Gen 1:27-28
So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”

It is clear here that God created men and women(plural, many) and gave them authority over all creatures and told them to be fruitful and multiply, etc.

And on the seventh day God rested.
Time passed.



Then in Gen 2. God creates a special man called Adam and puts him in charge of the Garden of Eden.


Gen 2:7-8

7 Then the Lord God formed a man[c] from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.

8 Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed. .

You asked if Adam was the first man God created. I answered you no and gave you biblical explanations.


You are now asking a different question entirely instead of acknowledging the first question.
What has the second question got to do with this thread?

What about mutations and trasmutations on chromosomal DNA over the aeons?

Every single tribe in this world including urs have their unique story of creation, believing Adam story is part of the physiological effect of colonization which made u think urs is inferior! U have d right to believe what u want.

pay little attention to the atheists, for the Bible calls them f00lish....ask them how animals came into existence and why apes are the only animals that evolved....

Didn't realy read the whole post, my bad!

Barnabaseloka:

1. Op, which one do you believe as a christian- God's word or theories propounded by men?
2. If you know of any man that came before Adam, p/s tell us.
3. If man originated from ape, why has man not evolved to a higher form or has evolution stopped?
4. Why was Eve given to Adam, and what is the meaning of 'be fruitful and multiply, fill the earth and subdue it' commanded by God to Adam and Eve? (Gen.1:28)

We've actually evolved... Make Google ur frnd...

if u find it difficult to believe that adam was d first man , will find it difficult to believe the birth of Jesus Christ. if u need answer to ur question, ask God for insight, He will surely reveal it to u.

The truth of the matter is many of you young people do not read. You carry the kindergarten knowledge of the bible you learnt while in school into adulthood. Then when you see a small scientific research you get confused and excited and start running about with this new-found knowledge that really isn't new at all and start blaspheming against God cos u feel Christianity has been oppressing you or holding you back from whatever it is you want to do.

It's a pity that many of our pentecostal churches are money and power oriented and Not really interested in increasing knowledge and the understanding of the scriptures for the love of God. Else a lot of these questions would have been answered.

Get the 1-year Bible Reading Plan today and start searching the Scriptures. I assure you that this time next year, you will pray to God for forgiveness, for ever asking this kind of question.

Rubbish .....hypocrites....if u no fit answer ...gerrout!

Barnabaseloka:

The proof is that the word of God said so.
God's word might sound foolish but know that the foolishness of God is wiser than the wisdom of men. 1 Corinth.1:25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than the wisdom of men.
1 Corinth.2:13-14
13. These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14. But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Everything that is written in the Scriptures is by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Only those that are spiritual will understand it, not those who see before believing God's word.
John 20:29 Jesus said to him, Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.

I have to quote from the bible b/c you said that you are a christian. If you were an atheist, I would not have wasted time discussing with you.
The way christians walk with God is that of FAITH (believing what the Scriptures say, even when we have not seen them).

Tell me how you believed in God, who is unseen and do not believe His word on creation b/c it cannot be proven scientifically. Are you not one-sided? If you want to believe science above God's word, do it wholesomely. If you want to believe God's word above science, do it completely.

If the word of God said that the first man was Adam and you do not believe it, then who was the first man that evolved from ape?

I love this your write up. Just ask him this question again. Why is APE stop tranform to human being?

Bros, I expected u to decode the pun in that statement, guess it was lost on u.

what I meant is, the discourse is way beyond some people's imagination let alone comprehension.

there is no scientific explanation/interpretation to an allegory.

sylarsquins:


I'm not disputing the fact that God is real, or Christians n der beliefs. I jst don't believe in the bible on its idea of the origin of man

I'm sure you and the OP are atheist. No need being offended. I takk am as I see am.

I believe in the scientific explantion on the evolution of man because it provides acuurate details and explanation on how Man came into being.

The Christian point of view is base on beliefs, no true facts recorded and besides fossils of the early Man are still being dug out by archaeologist.

Ask youself this one question, what is the proof that Adam was indeed the 1st man on earth?.

With the above statement, you seems to have made up your mind about what to believe. Frankly, so many theories of God is mysterious. Science will never be able to answer a lots of them. Take your time and do a comprehensive study (not just read king James version) of Gen. 1-4. You will find your answers there. First, you have to free your mind of any belief, for better understanding.

Adam was the first Hebrew man but not the first Nigerian nor the first Eskimos.

This is how people fail in an argument even before it starts. the person you are replying have not even proposed a stance and you just assumed up one and threw into your reply. . . Hhmmmm when boys of low intellect dabble into the arena of logic. . kabooosh catastrophic!!!

Pls let's nt argue much....someone shld read Job 38 n 39......we will understand d limit science can go......after readn it we will understand dat God is far beyond wat we think n wat science says....thanks

The rate at which we christians are backsliding lately is alarming.

This OP just chose science over the bible...hmmm well its understandable, we are weak of waiting on rapture...''We are in d end times'',has been a tune on lips since adam.its diddficult to be patient these days esp when the world is develpoing so fast, no indivisual wants to be left in the previous century.
