World Rulers - The First People.

BEGINNINGS

Q. Who were the first people?

                                      2. Adam`sfamily..jpg

 

In the beginning God created man and woman, (Adam and Eve) and placed them in the garden of Eden. God told them to –

`...be fruitful and multiply: fill the earth & subdue it; have dominion over....` (Gen. 1: 28)
 

However it was only after the fall, that Adam and Eve began to have children. Cain was the first born, Abel was second. Later Cain killed Abel, and then wandered the earth. Adam and Eve had another boy, and named him Seth. More children followed, sons and daughters. (Gen. 5: 4)

Because people lived for hundreds of years the family group developed quickly, with people being able to marry sisters and brothers as the genetics had not deteriorated as today.

Cain married and built the city of Enoch, named after his son Enoch. Cain became the head of the first civilization on earth.

`Cain went out from the presence of the Lord and dwelt in the land of Nod on the east of Eden. And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son – Enoch.` (Gen. 4: 17)
 

When Seth had a son then people began to call on the name of the Lord. From his line came many people who looked to God.

`And as for Seth, to him also a son was born; and he named him Enosh. Then men began to call on the name of the Lord.` (Gen. 4: 26)

 

Government.

God gave man dominion over the earth but when Adam disobeyed God he forfeited that to Satan who held sway over him. Judgment was in the hands of God & we see that when He punished Cain.

Be Blessed Beloved Daughter Of The KING

The LORD bless thee, and keep thee:
The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.

And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them. Numbers 6:24-27 (King James Bible)

Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever. Psalms 119:160 (King James Bible)

The Bible contains the mind of God, the state of man, the way of salvation, the doom of sinners, and the happiness of believers. Its doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding, its histories are true, and its decisions are immutable.

Read it to be wise, believe it to be safe, and practice it to be holy. It contains light to direct you, food to support you, and comfort to cheer you.

It is the traveler’s map, the pilgrim’s staff, the pilot’s compass, the soldier’s sword and the Christian’s charter. Here too, Heaven is opened and the gates of Hell disclosed.

Christ is its grand subject, our good its design, and the glory of God its end. It should fill the memory, rule the heart and guide the feet. Read it slowly, frequently and prayerfully.  It is a mine of wealth, a paradise of glory, and a river of pleasure.

It is given you in life, will be opened at the judgment, and be remembered forever. It involves the highest responsibility, rewards the greatest labor, and will condemn all who trifle with its sacred contents.

That Eden Was Located

Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden at the time of the evening breeze, and they hid themselves from the LORD God among the trees of the garden. Genesis 3:8 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

Where Today's Jerusalem Is

A day of the Lord is about to come when your possessions will be divided as plunder in your midst. For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to wage war; the city will be taken, its houses plundered, and the women raped. Then half of the city will go into exile, but the remainder of the people will not be taken away.

Then the Lord will go to battle and fight against those nations, just as he fought battles in ancient days. On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives which lies to the east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in half from east to west, leaving a great valley. Half the mountain will move northward and the other half southward. Then you will escape through my mountain valley, for the mountains will extend to Azal. Indeed, you will flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of King Uzziah of Judah. Then the Lord my God will come with all his holy ones with him. On that day there will be no light – the sources of light in the heavens will congeal. It will happen in one day (a day known to the Lord); not in the day or the night, but in the evening there will be light. Moreover, on that day living waters will flow out from Jerusalem, half of them to the eastern sea and half of them to the western sea; it will happen both in summer and in winter.

The Lord will then be king over all the earth. In that day the Lord will be seen as one with a single name. All the land will change and become like the Arabah from Geba to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem; and Jerusalem will be raised up and will stay in its own place from the Benjamin Gate to the site of the First Gate and on to the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the royal winepresses. And people will settle there, and there will no longer be the threat of divine extermination – Jerusalem will dwell in security.

But this will be the nature of the plague with which the Lord will strike all the nations that have fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh will decay while they stand on their feet, their eyes will rot away in their sockets, and their tongues will dissolve in their mouths. On that day there will be great confusion from the Lord among them; they will seize each other and attack one another violently. Moreover, Judah will fight at Jerusalem, and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be gathered up – gold, silver, and clothing in great abundance. This is the kind of plague that will devastate horses, mules, camels, donkeys, and all the other animals in those camps.

Then all who survive from all the nations that came to attack Jerusalem will go up annually to worship the King, the Lord who rules over all, and to observe the Feast of Tabernacles. But if any of the nations anywhere on earth refuse to go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord who rules over all, they will get no rain. If the Egyptians will not do so, they will get no rain – instead there will be the kind of plague which the Lord inflicts on any nations that do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles. This will be the punishment of Egypt and of all nations that do not go up to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles.

On that day the bells of the horses will bear the inscription “Holy to the Lord.” The cooking pots in the Lord’s temple will be as holy as the bowls in front of the altar. Every cooking pot in Jerusalem and Judah will become holy in the sight of the Lord who rules over all, so that all who offer sacrifices may come and use some of them to boil their sacrifices in them. On that day there will no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the Lord who rules over all. Zechariah 14 (NET Bible)

Glory To The LORD Of Armies~!

Hi mabel,

Yes I find the diagrams help to cement things in my mind too. As to the family members marrying, well we are seeing it from our perspective now & not then.

Enoch was not Satanic. The New Age or Satanic people have their own names for history.

Now Satan doesn`t rule the world, he only holds sway over the people & the nations.

`We know that we are of God,  & the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.` (1 John 5: 19)

Rulership has been given to man by God. Read on till you get to `After the Flood.`

and a lot of folk are blinded to the wickedness of the world and choose to laugh at it, not only that it starts to become the new "normal"

many thanks

Hi mabel,

Satan holding sway over the world, the people, means that he influences them to chose to go against their God-given conscience.

`For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against ungodliness & unrighteousness of men who supress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power & Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, & their foolish hearts were darkened......` (Rom. 1: 18 - 21)

 

And yes you are right, for if people do this often enough they will have a `seared conscience.`

`Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits & doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron.` (1 Tim. 4: 1 & 2)

lead us not into temptation springs to mind.

not quite sure what this means can you explain it thanks.

many thanks

Mmmmm mabel,

You do ask interesting questions. I`ll put it back on you first, if you don`t mind a bit of `mind work.`

His invisible attributes are to do with His character - His faithfulness, His longsuffering, His mercy,...etc & also his awesome power shown by creation, the universe.

So what do you see of God`s faithfulness in the world around? (Funny that, this topic has come up here when we have been talking together about it, ay?)

And also What do you see of His awesome power in the world around?

dunno if this is on the right track. hard to do when struggling with  the of cloud of grey ...cant see the sun behind the rain..

God is faithful to forgive us if we accept Jesus and repent of our sins.
http://www.allaboutgod.com/faithfulness-of-god.htm
    God sent His Son, (Matthew 1:21-22) through Him we have everlasting life John 3:16
    Christ died for our atonement of sin 1 Thessalonians 5:9-10
    Gods promise to remove sins Romans 11:25-27
    God ordained Jesus, author of eternal salvation Hebrews 5:5-10
    God will toss our sin into the depths of the sea (never to be remembered again) - Micah 7:18-19

After having first displayed His power at creation, God’s second great demonstration of power is seen at the Exodus, https://bible.org/seriespage/2-power-god

Hi mabel,

That all looks good to me. Our wonderful faithful heavenly Father, our faithful Redeemer, & the faithful Holy Spirit to guide us.

There is so much damage & evil in the world that we really need to stop & meditate on His faithfulness to mankind & us individually. We get overcome by the horror & hurt around but if we never saw the consequences of man`s rebellion against God, then we would still continue on our selfish ways.  We would never change. Living in this fallen world leads us to realise that it is all wrong & unless God had sent Jesus we would all be lost.

A faithful God, through the hard times, as we humble ourselves under His mighty hand.

Marilyn.
