love, money, and prosperity, 2 Timothy 4: 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears

Good evening Ms. Chatauna Robinson, I must agree with regarding the Way of Jesus Christ Act 2:38 . Christ gave many examples of the natural worldly treatment between believers unbelievers and it was done in The Spirit of love.

Hello Ibrahim Leadley I would like to add one more comment. I cannot stress enough that true Christianity is following Acts 2 38. The only way to put on the name of Jesus Christ is through Acts 2 38.

Hello Ibrahim Leadley I believe in teaching the way Jesus Christ taught and was an example. He taught in the spiritual and the natural on what to do. This is why we also follow the Apostles Doctrine because the Bible teaches us how to live and treat people. We can talk about whatever you like, but I do not know if they will allow all post to be posted. I do not pull any punches when it comes to the word of God. I do not sugar coat anything. Sometimes they do not print everything I say. I have discussed issues about wages and how people should treat people today. If I can say it like this religion has many institutions up under its name, but Christianity, true Christianity means to be Christ like, follow the Apostles Doctrine, and believe in One Lord, one faith, and one baptism, Ephesians 4 5.

OK C.R, let 's assume I 'm saved. Could we talk about worldly issues and the application of religion? Or is the application of Christianity the sole reason for the Scriptures, in your opinion?

Hello Jerry M. Leonard and Morgan The correct and true baptism will bring about the following Being baptized the correct way, you are baptized unto his death, have put on Christ, buried with him, and the answer of a good conscience toward God. Romans 6 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Galatians 3 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. Colossians 2 12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 1 Peter 3 21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God, by the resurrection of Jesus Christ Everyone needs to be baptized and in the correct way so saith the Word of God.

My thoughts on Genesis Chapter 4 Vs. 2 thru 4. V.2 represents 2 beliefs or you can say 2 different religions V. 3 represents Cain 's having a religion in belief of growing something to offer to the LORD to earn favor or you could say gain salvation like so many thank today. V. 4 As for Abel 's belief he knew the LORD grows the grass or what ever came up Abel just picked the best lamb that God gave him and offered him up, God done all the work for salvation. Not like Cain was doing working for something that God gives you freely. So I ask you with all my heart receive the best lamb God offering today, That 's Jesus Christ the lamb of God that God give salvation through His Son 's Cross, Death, Blood, and Resurrection. Amen

Hello Morgan You do not have to be baptized in the Jordan River. A consecrated baptismal pool a body of water that has been prayed over is good enough. As long as you have a true Holy Ghost filled preacher who have followed Acts 2 38 baptizing you calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins you will be fine. I was baptized in a baptismal pool, submerged in water with the minister calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Since you have an authorized version of the King James version online, which person is right about the true gosple for salvation or do I have to be baptized in the Jordan river which I 've never have. You seem to be leaning toward Evangelist Robinson reply.

Hello Jerry Leonard The reason why Paul made this statement to the Corinthian church, because they were already saved. If you read Chapter 1 verses 1 thru 9. Then in verse 10 Paul is letting you know that he came to teach them because there were divisions amongst God s people. He came to teach them so that they can all speak the same. It is not that Paul did not believe in baptism it s just that his job at this time was to teach a people that were already saved and put them on the right track. Paul did believe in baptism. In Acts 19 1 thru 7 Paul himself rebaptized 12 men the correct way and they were filled with the Holy Ghost.

The Apostle Paul said in I Cor. Chapter 1, verse 17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the Gospel not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. Verse 18, Paul said, For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. Apostle Paul said in II Cor. chapter 2, verse 2, For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. Apostle Paul said in Ephesians chapter 2, verses 8 and 9, For by grace are you saved through faith and that not of yourself it the gift of God v 9, not of works lest any man should boast. READ Romans Chapter 10, Verses 8 thru 13 and let God wash you in the Blood of His only Son Jesus Christ 's Cross and be saved. If you want to show your brethren you been washed in the Blood of Christ 's Cross. You can try a little water baptism to show them you are a new creation. Paul was given the dispensation of Grace for you and I today.

I do not know if they will post what I am about to say However, this is the last call. We are truly living in the last days. Time is winding up. The end of days is closer than when we first believed. Please do not let anyone trick you out of your inheritance. You have to be born again in water and in spirit. You have to follow Acts 2 38. You have to be baptized in Jesus Christ name for the remission of your sins. I did not make this up. This is written in the Bible. Throughout the Book of Acts the people who were saved followed Acts 2 38. Do not miss the rapture that is spoken of in 1Thessalonians 4 12 thru 18. Get saved everyone, stay saved, love one another in the Lord and know that Jesus Christ is God manifested in the flesh, 1 Timothy 3 16.

The word AGAIN in verse 2 is continued in birth. Flaternal twins. Same age to go before God with there offering.

Truth Seeker your right! God Covered Earth with man and woman on the 6th day just check out the word man. You 'll have 6th day as human man and then Adam is Eth Ha Adham meaning Thee man, the One the Blood line of Christ would come through, emphatic. Don 't let traditional teachers pull you away from the truth. But maybe we can help them learn the Bible since they opened it up. Anyway the scriptures say 6th day man was outside the garden.

G nesis chapter 4 is just showing what happens from Man fall, disobeying God 's commands. Man from then on sinned. Family, friends, and enemies will let jealousy overpower their hearts, forcing them to make decisions like Cain.

The issue of Cain 's wife is not a paradox, it 's just not relevant. If Cain 's wife, their first date, the color of her hair, and other such arbitrary matters were requisite to your understanding of the lessons, they 'd be detailed here.

Hello Truth Seeker Where is the scripture that backs up your claim? Because the word of God that I am reading, to sum it up, states that there was not a man to till the ground therefore God made man. Then he stated that man should not live alone then he made woman. See in Chapter 1 God had Moses write what happened and then in Chapter 2 he had Moses write how he done it. I did not see anywhere where Moses wrote that God created a woman before Eve.

Cain neither had relation with his sister or niece as you all say. Cain met a woman that God created before he made adam and eve.

The Lord is good.

Hello Dylan Jayawardena I would like to make one small correction. Cain could have married a niece if Abel had any children before his death. However, the Bible does not mention that Abel had any children. It does not mention any lineage from Abel at all. Cain left from around his family and took his wife to the land of Nod, before Seth was born and had children of his own, Genesis 7 16 17 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. And Cain knew his wife and she conceived, and bare Enoch and he builded a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son, Enoch . So therefore, one can only deduce that Cain married one of his sisters. Remember Cain had to have gotten his wife from somewhere and the only one producing children at that time that is recorded is Eve. This is not to say that there were no other male children born it s just that the main characters talked about was significant enough that God had them mentioned to teach us what happened.
