Try to stay on topic please...

  1. Probably should refrain from defining what off topic and what isn't to the author of the OP.

Please explain how this is off topic. It appears that these are very applicable questions, indeed.

You obviously want to control this thread and avoid answering pertinent questions. Maybe you don't have answers to the following questions. In that case, a polite response would be to admit that you don't know if God created spirits prior to creating men's bodies. I'd like to know why it's so important that the line of Cain survived the flood. And I'd like to know what the answers to the following questions are.

1. Do you believe that God created men's spirits before their bodies were made?

2. Were some spirits put in Satan's descendants through Cain and some in Adam's descendants through Seth?

Yeah you caught me.
Your questions were entirely irrelevant to my post that you quoted, forgive me for not seeing the connection. I don't think you are being an honest broker, sorry.


I'd like to know why it's so important that the line of Cain survived the flood.

And the LORD God said unto the serpent...I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

seed = zera - sperm virile, offspring, descendants, posterity, children

So you still haven't found the answers to:

1. Do you believe that God created men's spirits before their bodies were made?

2. Were some spirits put in Satan's descendants through Cain and some in Adam's descendants through Seth?

As soon as you demonstrate their relevance in relation to my posts.

The purpose of the flood was to destroy wicked men and preserve only righteous souls. Animals are not capable of sin or salvation.

Do you two-seedline people believe that there was an entirely different reason for the flood?

Some people even believe that Cain was the son of Eve and Samael (Satan, the Serpent), I have studied the subject in-depth and believe it to be a possibility.

Nope!

Gen 4:1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD."


The "serpent seed" theory is exhaustively de-bunked. As much sense as it would make, and as simple as it would be, life really is more complex than that.

Not true, plenty lived longer than that after the flood. the 120 years was given as a "divine countdown." If mankind didn't repent in 120 years -

Judgment by Flood.

And the rest is history.

And as for Adam having intercourse with the devil, he would have had to in order to be guilty of the same transgression as Eve.

This is why it doesn't work. Eve is going to tempt Adam into .. How does that work?

Was it? Consider:

these brothers did not sit down over a nice meal and have conversation, as we discuss online differences of opinion. The KNEW one had their sacrifice accepted, and the other rejected! They did not think this was petty at all.

Likewise, we can KNOW our sacrifice is accepted, because it will make a REAL difference. "Our" sacrifice of course not being ours at all, but the Lamb of God.

He is not going to answer you because you have proven him to be wrong with your questions.

Shepherd's Chapel followers just follow blindly and don't really think about the ramifications of their unscriptural beliefs.

He won't be back because answering your questions according to his belief system, will make him look foolish and he knows it.

Shepherd's Chapel is not the only serpent seed group out there. I don't know which group Zadok follows. But I think those groups consider people who disagree with them to be contemptable hybrids of Satan and Adam. So you have to wonder if their only purpose in posting here is to find other people who agree with their teachings or are at least open to their teachings. They certainly show little interest in discussion.

Think again. That accusation is laughable actually. I can only speak for myself of course...you are pig-headed but not a Kenite.

You are the one not discussing the scriptures in this thread. If you would stay on topic and stop playing "gotcha", it would be far more productive.

three paragraphs ... three accusations ... I choose to remember that Jesus is not the accuser ... that is a spirit not of the Lord

Serpent Seed people are full of accusations. To declare that some humans descend from Satan with absolutely nothing to back up such nonsense is totally wrong, but you try to jump on another person saying that they are not Christlike.


You claimed to be gone, but unless you were interested in what was being discussed, you wouldn't know that anyone mentioned Shepherd's Chapel.


I don't consider myself in charge of another's conversion. But I am called to declare what is true. And if something is false, the Christian needs to be bold enough to say so.

A another fine example of speaking the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15) Why would you propose that anyone not of your theological persuation would want to discuss anything with you if you are going to fire off these very unkind, subjective insults? Perhaps all could be better served if you stuck to the topics at hand instead of groveling around in the muck hole looking for words to insult with.


You are the one not discussing the scriptures in this thread. If you would stay on topic and stop playing "gotcha", it would be far more productive.

And if you would be willing to discuss the topic(s) instead of appointing yourself as supreme teacher and refusing to discuss any verse other than the ones that are posted or approved by you, there would be more room for understanding.

I don't believe that anyone here is qualified enough to be considered the final authority on any Bible passage, do you?

1. Are Christians pig-headed in your view?

2. Which people are the Kenites?

3. Do Kenites write Christian quarterlies?

"How many today are teaching from a quarterly written by a Kenite, rather than teaching from God's Word?" (Shepherd's Chapel Newsletter #193, Nov. 1994).

Serpent Seed people are full of accusations. I know this first hand. To declare that some humans descend from Satan with absolutely nothing to back up such nonsense is totally wrong

Actually there's plenty to back this up. Noah's flood, for example. And some lived after that too, which is how we get some horrible sections of the OT, like genocide. And Jesus said the days of the Son of Man would be like the days of Noah were. Enoch left us a detailed record of that, and those 400 years Noah was preparing the ark, it wasn't pretty. Depending on how you read Rev, you could expect what's ahead to be worse!

[Please note that this does NOT revert back to any previous bickering in the thread, and any such creature would be NOTABLY different and worse than any claims made so far]

Not one single Bible verse supports this idea of Satan having had sex with Eve and Adam. Not one.

Unlike unapologetic Identity preachers, Murray doesn't condone or suggest violence against the "Kenites." "Let's get one thing straight, coming out the gate. Are you saying we should hate Judah? That would be stupid indeed," he says in one recorded sermon. Instead, Murray encourages followers to focus their energy on identifying and avoiding Kenites, claiming an end-times event will "take care" of them. In "Kenites," a widely distributed audio sermon, he claims this teaching comes directly from Jesus. Murray uses the New Testament parable of the "tares," a bitter weed that Jesus warns can grow hidden in wheat fields and go unnoticed till harvest. Murray likens the tares to the Kenites, adding, "The angels will take care of the tares — the tares are taken together in the fire — that's the end of the world — that's how it's going to be."

For Murray, the end of the world isn't an abstraction. The 1980 Mount St. Helens eruption that happened during the week of Pentecost led him to proclaim the Antichrist would return in 1981. Murray's resolve has only hardened during the 27 years since that prophecy failed to come true. He dismisses his critics as "numbskulls," "Bible-thumpers" and "yo-yos."
