Hi John: I'm truly sorry for the over sight, I thought I was being very, clear in what I wrote because I did say Doesn't it make more sense that NOAH had all the DNA, because we are all descendents of him. Or were Noah, and his sons, all the different races, before the flood ? My personal belief, I have posted before, is this. Everything changed when the language was confounded in Babylon. ( Post Flood ). Just what was it that you did not understand, it is a given, that Noah was alive after the flood. People that are not saved know this. So to rectify the matter for you, Gen. 6:13-19 (Eight people) survived the flood I asked you for scripture, to back up the statement made by Val. that you apparently agreed with, That Adam had all the DNA in him for the different Races. There is no scripture for that theory. I did not say my theory was true, I said it made more sense, because of the confusion of the language event in history. The possibility of both events taking place at the same time. According to your own posts you knew exactly where I was going, you said yourself in your 2nd. Note to ME, that you saw my point. Jim: Oh, Ok, I see your point: My advice to you is this. Start back at the beginning, read through what you said, then what my answer to your points were, I said it 1,000 X's So there will not be any misunderstanding, on anything. The Theory that, " Adam who had the DNA for all the features we see in humankind". Cannot be backed up by scripture. There isn't even 1 scripture that you could misconstrue, to get to that point. That is what is called Dogma, a statement made, as a statement of truth, not based in fact. I did not say my theory was fact, I said it was an alternative, that made more sense. My personal belief, I have posted before, is this. Everything changed when the language was confounded in Babylon. ( Post Flood ). To me it makes most sense, because that's when a CHANGE took place that ( WAS DOCUMENTED ). To me that was the time, that God also changed the RACES. But if you want to believe the lie, that cannot be substantiated by scripture, but only on the basis, because it has been put forth by (SCHOLARS) go right ahead. Subject: 3 brothers descendants changed Note: Well, Jim, Most Scholars agree however, though we cant say at what point God put the ability to diversify in man, we can agree that it was in Noah's sons, from Noah, since they are his direct descendent's, and as it is agreed, they spread out and repopulated the earth. As the theory goes however (there's that word again :-) as language was confused and spread across the earth it was adopted by the descendant's of Noah's sons. But like you said that may be just conjecture. The important thing is that God did it. Shalom John GOD BLESS Jim |

Dear Jim, I have read this whole long thread and something struck me that Val pointed out early on and here is a complete quote of her post that actually addressed the issue directly with scripture what God did in placing one man on the earth from whom came all the nations. Quote, Val; "The Bible and “Race” The Bible does not even use the word race in reference to people, but it does describe all human beings as being of “one blood” (Acts 17:26). This of course emphasizes that we are all related, as all humans are descendants of the first man, Adam (1 Corinthians 15:45), who was created in the image of God (Genesis 1:26–27).16 The Last Adam, Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15:45) also became a descendant of Adam. Any descendant of Adam can be saved because our mutual relative by blood (Jesus Christ) died and rose again. This is why the gospel can (and should) be preached to all tribes and nations. - Answers in Genesis "The Bible and Race" Do you see what the Bilble says about where all peoples comes from, which would include all races as you described them in one of your posts as being the divisions of peoples? Whether we can begin tracing the actual break point for diversity as stemming from the descendants of Noah, or the Tower of Babel, the Bible says that God made every nation from one man, being Adam. I have been reading your posts on this and see one thing about what you are saying there; Quoting you; "The Theory that, " Adam who had the DNA for all the features we see in humankind". Cannot be backed up by scripture. There isn't even 1 scripture that you could misconstrue, to get to that point." I do believe that the Acts 17:26 scripture does provide Biblical evidence that from Adam's DNA, I like the word blood better, comes all nations. We don't have scritural proof of when God diversified the "races" the way you defined "races", all we have is conjecture about it by saying that when the Tower of Babel happened that it means the "races" got created. We have the wife of Moses who was a Cushite, a Ethiopian woman, descendants of Ham who settled in Ethiopia. Historicaly speaking Ethiopians are said to have been dark are named after Cush, the descendant of Ham. But Ham was born before the flood so then the diversity could be said to begin before the flood, which goes more to Adam having the blood of all the nations in him, then it does to DNA changing after the flood. In DNA dominant traits prevail between parents in offspring, at some point before the flood some dominant traits came about that originated in Adam, the father of everyone, in the parents of at least Ham to eventualy produce a Cushite, a darker skinned individual. We can't say that Adam's DNA did not play a part because all genes originate from him, that is scientific fact that is not contradicted by the Bible. That is just what I could see about this... God's Day To You, Tamara |
