Who Was the Woman of Cain?

 
The Bible does not mention who was the companion of Cain. I understand your curiosity. Surely you want to know the following: -If after the death of Abel was only Cain, who was married this? As mankind has multiplied?
 
Adam lived nine hundred and thirty years (Gen. 5.5). Many other children generated. The son of the name "Seven" was createdwhen Adam was one hundred and thirty years. Seven begat many sons and daughters. The Bible mentions only the names of themen. Therefore, the time they lived in Cain and Abel, there weremany children, men and women. God allowed the beginning there was marriage between close relatives (siblings, between uncles,nephews, etc.). There was no other means to multiply the species. The Evolution of Species says, however, that the ancestor of man was the monkey, and the woman, a monkey.This argument runs counter to the biblical theory of creation. God created the animals first and then created man. If God had wanted men were a product of evolution, would have created only animals. From these, the men usually arise.

There is an Angel Following the Christian All the Time?

THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF INTERPRETATION IN CHRISTIANITY:
       Those who believe there is a guardian angel always next to each believer to give protection. These lead to the following passages:
 "The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and delivereth them" (Psalm 34.7)
 "Why shall give his angels charge concerning thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot stone (Psalm 91.11-12)
 "Look, do not despise some of these little ones because I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven" (Matthew 18:10)
 "And knowing Peter's voice, the joy did not open the door, but ran in and announced that he was at the door. And they said unto them, Thou art mad. But she claimed that it was so. And they said, is his angel. "(Acts 12.14-15).

       Those who believe that angels are sent by God to help us, whenever there is an emergency or a situation that requires more care. They argue that "encamp around those who fear him" (Psalm 34.7) does not mean that all the time remaining on our side, but are willing to intervene when necessary. In the case of Matthew 18:10, there may be a class of angels dedicated to children, but these angels are in heaven because they "see the face of God." With regard to the deliverance of Peter, it is noted that the angel so soon ended its mission departed from him (Acts 12:10). It comforts us to know that the angelic hosts are in readiness to defend ourselves. Examples include the case of Daniel in the lions' den (Daniel 6:22), Peter in prison (Acts 12.7), of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in the fiery furnace (Daniel 3:28), Paul and Silas in prison (Acts 16:26) . We should contact our guardian angel to obtain constant instruction and spiritual direction. Our prayer should be directed to God alone.Remember that the angels of the Lord will not accept any kind of worship (Revelation 22.8-9). The angels take orders from God, are all
 "Ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation" (Hebrews 1:14).

Clay in the Hands of the Potter

Job said to God, "Your hands shaped me ... Remember that formed me as clay" (Job 10:8,9). What Job said, all we can say.As the creator of our bodies (Psalm 139:13-16) and "spiritual father" (Hebrews 12:9) he predestined those whom He foreknew "to be conformed to the image of his Son" (Romans 8:29). Paul expressed confidence in the Philippians, "... he who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus" (Philippians 1:6).
CAN RESIST A GODGod limited his own power to accomplish his purpose in us, giving us free will. The psalmist of Israel said: "How often they rebelled against him in the wilderness and solitude provoked! They made a tempting God, aggravated the Holy One of Israel" (Psalm 78:40-41). Because of the stubborn rebellion of the Israelites, God could not do for them what he had desired.
Isaiah rebuked Israel: "Let your wickedness! As if the potter was equal to the clay, and the work of him who said: He did me, and the thing made say of him potter, He knows nothing" (Isaiah 29:16). It is unimaginable that the vessels had this procedure to his creator. However, humans express these attitudes towards God.
A newspaper of the city where I live splashed an article about the author of a recent book. It apparently began as a believer in one true God, but adopted as a radical feminist philosophy she obviously decided that the true God who made it "knows nothing".Of course, she then came to deny that he had done, for his book describes "his quest to find a god - or goddess - with whom she feels comfortable." In other words, she thinks God is clay that she can mold into whatever she wants, "he or she" is. Often, people involved in homosexuality, marriage against the Scriptures and other sins, create their own imaginary god who tolerate their lifestyle choice.
WHAT ARE GOD"But now, O LORD, thou art our Father, we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all work of thy hands" (Isaiah 64:8). God "is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us" (Ephesians 3:20). He has the clearest vision of what we should be, and the wisdom and power to form us in this picture. But we have to allow that power to act in us.
The power of God works through His Word, through the friendship of the saints, and through prayer (2 Corinthians 3:18, Hebrews 10:25, 4:16). To avail ourselves, we have to persevere "in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, the breaking of bread and in prayers" (Acts 2:42).
The power of God to shape us is also fulfilled by the persecution and trial. These can come from Satan, but God can use them "for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness" (Hebrews 12:10). Moreover, the fine pottery has to be turned and shaped, smoothed and marked and burned up in the oven at high temperatures to make it so valuable that the pot becomes.
GOD CAN REDO U.S.One of the biggest impediments to the fulfillment of God's purpose in our generation is the increasingly widespread idea that "we have the right to do what pleases us, and is not nobody's business." He who has this attitude to people will inevitably be the same to God. In fact, we do not have treated God in this way sometimes?
When I was young, I thought I had a clear picture of what God wanted me to do. Now that I'm older, I realize how much I'm far from it, and it's all my fault. God was not able to make me what I could have been resisted because of its power and allowed other influences scholars to shape me into something much less useful and valuable. But there is hope.
"I went down to the potter's house, and behold he was delivered to his work on the wheels. And the vessel that the potter made the clay was marred in the hand, has to do it again another vessel, and the second struck him. Then came to me the word of Jehovah, can not I do with you as this potter, O house of Israel? "(Jeremiah 18:3-6). God can do the same to us as individuals.
Saul of Tarsus was a broken vase while resisting the power of God's word and "gave kicking against the goad," but when he asked, trembling, "Lord, what wilt thou have me do?" God turned him into a vessel of honor. No matter how it may be spoiled our own lives, or how long this malformation has been, if we mean to Adelaid Pollard's poem:
Be it your own way, Lord, is thy own way!Thou art the Potter, I am the clay.Mold me and make me after thy will,While I'm waiting, submissive and serene.

The scandal of the Sermon on the Mount

Few words of Jesus were so striking as those which he uttered in his greatest sermon, the Sermon on the Mount. Taking into account the political, historical and religious, they at least sounded amazing. That's because anyone who was present expected to hear the exact opposite of what was said by Jesus, from the Beatitudes to the parable of the two grounds at the end of chapter 7 of Matthew. Jesus destabilized religious grounds that his hearers had so far received.How to become a friendly message stating that starts happy - lucky and blessed - the ones that are identified by both our generation and the past, as weak and pitiful? How to imagine, at the time the most admired and insightful are those who do not "eat crow" reach its goals, which are the meek, the pure in heart and merciful shall inherit the earth, shall obtain mercy and see God?
How happy to imagine someone crying, to seek justice as we seek food diary in a society increasingly unfair and unequal?Plus, be considered fortunate to be persecuted and mocked because of this same justice? What a concept of life and happiness is the one that Jesus wanted to convey? And more: that these concepts are transmitted in our time? These questions are cruel. One thing we can not deny: magnificently the Kingdom of Heaven and its righteousness were exposed by Jesus and He made it clear that, in essence, they are opposed to the established system, which we call the world.Daily we are confronted with the values ​​we receive from the world and with what the Bible teaches us about happiness. The world, passengers and superficial; the Bible, true and pointing to eternity. The materialized in the world through possessions, status, money, here and now. The Bible's place in fields that hardly redound to the recognition, glory and power and therefore are so infamous.
In this controversy without end, the inevitable question arises: what values ​​we are guided by? What drives us: the Sermon on the Mount or the lifestyle of the great billionaires, who have their names published regularly in magazines that specialize in this type of person? Certainly it is not possible to embrace both views. If you grab a fatally abandon the other.
However, although they are hard questions, your answers can be perceived not only by words but by conduct, postures. We may respond positively and biblically, but our attitudes that will confirm or denounce our intentions.There are several ways to assess the consistency of the response of the church - a community of faith, whose head is Christ and not churches or denominations - and one of them is in the songs we sing. In reading a little exercise for a while, read every song of the Harp Christian hymn followed by several names such as the Assemblies of God. They are old songs that express the desires of the brothers and a specified period of evangelicalism in Brazil.
Hope of Glory, justification, the joy of forgiveness from Christ's sacrifice, the joy of new life that only Christ can give, communion with God and the brethren, the grace, the scandal of the Cross and its message, resignation and many other themes as common to the Christian life were - and still are a part - strongly sung by our brothers. And today, what issues make up a song?
Triumphalism, determinism, self-centeredness, personal prophecies, miracles, personal, personal achievements, personal victories. Material blessings, physical and emotional. Common to all these types of songs, there is a profound lack of biblical doctrines that would enable the listener to another form of learning from Scripture and lead to an understanding of God's plan in Jesus and thus to a life of gratitude and worship.Furthermore, these songs have a great ignorance of the achievement of all things, when we shall be changed and eternity will unfold before us to, filled the glory of the father, to live for HimThat means a lot. Means where is our heart. Means by which we are guided desires and values ​​which we are moved. It means happiness as we see and by what means to achieve. It's terrible to say this, but it is worrying that the level is much of what is said of God church. But that's another story ...
The Sermon on the Mount is a big puzzle and I - and I believe nobody - I do not have conclusive answers and all that Jesus wanted him. However, one thing is clear before each statement of Jesus: the identity of those who enjoy His Kingdom of Peace, Justice and Love. Without a doubt, these are the people who lived in continual opposition to the world as to be hated for it, as our Lord. For them, the source of all happiness of that day was the hope, stronger than any pain or adversity, where all the promises so emphatically directed to those who surrendered to the Lordship of Christ and it was understood that there is no possibility of salvation, will be fulfilled.
May this be our Lord Jesus!
PS.: I took the example of music by the evidence that she has reached in recent months, mainly because she is a true reference in exposing what we long for. Beyond it, we would worship and preaching as research sources. They also say much about what the church thinks and believes.
