hail beloved.

let's start with this...
2 Peter 1:20-21
Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

I am a firm believer in the
word of God contained in th eholy bible.
no flaws, incorruptible,
straight from JAH thru man.
keep this in mind when reasoning with I.

I cannot explain it to the I
better than the Lord Almighty can,
so I would encourage the I to
pray to God for overstanding if you
are having problems with that.

now concerning adam not being the first
man,
again, it will always boil down
to whether or not one believes the
word to be true, from God,
or not.
if you will pay close attention
when reading the book of genesis,
chapter 4:16
" And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. "

there is no mention of the people
who dwelt in that land.
the next verse after speaks of cain
conceiving with his wife.
that is it as far as nod is concerned.

now foward to genesis chapter 5:4-5
And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: 5 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.

according to the word,
adam lived 930 years.
it seems quite obvious within a large
span of time such as this that
adam probably had many sons and daughters
who migrated into the areas surrounding
eden,
and as time progressed you would have
many peoples coming from these many children
of adam.

again, if one does NOT believe the
biblical account 100%,
then this makes no sense.

either one believes or they do not.

I never deal with " half-way " belief,
but that is just I.

God Almighty can only give the I
the true revelation,
so pray for guidance when
reading the word of God.

ites & love
I
