Yakub is just niggers inserting themselves into the Annunaki myth.

Whether or not the creation account in the OT is in fact a history and not just a story, the important fact is that the Bible teaches that man is, since the beginning of time, the offspring of God.

The implications of this is profound. Most Christians deny man's heritage of God, but the Biblical message is very clear that we are in fact sons and daughters of God in a very real sense, if not literal sense.

Modern Christianity has embraced a narrative that Adam and Eve were inherently sinful when they ate the fruit, but the Bible narrative doesn't support this. The NT does indicate that because of Adam and Eve, sin entered the world, but it does not state that their actions were a sin.

If you read in the OT account, in Genesis 3:22 God indicates that Man has become like God in that we have a moral sense between good and evil, something that Adam and Eve did not possess when they ate the fruit. While this indicates that Adam and Eve could not have chosen evil by eating the fruit, it also indicates that what makes God God is his ability to see good from evil. Since we possess the same capacity, we are, in fact, like God. The message of the NT is clear in that we are destined to become heirs with Christ and eventually sit on God's throne. We are supposed to hone this ability until we agree with God on everything.

The so-called "curse of Ham" has the same energy as "wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands" or "if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands".

People can explain what it *isn't* but no one can explain what it *is*.

Its the curse of Canaan, I'm not sure if a curse of Ham is actually mentioned, as only Canaan's line is cursed.

I can explain what it is, but you won't like the answer.

God endowed ADAM (AKA MAN) with divine authority as lord over the earth. We who are male have a divine right to rule over everything God created in the earth. Jesus didn't come to earth to show God how to live his life. He came to earth to show MAN how to live their lives. He is the archetype of man. Hence, he called himself "THE SON OF MAN."

Woman was NOT endowed with this divine authority. Any authority a woman has was given to her by a man, not God directly. Therefore, if a woman wants to approach God, ultimately she must do so through a man who is close to God. IE, JESUS.

The ultimate destiny is for man and woman to be united in marriage and then to have children and raise them. Not being married, not being able to have kids, not being able to raise those kids right is all CONTRARY to what God intends for us to do on this earth and contrary to the reason for our existence.

The curse of Ham / Canaan / Cain or whatever is simply this: If one rejects the authority of God and substitutes it with whatever nonsense Satan is spouting, they are cut off from God and mankind in general. Those who seek for authority outside of Jesus Christ are under the curse of Cain. They are one and the same.

Yes, the big difference between God and man is that, while we can each see the difference between Good and evil, only humans can chose evil. God, being the personification of Good, cannot do evil.

The idea of Jesus is that here is a Good human, which we should aspire to but cannot actually attain because we are not perfect like God. He *must* sacrifice himself in order to forgive us our sins because we can neither absolve ourselves or live completely free of sin.

Whatever God does is good, by definition. God can commit genocide and it is good. Since Jesus is God, whatever he did is literally good.

If man aligns with God, he is good. If not, he is evil.

The idea of good independent of God is ridiculous. Good and evil do not exist except in relation to God.

I've always wondered about this. In the story of Cain and Abel, when Abel is cast out, there is the suggestion that there are other people on the Earth that are not descended from Adam or Eve that he goes to live among.

If that's the case, is it possible that humans evolved as part of God's plan but God created a specific pair "in his image" while the others were still just animals; his "chosen people"? And these were the first conscious humans with knowledge of Good and evil, while the others were simply acting on animal instinct?

Could explain a lot.

Ancient humans lived for a LONG time, anywhere between 600-1,000 years. Noah lived for 950 years. Meanwhile human pregnancy is only 9 months.

Could be wrong but lets say the time to maturity remained the same as modern humans but the prime of ancients humans were 16-300 years. Imagine how many children could be conceived in the span of 284 years. If ancient humans kept their fertility to 500 years then thats 484 years of multiplying from a single couple.

After only 18 years your first children would be married and multiplying. You’d witness generations after generations grow up in your household over the course of centuries.

Its extremely likely that during the life of Cain and Abel there were multiple generations who spread across the land. The Bible also does not state the number of Adam’s descendants so we may never know how big the first family was before Adam’s death.

Nah, all humans are descended from Adam and Eve, it skips a few generations from when they were kicked out of the Garden to when Cain killed Abel, and God permitted a certain degree of incest so humanity wouldnt completely die off. So the other people around are also descendants of Adam and Eve, and Cain eventually went on to produce his own race apart from Adam's line that was evil and quickly degenerated into devil worship. Seth's (Adam's son who replaced Abel) line were called "Sons of God" for their piety, while Abel's spawn were called "Daughters of Men" for their wickedness and base nature. It was the intermingling of these two races and the profanation of the worship of God by uniting it to the worship of devils that led to God flooding the earth.

Disagree. Adam and Eve are the creation of God in His image. The other species of beings were here prior to their creation. Which is who Cain went to build a city with/for. The bible is filled with examples which point out there are only two bloodlines (good figs/bad figs, sheep/goats, Tree of Life/Tree of Knowledge, etc). The pure Adamic bloodline and all the rest (mamzers).

Yes the scary implication is that there were “humans” but not “People”.
I’m not sure of the significance but it’s something to ponder. Also, the New Testament makes copious allegories of bloodlines and trees. And that some are cursed and some are blessed.

Adam shouldn't be depicted as having a navel, its historically inaccurate.
