If you get to Heaven you will be able to pick out Adam and Eve immediately....they are the couple without belly buttons................
Jesus believed in them. I don’t see why I should do otherwise.
If Adam and Eve were the first two persons on this planet, what about the inbreeding that would have occured from their own children and their offspring?
How could they not?
Yes, and I have the Renaissance paintings to prove it.
Did Adam and Eve really exist?
I’m more intrigued by the question: “Did they have belly buttons?”
(Yes, they existed)
Those who don’t really believe love an overly symbolic interpretation of scripture because it lets them allegorize their way to whatever conclusion they’ve already decided they want to reach. If Adam and Eve didn’t exist then Christ is a liar.
well; there was a Man who DID (does) exist that evidently thought so:
Jesus replied. “But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female.’ ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” (Mk 10:6-9)
“Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” (Mt 19:4-6)
Did Adam and Eve Really Exist? >>>
Yes!! And to prove they do exist, Jesus spoke of I think Able... also 1Timothy 2:13 “For Adam was formed first, then Eve.” Jude 1:14 4
Romans 5:14 “But death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who did not sin after the pattern of the trespass of Adam, who is the type of the one who was to come.”
Enoch, of the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied also about them when he said, “Behold, the Lord has come with his countless holy ones” 1st Chronicles 1 Adam, Seth, Enosh,
2Kenan, Mahalalel, Jared,3Enoch, Methuselah, Lamech,4Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
“God is not a divine being with a magic wand” the pope.
This is how the Catholic doctrine of creation and Genesis is conventionally presented, both to FReepers and to the world.
I want my rib back if they did not.
At some point, humans began their God given ability to abstract information from their environment. When that occurred, thus Adam and Eve.
