Were there other people than Adam, Eve, Cane and Abel at that time of the Bible ?
The bible spoke of Cane being afraid to be killed by others when he was driven out, even though he was among the first set op people that the bible spoke of.
Adam and Eve his parents and his brother Abel who he killed. there was no mention of others but yet he was afraid to be killed by others.
You must consider that men lived much much longer pre flood , so in a short time there could be entire villages or towns like easily. 1 man could father a whole town . Some of these people lived close to a thousand years old perhaps , 500 years old was middle age . Men where designed to live for ever , but sin shortened their life as we know . God eventually shorten mans life to 120 years because of his wickedness . To this day men never reach 120 , yet Moses did .
It is my understanding from Scripture that Adam & Eve & their progeny were the only people on the Earth. To believe that there was another creation of mankind, is not only not found in Scripture, but raises questions about the veracity of the revealed Word about this important matter of Creation & also of the transmission of sin, which is seen to only emanate from Adam & Even, to these other humans.
What you read in Genesis 4:13-15 particularly, doesn't give us a clear timeline to work with. Some could justify Cain's fears about being hunted down & killed because there were other human creations (aside from Adam & Eve) that would do this evil deed. But then, the question: how would those people know about Cain's murder of Abel so soon after the fact, unless his parents wanted to publish it in some manner? I doubt if Cain in his travels would volunteer the information.
I read the passage as something that could take place in the future, after Cain chose to leave the family home & settle in the land of Nod. Cain's cry that he would forever be a fugitive & classed as a vagabond bringing on his demise, may have been a matter that he foresaw in the future, whether real or imagined. Yet God placed 'a mark' upon him (we don't know how that worked), that secured his safety from others.
I would get vaccine and continue to pray Psalm 91 over myself, family and friends. Also the,
Agreement Prayer: Matthew 18
19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
The Bible warns of pestilence (pandemic) as a sign of the end of days.
The Mark of the Beast doesn't come until after the Caught Up of Jesus's Church.
Ask the Lord to BLESS AND SANCTIFY the vaccine, In Jesus Name before you are vaccinated.
>"The Mark of the Beast doesn't come until after the Caught Up of Jesus's Church."
That's almost certainly the rationale for virtually every mainline evangelical megachurch for not even addressing the possibility of it being the Mark of the Beast -- their absolute allegiance to a tendentious interpretational framework called pretribulationism.
Mark of the Beast -- everyone who doesn't get the mark on his hand or forehead cannot buy or sell.
Covid vaccine -- everyone who doesn't get the mark on his arm or face cannot buy or sell. This is already the case in virtually the entire globe save the U.S., which is quickly getting there. If it's not the mark of the beast it's certainly a dress rehearsal for it. Is that what you want to go along with?
If the virus was intentionally engineered just so the world power structure could provide the "solution" and thus increase their power, that's a solution I think I'm gonna pass on.
And why the demands for literally the entire population of the globe to get it -- if it works then why does everyone need it. And we know it doesn't work, because they keep dishing out new vaccine variants they want everyone to take as well. And its not even a vaccine in a traditional since -- its a completely novel (and largely untested) concept called an "RNA vaccine". (Admittedly this is stuff everyone should already know.) And there's a complete blackout of all completely valid information, e.g. if you already became positive for the virus and didn't get sick (or even if you did get sick) YOU DEFINITELY DO NOT NEED THE VACCINE NOW. And why the blackout in the world press for all known treatments for symptoms. It goes on and on and on.
The crazy thing is, that after every megachurch in the country just willingly shut down for months, now they're demanding everyone get the vaccine or mask up at church (certainly true at the megachurch I grew up in.)
THE CHURCH IS INSIDE EACH ONE OF US - In Reply - 2 years ago
I was kinda nervous about the "rapture" because I sleep like a rock. In all the movies they show clothes falling from the sky. I thought maybe I'd sleep right up to heaven :D
Then I fell over the ten virgins parable!! Matthew 25; about the Caught UP to Jesus In The Clouds.
I couldn't figure out how to have on my armor of God (Eph.6) and be in wedding dress with my full lamp. Does the dress go over the armor? Or vice versa. I need both hands for the sword and lamp!
I prayed. I wear my armor 24/7; the sword of the spirit is living within me (Bible). I'll close my eyes till I feel clothing :0
Why is this subject so contentious amongst us? All we have to do is be ready; be looking. Be filled up on the JOY of the Holy Spirit every day.
I truly think Jesus just wants us to be living heaven now.
And no I wasn't a member of a mega church. Little storefront churches of the happiest people on earth: street ministers. They carry the Good News to whosoever the Lord of the Harvest sent us to. And we baptized them in swimming pools, fountains or bathtubs. Shocker!
We walked up on miracles many a time. Being able to see a new birth on a sidewalk, is a rare blessing. We would give rides to church with us the next day. Little storefronts can get loud.
The Pastor, David (and his family) were also the music ministers. Like listening to King David sing Psalms. Mega Churches are not for me. It's not in me to criticize any Church. Jesus is Lord of His Church and he surely knows WHO belongs to Him. He writes our names in the Book of Life.
There are no "celebrities" in heaven. Matthew 25:31-46. Jesus is the judge so we don't have to do any of that.
If our Government goes after the wealth of those churches, we better have a back-up plan. Let's hope we never go through what the Chinese Christians go through daily. Amen.
VACCINATIONS&CROOKED POLITICIANS - In Reply - 2 years ago
Ask anyone in here. I said we are being " "groomed".
First they say get it, then don't get it. People stay home, teach school to kids or play video games. Time out to sit in a line to get donated food and water.
Then they say it's safer, get the vaccine; but home school continues, employers cannot get workers.
Now numbers are up for the variant virus.Biden's government opens the border to Mexico, and allows unvaccinated Mexicans to come in without mandatory vaccination; also Biden is determined to bring uneducated Palestinians to USA who are HELL BENT ON SPREADING SHARIA LAW.
We have the Democratic Congress that legislates Madness every single day!
I did the google search on exactly how we impeach or force out dangerous legislators. Who will ante up and do that?!
Instead they are packing the Supreme Court with more seats for Democrats. AND THEY ARE SYSTEMATICALLY REWRITING OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS !!
In the name of Molech, Americans pay their tax dollars for foreign abortions.
Our Church's are being closed down with illegal restrictions, policing and fines. It's becoming impossible to get tax exemption status for a new church.
I personally think that even worse things are going to happen because TELEVISION IS AS ADDICTIVE AS HEROIN. Just try fasting from that 1 week. Possibly we might fast and pray after Sharia Law is legalized?
It takes mall bombings and car bombs to wake up Americans.
Our poor little children are going to grow up in all this weakness and wickedness. We have to vote for the PERSON WHO IS GOING DOWHAT WE THE PEOPLE WANT. It's crazy to vote for a person with a pretty face, nicer suit, and a BAD record.
READ WHAT THESE POLITICIANS ARE ABOUT, on Epoch Times News. They have a good newspaper.
National News is owned by the Antichrist! He's waiting in the wings like an animal with teeth.
1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
5Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
7A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
how we are protected is not said but if he gives us a vaccine to help us its not a lack of faith to get it...
remember the story bout the guy who died and went to heaven and asked "lord why didn't you save me?" Jesus answered him "not save you? I sent 2 boats and a helicopter before you died"

LOOK UPWARD EVERY DAY. Jesus told us to.
2 Peter 3:4, 2 Timothy 3:4,
1 Thessalonians 4:16 5:2, 5:6
Trust the Lord .
perhaps you might be thinking about Psalms 91
1He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
5Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
7A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

remember the story bout the guy who died and went to heaven and asked "lord why didn't you save me?" Jesus answered him "not save you? I sent 2 boats and a helicopter before you died"
remember we walk by faith
