This is such a improved way of looking at scripture. I was taught too many times in a young age that the reason Cain was rejected was because he brought fruits and vegetables and not a lamb. American churches in teachings really seem to focus weigh too much on the literal words instead of finding the proper context.

True. God rejected Cain due to his arrogant attitude & lack of obedience in giving God the best (firstfruits) of his income/harvest... God only asks for a small fraction but He wants to know that He is First in your life... Thank You Lord for Your Revelation... I try to teach my kids this but they ask why should we tithe when churches or ministries won't help us. I told them God has a way of blessing us when we act in obedience in ways we sometimes can't tangibly understand...

This video is really crucial to the proper understanding of the fall of man. Most people think that man fell at one point in the garden of Eden. The reality is that the fall was a gradual process, by which people continued to fall further and further away from God's presence. We consistently chose disobedience over God's way. We fell from depravity to depravity until we could fall no more, and we became ripe for judgement. People were all unrighteous in those times, but they only continued to become more unrighteous. That is what starts in genesis 3 but doesn't end there. This is not to understate the act of man's primal act of disobedience to God in the garden, as that is what allowed and initiated the degradation of man, such that by Genesis 6:3 people had fallen even further than Adam and Eve's condition in the post fall world.

Great job with this series so far! I just discovered you the other day while watching similar videos on the history of Genesis. While most videos on this subject are subjective and contain varying degrees of shared information with some new knowledge, your presentation is wondrously watchable in comparison. And when the presenter is clear about how the information is applicable to their worldview and beliefs like yourself, it adds sincerity and strength to your videos. Thank you for not trying to present a wishy washy or completely unbiased narrative like many do to broaden their audience. It always comes across as a PowerPoint of regurgitated facts which lack humanity. Looking forward to the next one!

Ham was the ancestor of the Canaanites, who are already gone, don't ever let them tell you the curse of Ham extends to Africans. Africa was the cradle of Christianity, Africans were already Christians long before Europe converted. Ethiopia is one of the oldest Christian nations in the world. Don't bite white slave owner propaganda. Slave owners had to censor the book of Exodus from the Bibles given to blacks to prevent them from seeing a God that freed slaves. Open your own eyes.

First real issue I've found in this series. Lamech didn't "murder" anyone. He killed, yes, but didn't murder (in the Hebrew "slay" would be a good term for it). From what we can read, he defended himself. He was claiming that if Cain shouldn't die for his murder of Abel, then he certainly shouldn't die for killing someone in self defense. Later Scripture is very clear that all homicide isn't murder.

The Book of Hebrews explains why Abel's sacrifice was accepted and Cain's was rejected. It is written, "By faith Abel offered a more excellent sacrifice than Cain..." (Heb. 11:4). Cain was doing his religious duty whereas Abel offered his sacrifice "by faith". When our religion becomes mechanical and unspirited, we offer an inferior sacrifice of praise to the Lord our God.

I think I see an additional layer to the Cain and Abel story, of trying to extend self-dishonesty to one's relationship to God. Cain only offered God his sweet side--his fruit. Abel included in his offering his capacity to kill--that is to say, being conscious of it, he gives it to God to help him control it. Cain refuses to see that this side of himself even exists, though God tries to bring it to his attention, and so it sneaks up on him and overpowers him. Primogeniture tends to breed narcissists: each firstborn son is a child favored for no accomplishment of his own, but also burdened with an expectation of being perfect--or at least only showing others a perfect mask. Cain's response to his sin is not remorse, but an effort to conceal it, and a worry about how he will be perceived by others. So while the Mark of Cain saves his life, it also punishes Cain in a different and tailored way, striking at the root of the problem: he can no longer conceal his sinfulness. To a narcissist this is more painful than death, but it also points the way to healing, by stripping away Cain's mask so that, if he chooses, he can give his whole self over to God.

I'd discourage you from trying to eisegesis too much of our own contemporary bias, according to which equality is defined not according to one's own intrinsic value as a human being, but by being able to serve the same role regardless of one's own sex. Women and men clearly have different roles in the bible. We cannot simply divorce the bible from the roles instigated by God in the beginning, and which continue to be the legitimate functions of persons in society regardless of the time in which they live. There is no getting around Paul's clear teaching that women are not to be teachers over men. If we take a flexible stance on biblical interpretation according to which any view in the bible which is frowned upon by the consensus of human opinion today, is to be understood as a mere reflection of the time, then any and all biblical teaching can be readily abandoned. God simply loves us as we are, and and we're all equal persons working towards the creation of a better world on our own. The gospel, which says that we could and cannot better ourselves on our own, and required our creator to become our savior, is made of no effect.

This isn't the real story. Yes "Cain" killed his twin brother, Cain which isn't his real name was provoked when he offered all his Children(fruits) and they was rejected because they wasn't as beautiful as Ab'EL flock(Sheep). Ab'EL which isn't his real name than made fun and mock, taunted Cain to the point of rage. Ab'EL was proud and bold throw in Cain face how the God of Heaven favored him and his. The narrative of "Am I my brother keeper?" is a lie. Once Cain killed his brother he instantly morned and repented. Then he was re penned and given the Mark of Cain/Mark of the "Beast" from the God of Earth, the name Samu'EL. It isn't like they'er hiding these facts, its in the history of Babylon clear as day.

@OB CANE What Moses taught and wrote purposely excluded the pre-Adamic peoples as it was too hard to convey to the laymen in those days. The creation in Genesis 1 predate Adam and Eve, and so did the times of the "sons of God" mating with those peoples. The offspring had an incredible mutation of genetics creating the nephilim and also was against God's plan. They eventually balanced out to normal size but were of a fallen nature. These are the Nodites who dwelt in the land of Nod, and were forbidden fruit for which Adam and Eve to "eat" from. Eve's fall was mating with one, Cain's father, and Abel who was from Adam, taunted Cain to the point of killing him. Cain feared the Nodites, but eventually married 1 and helped to build a city. The priestly mission of Adam Eve was to set the original peoples back on straight after the first team of designated "priests" had rebelled and took the daughters of man as mates. Adam and Eve had a genetic upliftment plan too, but Eve's sin derailed that, and she was deemed mortal by God for defaulting.

@@obcane3072 There is a lot to assimilate. Been studying my main source over 11.5 years. Adam/Eve's "priestly mission" was not to be the first humans, as that was done already in Genesis one. They came to oversee man's development, and upstep the genetics of man by having a huge number of offspring who were to go out and mate with the races that God created earlier. Adam/Eve existed in a heavenly realm beforehand and needed earthly bodies created for them to interact with earthlings. They were immortal and required eating from the tree of life to sustain their spiritual currents, as well as eating food to sustain their earthly bodies. A location was designated and created for them to operate out of, and was in close vicinity of some peoples already on earth. The Nodites from the land of Nod were descendants of the nephilim, and their "family tree" or genetics was the forbidden fruit, off limits from Adam and Eve, eating of their tree(having sex) defaulted their mission and were downstepped to mortal(surely they will die). There was a previous implantation of a "priestly mission" to oversee the development of the races, but the Lucifer rebellion messed that up and is recorded as the Watchers, Anunnaki, and the fallen angels stories as well as Greek and Roman mythology. Parts of both of these missions have been confused and interchanged in the records which were taken from to created Genesis. Moses being raised by a Pharaoh had privilege to ancient Egyptian writings passed down from Mesopotamia, and he tried to simplify things in teaching people of his day. The Hebrew priests in Babylonian captivity had access to multiple authors, including Moses, when they constructed Genesis, and Gen 1 is clearly from a different author than Gen 2. I've studied from multiple sources but the main one is a revelation known as the Urantia Book, Urantia is the name of our planet and the revelation in this book is from celestial beings under God, not channeled from extraterrestrials as naysayers who have not actually read the information have claimed. The automatic reaction from fundamental Christians is the say it's the work of the devil, because they have been conditioned to do so by their institution. It's impossible to understand what the 2000 pages really say skimming thru a few paragraphs, it's hard to really understand at first because God is HUGE, Great and His creation is so complex for a mere human being, this revelation requires years of study like a university course, however you can start understanding things after you get used to the terminology and how concepts interlace. It's not for everyone, but if you are hungry and dis-satisfied with the answers fed to you, I encourage anyone to check it out, but like I said, it's hard to grasp in the first few paragraphs. There are lots of readers and study groups around the world willing to help a new reader. Here's the main index and each of the papers(chapters) included a playable file as well as the text. www.urantia.org/urantia-book/read-urantia-book-online

I would be curious how you reconcile the metal working of Tubal Cain with the old age of the Earth. Is the thought that the garden of Eden story would have had to have taken place shortly before the Bronze Age? Or is Tubal Cain maybe only referring to a specific culture’s emplacement of the technology?

Where did the brothers get the idea of giving an offering to God? There is no record of Adam giving an offering or even thanks. The could be a devise plot to create friction between the brothers. Also, there is a missing part of the text where it says and Cain said to his brother. There is nothing recorded. Is that a copyists error?

I’ve been studying the story of Cain and Abel for a while. I’m still not convinced that this is a story of justice. Cain gave of his fruits - it wasn’t the first fruits like Abel’s, but it was still a gift, one that has no precedent. Nobody had ever given God a gift before. God could easily accept both gifts while noting Abel’s better efforts. He didn’t need to reject Cain’s completely. But the second part is even worse in my view. Cain is disappointed with God’s response. Who wouldn’t feel poorly in that situation? If a child gave their father a drawing, and the father crumbled it up, saying “That wasn’t your best effort, who can blame the child for crying? But then, the Genesis story (and other Bible authors) retroactively blame Cain - He MUST have been evil even before God’s reaction. That’s a cop-out; nothing is noted about Cain’s supposed dark emotions until after God’s rejection. This story remains for me a tale of blame shifting and rewriting history, to make excuses for God’s error.

How could a loving God promote such a thing? 😰 Also I sometimes feel as through the Old Testament and New Testament God are two completely different Gods!!

IP I know this video is old but I have a question. You believe in evolution and that Adam and Eve were chosen as king/priests for humanity, right? Then it means that, before them, was killing a sin? Because Sin and its consequences are only given any status after that, but what about before? Like, some historians believe Homo sapiens fought Homo Neanderthals, and that’s one of the reasons they became extinct. What is your opinion on Sin before the election of humanity?

Blood sacrifice had nothing to do with sin. The anthropology of blood sacrifice is a very simple concept. To understand blood sacrifice and why people practiced blood sacrifice we first have to understand human behavior - so, temporarily, let's remove God from the equation. When a human being wishes to make amends with another human with whom they had a falling out - or even if that human being simply wishes to maintain a good relationship with another human being - there are two options available: One if the gift and the other is the meal. If you have a friend with whom you had a fight and you wish to make up, you might invite your friend over for a meal. For that meal an animal will be killed so you and your friend can eat it together. That's the idea behind blood sacrifice - you take your animal to the priest - the priest kills the animal and puts it on the fire where a portion of the animal is burnt up so it goes to God (which is why the blood is poured on the fire), then the rest of the animal is essentially cooked and given back to you so you can take it home and then share a meal with your God. That is what blood sacrifice is about.

If Cain were afraid of other humans, that means there were other humans that possibly were banished. They were his siblings, or not of Adam and Eve. This raises a lot of questions, that is difficult to answer.

How did God communicate to Cain and Able? There is specific dialogue here between Cain and God that indicates a level of communication suggested here that is far beyond what anyone since the garden has experienced, when adam walked with God. Appearances like the burning bush or answering Job from a whirlwind indicate a visible interaction with God. I would love to hear your thoughts.

Hey IP. I just watched your debate with Vegan Gains. While I do agree with your stance, I was curious how you would respond to the objection that “If christianity did not exist to begin with, these prejudices and wrongdoings that result from the misinterpretation of the a bible would not occur either.” It seems like in that case, the atheist would have a valid point that if Christianity did not exist, these prejudices would not happen, whether it is from a true interpretation or a misrepresentation of the Bible. Keep up the good work 👌🏼

Making offerings goes back as far as we have known written records. It merely shows religeons had a concept of giving gods things they thought they wanted. the obvious silliness of it was the edible offerings were often eaten by priests afterwards.
