Bible Question:
My question relates to the creation of mankind. We know that God created Adam and Eve. Did God create others as he did Adam and Eve? Since Eve gave birth to three sons, at least two of these sons took on wives and Cain feared being killed by others when he was sent to The Land of Nod. So where did the wives and others come from? |
Bible Answer: You mean like, on the 8th day? What does the Bible say about it? Does it mention other human creations, as specifically as it does Adam and Eve? If the Bible is silent on a subject, we also should be. For the Bible says: 2 John 1:9 "Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son." Jesus never taught about another human creation. He never taught about an eighth day creation. Another creation does not point the way to Christ.
