As with his use of "Jesus the pre-Eminent", he is attempting to distinguish himself from the rest of us. Read carefully, and you'll see that he considers everyone here inferior to him in spiritual understanding.

I don't know what the Father looks like. :confused:

The Son is in the image of his father. If the Son doesn't look like his father, then who does the son look like?
Look at this closely.

It was written: Let us make man in our image after our likeness

gen 5 says this:

3 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, and after his image; and called his name Seth:

Why was this only written for seth, and not for cain, or abel? What is the significance of this?

There are two separate Enochs and two separate Lamechs mentioned in there. They come from two separate and distinct lines.

So you believe that it is not speaking of image, physical image at all? So abel didn't look like Adam his biological father? and Cain didn't look like adam? his biological father?

Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long. Look at how many hundreds of years men lived in the earth in the early Genesis. And it was Father Adam, and Mother Eve, that were alive with them for 930 years. If you add it up, you will see that GOD said, Man shall live 120 years, and it is because Father Adam, and Mother Eve had died.

Secondly, because Father Adam, and Mother Eve, are the Principal Ancestors of the Mankind Race. Without them, there is none of us in the earth. So i acknowledge them as my Principal Ancestors, my Father and my Mother in this earth.

Yes there is a verse....
20 And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.

called his wife's name 'Eve'
Not call here mother. No verse says to refer to her as ' Mother ' . And your verse for Adam ? We have verses about the Jewish ' Fathers ' Abraham ect .

So Jeremiah was only one GOD foreknew? The GOD who said: a child is born a son is given.
