Why is Adam not mentioned in Cain’s geniality, nor Cain in Adam’s?

Tintin?

You understand me?

Yes, absolutely. I do.

 

[John146]

That's not what the Bible teaches. The promised seed was under attack from Satan, because it would spring from Seth's bloodline. But that only means that some of his descendants were godly, not that the whole bloodline were. Also, Noah was perfect in his generations doesn't have anything to do with corrupted DNA or anything (at least beyond the curse of sin on all creation), but it has to do with his complete and utter devotion to God in a world where humanity had given itself over to evil and great violence.

Only the ones named in chapter 5 do we know about because that is the blood line of the promised seed. God is the one doing the preserving to carry out His promise. Satan's attack was to pervert the seed line. Murder is usually his first option as in Abel, then he uses perversion of the line. You'll see it all the way through the OT.

I agree with you on this much. Abel was the first prophet. Cain was the first murderer. And the ungodly always have it in for the godly.

There isn't a seed of Satan and a seed of CHRIST

there is a seed of man that needs to be reborn a new creation of the IMPERISHABLE SEED of CHRIST
