Yes Cain married one of his sisters. There was no law and every man did what was right in his own eye. Keep in mind that these people lived for 5,6,7, 800 years. It could have been his niece or great niece.

Yes, as the same way Lot's daughters has children by their father.

Matthew 1:5
Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab, Boaz the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth, Obed the father of Jesse,

why didn't God grant the law then from the beginning knowing that man had now been corrupted by sin?

Its called dispensations. God dealt with man differently at different times. I mean look, David was a man after Gods own heart, yet the sin nature showed up in the fact that he had many wives. Solomon had wives and concubines that totaled 1,000. That was a busy man. He could go 3 years with out sleeping with the same woman. Yet he built the temple. Now is the cross a gift of sin certainly not. Thats why we need the cross. The cross is the means by which we are born again and after that we abhor sin. The Holy Spirit leads us in faith. Thats why we have one wife and between male and female as He intended. God gave Adam Eve and not abigail and Susan and Shanikua. No just Eve.

It was the dispensation of conscious. God gave law to show man how sinful he is. God allowed man to act on his self and proved that man could not do it. So law was given and proved that man could not keep it. So the son of God was given. That if a man had faith in ther work of the cross he can be saved from the death commanded by God to Adam. Thats in a nut shell.

God's expectations (the Laws) were that the flesh to become like the spirit. But they haven't reached that goal.

Matthew 6:10
your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Why didn't God destroy Satan? Why did God put the tree of knowledge in the garden? Why did God allow satan to convince 1/3 of the angels to follow him? Why does God allow hurricanes? why tornadoes? why earthquakes? Why did He kill Aaron's sons? WHY, why,why, why?

Because God is love. If God would have destroyed satan, no one would ever have believed that having a world without the ten commandments would be so horrible, good being cant imagine rape, abuse, self drinking until death, hatred wars and all the other things satans brought to mankind

desease suffereing anger, violence adultery

who would have thought adultery would destroy a planet?
who would have thought not keeping the Sabbath would make created beings thing they grew up from monkeys?
who would have thought there would be homosexuals even though the procreation organs could never make babies?

the angels are thougroughly disgusted with any man or woman who EVER says the ten commandments are done away with ever again.
They see those teachers as satans ministers and will never ever think the law of God could be done away with without destruction of the whole planet

adam and eve would NEVER have thought that by not remembering their creator on the Sabbath what he told them that the whole planet would have miiions of deep wells dragging up billions of tons of oil and coal, large open land pits, drug cartels, nations rising against nations and suicide murder, assasinations and a new religion that burned people at the stake for even owning a copy of the word of God and reading it

they would never have believed that there would be a world so evil that they would pass laws to kill anyone keeping the Bible but would praise all those who pervert each other, and if you dont agree they wont let you be on television, wont let you be in politics and wont let you be in schools


because
a planet without the law of God
is evil, horible, awful and will kill everyone

do you know mankind is dead?
Chernobyl released enough radiation into the environment that over the next 500 years mankind will eventually be stelie and everyone dead of cancer?
Did you know the Japanese fukushima reactors have three total meltdowns putting out now more than 30 chernobyls?
MAnkind is done
the final war against man is done
armageddon is over
its all now for the cancer and dying and end of life
and the leaders of the country still say
Oh no problem

No one could have conceived it, believed it, or thought about what happens when you remove the law of God from a world.

it will never happen again
no one will ever say Gods law is bad, but will love it forever.

satan was the one that said
we dont ned the law
each person chould do as he wants

now everyone is dead.

No.

The physical creation story appears in Gen 1. There it is written God made them male and female.

The aim of Gen 1 is to prevent idolatry of created things.

The beginning of the spiritual history of man is in Gen 2. Adam was the first man alive to God. From his line, all monotheists came. He was quite late in the day in terms of creation, a mere 6000 years ago the bible says.

fThe Jews claim descent from Adam. They regard Gentiles as not descended from Adam, although it is true that there are many other tribes descended from Adam. Yet the likelihood is that the vast majority of Gentiles have no connection with Adam. Jesus called Gentiles dogs. The bible does not relate their history. It is my view that there were many men in the world at the time of Adam, but only Adam dwelt in the Garden of Eden. The bible never says what was occurring outside the Garden of Eden but we know from Gen 1 that it was fully populated. When Cain married, he married someone from outside the Garden of Eden, from which his parents had been expelled.

What saved you? Law or the cross? How did Abraham attain righteousness? by law or by faith? Job said I know my redeemer lives. Why did he need a redeemer? why do you need a redeemer? You think that law will save you. The pharisees thought that law would save them. Boy were they wrong. Jesus called them hypocrites and brood of vipers. A brood of vipers means that they were the son of snakes and therefore children of satan. What does your religion speak of. self work or the true work of the cross?

Satan was the one to propose to eliminate the law
now look at our world


What saved me from this world of NO TEN COMMANDMENTS was my savior
who SAVED ME FROM LAWLESSNESS
and gave me grace to have the character of God
any minister who teaches lawlessness is satans minister.

Mat 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

2 Th 2:8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
2 Th 2:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
2 Th 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness (NO LAW) in them that perish;
because they received not the love of the truth (thy commandments), that they might be saved.

Gen 26:5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.


want to be like Abraham? Real faith?

Rev 19:8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.




Deu 6:25 And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the LORD our God, as he hath commanded us.


No offense
you need to dumb the false theory of dispensationailism

strat praying
and read your Bible through

this is all milk that little children who read their Bible already know

My children at age five would know anyone saying the law is done away with is basically crazy

Why didn't God destroy Satan? Why did God put the tree of knowledge in the garden? Why did God allow satan to convince 1/3 of the angels to follow him? Why does God allow hurricanes? why tornadoes? why earthquakes? Why did He kill Aaron's sons? WHY, why,why, why?
Acts 13:36
“Now when David had served God’s purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep; he was buried with his ancestors and his body decayed.

2 His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”

3 “Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him.

Exodus 6:7
I will take you as my own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.

Isaiah 45:5
I am the Lord, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God. I will strengthen you, though you have not acknowledged me,

Hosea 6:6
For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings.

Genesis 2:17
but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”

Mark 10:18
“Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone.

John 18:23
“If I said something wrong,” Jesus replied, “testify as to what is wrong. But if I spoke the truth, why did you strike me?”

John 18:38
What is truth?” retorted Pilate. With this he went out again to the Jews gathered there and said, “I find no basis for a charge against him.

Jeremiah 4:22 “My people are fools;
they do not know me.
They are senseless children;
they have no understanding.
They are skilled in doing evil;
they know not how to do good.”


Hosea 4:6
my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. “Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.

Job 1:8
Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil.”

Jeremiah 1:5
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
Adam and Eve didn't know the One that they have not had listened to, but they didn't even know the one that they've had listened to. But satan didn't know that he couldn't out wit God, because God had already knew what was going to happen.
