1 | please, where do races come from ? | 1 Corinthians | Timothy Paul | 59203 | ||
A friend says she believes in spirits, but she does not believe in the Holy Spitit, because she feels the Bible is "bunk". Her main reason is that no way, in her mind can people of different skin colors come from the same set of parents, a la Adam and Eve. "Nor does" in her words does the Bible ever try to explain this. Please help me send the right message to this angry young lady, I promised I would try to find the answer. I Thank you, and so will "Nicole" Faithfully, Tim |

Well Adam and Eve didn't come from any parents did they? That's because God can do all kind of neat stuff that we can't comprehend. Wrap your mind around this- their children could have been of different "races" when they were born. You know they had other children after Cain and Abel, right (Christ descended from Seth)? OK, get some of this- some folks believe that all black people descended from Ham, Noah's son whom he cursed ("you will serve your brethen") for making fun of him when he got drunk and naked, and yes the wine had alcohol back then because the verse says he was a "husbandmen", grew grapes, and was "drunken". Anyway, the world had to be repopulated after the flood, so the race thing would have had to start thereabouts. Jacob's oldest son married an "Ethiopian woman". There are references to Ethiopia going way back, so there were blending of the races way back when. If it didn't happen right after the flood, then it certainly happened after the tower of Babel (Babyl as in Babylon). Recessive genes are a complicated topic. If God wanted you to have a blue child, then you would have a blue child. I don't understand why people will believe Charles Darwin, who popped up 150 years ago with wild ideas ( he was a freak in his time) but won't believe the Bible which has been handed down for thousands of years. Pre-destination I suppose. Not all of us are going to make it. | ||||||

God's day to you, Motengator, and welcome to the SBF. This is a old post, and I doubt Timothy Paul will respond ... the last time he posted was three years aso. Searcher |
