1 | Adam and Eve the first people created? | Luke 17:1 | all-cing-i | 70777 | ||
On the first page of Genesis I found something very interesting. As folklore would have us believe, Adam and Eve were the first two people that GOD created. However I found something that was a little misleading. Will you all read Genesis 26 (first page) and help me figure out who "Us" is? In the passage it reads: "The GOD said "Let us make man in our image , in our likeness" ie.... I am really stumped, because I cannot think of anything that makes sense. All-Cing-I |

2 | Adam and Eve the first people created? | Luke 17:1 | flinkywood | 70778 | ||
All-Cing-I, first, the Bible, not folklore, would have us believe that God formed (not created) Adam, and Eve from his rib. Hard to believe, but the bible tells me so, so I accept it on faith. The story of Noah is also hard to swallow, but Jesus Himself, God incarnate, used Noah as an example: Luk 17:27 "They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all." If Jesus says the ark story is true, it's true, not folklore. Here again, a citation from the Gospel of Luke: Luk 3:38 "Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God." Adam and Eve are historically true; they are not allegory, not metaphor, not myth, but gospel truth. Paul believed: 1Ti 2:13,14 "For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression." Not folklore. As for Gen 1.26: "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth." "Us" here may be the first revelation of the tripartate nature of God: Father, Son, Holy Ghost. God made man in His image, not the angels, so who else could he be talking to, or about? |

3 | Adam and Eve the first people created? | Luke 17:1 | disciplerami | 78443 | ||
Greetings, I was following some of your posts and wanted to weigh in on this one too. No matter how hard man tries, he will not pull the veil back and expose the face of God. God is in control, giving enough evidence of His wisdom and love to convince the soul. I believe in the Creation, just as it is related in Genesis. I believe in the flood and in the great fish that swallowed Jonah. I believe in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Where would we be without something to believe in? I know that the other explanation for life--time and chance--leaves me empty. God bless, Disciplerami |
