Wait, it said "generations"?
not the sense of the word you are thinking it’s the “ origination of “

like in this sense

“These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,”
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭2:4‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;”
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭5:1‬ ‭KJV‬‬

The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.”

you don't wake the sleeping by jumping in need with them. IF God called you to wake those who are asleep, then you would be able to do so. The Holy Spirit is more than able to open their understanding of who God is. My words or yours even in said in a well thought out way will fall on death ear without the Holy Spirit and the word of God.

Believers don’t get a free pass either brother . Salvation was pie for at the highest of all Prices.

“Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.

And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.

He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭26:38-39, 42‬ ‭KJV‬‬

our salvation comes because of the sorrow , shame , false accusations , mockery , beatings , humiliations , suffering and eventual agonizing death of Jesus Christ. We were bought with that price

“What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭6:19-20‬ ‭

“And they laid their hands on him, and took him.....

...And they all forsook him, and fled.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭14:46,

“And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus to put him to death; and found none.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭14:

“Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy. What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death.

Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands,

Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee?”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭26:65-68‬ ‭

“And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.

And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.

...And they cried out again, Crucify him.

Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done?

And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.

And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.

And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band. And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,

And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him. And when they had mocked him,

they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭15:1, 3, 13-20‬ ‭

of course we understand he endured even more but the point is salvation is not a free pass for anyone . We belong to Jesus now because he suffered and died on our behalf in order to redeem us from sin and death .

salvation is an expensive treasure that God is freely offering those who will believe the gospel. Believing the gospel leads to understanding the cost of salvation

“And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.

For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?

For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭9:23-26‬ ‭KJV‬‬

the use of the term soul is found in Matthews account

“Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.

For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭16:24-27‬ ‭

salvation costs our worldly life as we live for this world and ourselves we must begin to lay that down and love for the gospel that’s when we find our lives

what I’m saying is it’s not free it’s freely offered if we believe but it costs a lot first Jesus gave all and then we must repent and believe which leads us laying our selves down and taking up our cross to reach this place

“And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.”

“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin;

and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭5:12‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Adam caused the conflict of good and evil to be inside of our nature making us sinners , but it is our own sins that we are accountable for now that we’re all sinners

what Adam did was corrupt mankind’s knowledge of Good and evil we were good his transgression made us good and evil in one being causing a conflict and the reason we need salvation and reconciliation

“It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God.

Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.

Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.”
‭‭John‬ ‭6:45-47‬ ‭

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

“And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?

For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.”
‭‭Titus‬ ‭2:11-15‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.”

  • “I was beside Him (God) as a master worker… I rejoiced over His habitable earth, And I was especially fond of the sons of men”
  • Proverbs 8.30,31

I wonder if “sons of men” could mean there were humans without souls before Adam. Did Jesus want to give these humans souls?

  • “Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness”
  • Genesis 1.26

Is there something preventing man from existing first before They made them in Their image? Could, in Their image, mean to have a soul?

Would this destroy the evolution excuse?
I find the interpretation interesting but it would have to reconcile with Gen 3:20, "And Adam called his wife’s name Eve, because she was the mother of all living."

Under the theory that other men existed prior (concurrently?) to Adam, every descendant of Adam and Eve would have had to have bred with all other non-Adam humans (be fruitful and multiply over the course of 800 years) meaning those original non-Adam humans would have died out by the time Eve was named (in order to qualify her as the mother of all living). This would make an interesting concept for the land of Nod and who Cain's wife was (a hybrid). The concept seems compatible but there is also seemingly nothing to suggest it is the case.

What about the creation story there was nothing and then the lord created everything . When would the other humans have been created on earth if it was made a few days prior ?

I wonder how long adam
And Eve were in Eden before they are the fruit ? Could have been a very long time before they are the forbidden fruit. And possible that there’s a lot we don’t know from Moses earliest writings there in genesis.

It is interesting where the land of nod came from ? and who populated it ? , who was Cain so of afraid killing him when God sent him away ?

never have wondered before but reading you and the other brothers conversation makes me wonder

God bless

what Adam did was corrupt mankind’s knowledge of Good and evil we were good his transgression made us good and evil in one being causing a conflict and the reason we need salvation and reconciliation
You make it sound like Jesus died for original sin and not individual sins. That would be fine with me, I just want to know what the actual deal is.

Eve, the mother of all living-souls.

You make it sound like Jesus died for original sin and not individual sins. That would be fine with me, I just want to know what the actual deal is.
brother , Jesus died for all sin from cains sin to mine and yours his blood covers all of it . What I’m saying is “theblood” is the blood of the new covenant .


His blood purchased all creation from sin and death . The reason we’re talking about a covenant is the word and the blood . That makes a covenant . First the word is preached to the people , then after the word of the covenant is preached , the blood of the covenant is shed like this

The word and then the blood of the covenant

“And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people:

and they said, All that the Lord hath said will we do, and be obedient.

And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the Lord hath made with you concerning all these words.”
‭‭Exodus‬ ‭24:7-8‬ ‭KJV‬‬

the blood covers the words of the mediator . Moses law there was covered by the blood of goats and bulls as a pattern of the new covenant of Jesus word , and Jesus blood . The new covenant was the same when it came first Jesus preached the gospel to all Israel , then he told them to believe and be saved , then he shed the blood for remission of the proir covenant

the old had to be fulfilled before the new could be given. Thisnisnwhybjesus died to remit our sins under the covenant that says all
Sinners must die .

“And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.

For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭9:15-17‬ ‭

Jesus death covers all sin because all sin is under the mosaic law the prior covenant. Remitting our transgression to the law that we have repented of

“Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭3:

the blood is the sacrifice for sins but the word is the eternal judgement of mankind

to be saved we need faith as well as atonement . We need the word as well as the blood . Jesus covers all sin , but it is all done according to his word

if The people under Moses had said “ forget the law , we have a daily sacrifice for sins and a yearly atonement we don’t need the word . The law would have not helped

it’s the same in Christ his blood is precious and the source of forgiveness but his word is eternal
Life or eternal damnation

Is it a two-tier system? One of fallen state, the other for specific sins? So you have to open the door to God for both to be forgiven?
Could a fallen state be different than original sin?

Adam made us sinners by what he did . He changed mankind’s nature from like God to this state within us

“I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.

For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭7:21-23‬ ‭KJV‬‬

that was not designed by God it was caused by transgression that good and evil Nature in conflict results in doing what God commanded them not to do

“But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.”
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭2:17‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Man is not designed to be conflicted like that we have good and evil within us but it’s not Gods design . A sinner is one who is on a struggle between good and evil that’s what adams transgression caused

but we are each accountable for our own sins now . We have the gospel to deal with our sins and the knowledge of evil is purged through faith built on his truth rather than satans lie
