We Found the Historical Adam!

Mainstream Christian Academia asserts that history has never interpreted Genesis 1-11 literally and that the literal interpretation of the creation story has never been a fundamental cornerstone of the Christian faith. Calvin Smith found a book while antique shopping that can prove them wrong.

    I do like the symbolism of the 7days as prophecy. The 7 24 hour week is symbolic and prophetic of the history of mankind as well. When it says that 1000 years is as a day to the Lord, it means it. When God says Adam shall die that day because of sin, its referring literally to 24 hours he started to die, but also that he or no man would live passed 1000 years, I believe, with all the pre-flood people dying at latest in their 900s. It's also interesting to note that if you plot the ages of people's lifespan you find a geometric curve, indicative of a natural process, but wasn't discovered till analytic geometry was created in the 1500s. Further, I think its a mirror in the same tone of the total history of the Earth, with only 7000 years alotted or 7 1000 year periods. Interestingly, we find a lot of interesting things happening at the close and beginning of each 500 year period, give or take 50 years. 2000 BC we have Abraham born. 1000 BC we have David living and assuming the throne around 1010 BC. The 2nd temple built in 510 BC. Christ born around 3 BC and dying in 30 AD. The fall of the Eastern Roman empire in 493 BC. The expulsion of jews from Spain, the conquering of all Spain from the Muslims and discovery of the Americas in 1492. I believe also that the close of the 6th day is upon us, from globalists own goals in 2030 (-+7 years and 2 "days" after Christ's death) and then the last 1000 years of rest, signified by the sabbath will come in the millenium.

    One day to God is 1,000 years. He created the Earth in 6 days, 6,000 years. With man being made on the 6th day, 6,000th year. From Adam to Abraham is 2,000 years. From Abraham to Jesus is 2,000 years. From Jesus Christ death A.D 30 to 2030 is 2,000 years. 12,000 years, Jesus had 12 disciples, there are 12 Tribes of Israel, there are 12 months in a year, the doomsday clock is set for 12, 12 noon and 12 midnight signals change in days, qgat does scientists claims happens every 12,000 years? I believe that 12 and the number 7 is tied together with the beginning and end times. God rested on the 7th day, 7 days in a week, Enoch was the 7th from Adam and never died but was ruptured, 7 year Tribulation period, The Seven Seals in the Book of Revelations.

This can be shown by many things, but the most notable being the fact that it records that women found the tomb empty. If you were trying to fool people, you would have a man make these claims because a man’s word was taken more seriously in first century Israel. Plus, first century, Jewish historians, such as Josephus and Tacitus, even admit that the early Christians died proclaiming that they saw the risen Christ, including Paul, who murdered Christians before his conversion.

Taking the biased perspective out of the equation does show another view that comes from the same evidence.

Einstein disregarded the aether in his equations in order to discredit the physical evidence of Michelson and Morley’s experiments so yes they do lie about many things in order to maintain their worldview.

    @@proverbs2522 It appears you didn't get a very good education then. Students need to know how to analyze information and differentiate between fact and opinion so it's unfortunate if you weren't taught that. That explains your ignorance. I feel sorry for you. When you say you "know what certain scientists claim vs what other scientists claim," apparently you mean widely recognized peer-reviewed science accepted by the traditional worldwide science community vs the unfounded pseudoscience of creationism and intelligent design, so in consideration of your poor education and religious indoctrination, it's no wonder then why you don't believe the earth is very old. I don't understand why you might think Wi-Fi proves Einstein was a fraud when there is no evidence to support that claim but then again, I'd bet money you also think the moon landing and a myriad of other scientific facts are fake and fraudulent also. Creationists and flat-earthers alike often cite the experiments of Michelson and Morley as if somehow it proves their position, whereas the experiments that were intended to show an aether existed, in fact showed the exact opposite. But Einstein was smart. He knew there was no evidence an aether existed, which proves he was justified in disregarding something that he knew did not exist. These are just some examples showing how YEC thinking and pseudoscience fails, and if you actually understood reality, science and "evidence" you'd realize this.

Even during the Apostle's time, there were already false teachers and we are clearly warned about them in the Bible. The fact that some " Early christians " believed or practiced something, doesn't make it true, especially when what people CALL " early " christianity is actually often generations after the Apostle's time period. Get your beliefs from the Bible, not " early " christians.

    So the three sons of Noah were the ancestors of all humanity. How did they have children? Given all of humanity was killed off except Noah's family, they must have had sisters, and those sisters must have been the bearers of their brothers children. Very similar to Adam and Eve, in that if they were the only humans around, the only way for more humans to be born would be if Adam and Eves children 'must have had children together. Nowadays, in our secular society, those relationships are outlawed, which only goes to show how far from the true religion we have travelled.

( god) came to the realisation that he is god and what caused that. Now that would be telling. So until that is answered, video narratives are just that, someone just reading and parroting a belief narrative from a book of riddles. Quote; "we found the historical Adam" but we did not find his father. Adam nor the book of Genesis knew nothing about El Niño effect in South America let alone knowing about South America land mass and its peoples. Talk about self centred narrative beliefs.

    It comes down to a few things that secular people proclaim. Genesis reflects 6 days and God rested on the 7th. Literal days or say each day is as a 1000 yrs. So let’s say it was 6000 yrs and God rested on the 7th day= another 1000. So now 7000 + 2000 now becomes 9000. We can argue about that as well. What is more important is reading the Bible as God inspired. Noting that our LORD and SAVIOR was written throughout the Bible. If one accepts Yashua is the way the truth and the life and Redeemer for the sins of all mankind. We accept Him and understand He died and was risen and ascended to heaven. Yashua said I AM and my father and I are one. He is God. Recognize we all have sinned and Yashua has taken away the sins of the world. Repent of sins and be born again as a new person in Yashua. Being filled with the Holy Spirit. Do we cherry pick? NO. That is the way of man. Archeology has found countless proofs that what the Bible says happened. The whole word of Yahuah aka God should not be constantly undermining the integrity of God’s Word. The “Old Testament is full of truth about Yashua. Those who believe Yashua have everlasting life. Read the Bible cover to cover with open minds. The Holy Spirit has given Believers discernment. He that has ears to hear let him hear. We have a choice the seek everlasting life or everlasting damnation. No matter what secular man proclaims, the choice is there clearly written. Those who are put off by this truth is not on me but the unbelievers who may be offended. Christianity is not religion but a way of life.
