If two people tried to populate.... wouldn't that mean that the sons and daughters of the parents have to have sex?

Yep, in the bible incest isn't a sin.

Lol, yeah. But, we have a booming population already. So, there's no need to give incest a thought. Bah!

Not necessarily. The sons could have sex with their mother and the daughters with their father.

Yes, that is how it would have to work.

Yes. But it had to work that way or we wouldn't have people. But it doesn't make it okay now. It causes diseases to have sex with someone related to you. I mean for your children.

According to God's Word, there were people before Adam and Eve, that were made on the 6th day. God said it was all "very good". Genesis 1:31 KJV And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

There was not a man to till the soil, though.

He rested on the 7th. Then, on the 8th day, He made The Man Named Adam, a farmer.


Genesis 2:1 KJV Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. 3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made. 4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, 5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew : for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.

Genesis 1:27 KJV So God created man in his own image, in the image of God *created he him*; *male and female created he them*.

The word translated into the English word, "God" in that verse is 'elohiym' which means God and His children. We were with Him in spirit bodies when He made this second earth age where we all live in temporary flesh bodies and He fulfills His plan to freely offer, at a very great price to Himself, salvation of eternal life in the third earth age. John 3:14-21 KJV

So, God made His flesh body look like He looks there.

John 14:9 KJV Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?



...And God made our flesh bodies look like we look there. *male and female created He them*.



There is a difference in the Hebrew that does not come through in the translation to English between adam=man and eth ha adam=The Man Named Adam. But, you can see the difference here in The Green's interlinear http://s35.photobucket.com/user/hafdcnt/media/Genesispagescan1.jpg.html

It was the 6th day people where Cain found his wife and those are the people he was afraid of.

Genesis 4:14 KJV Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid ; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass , that every one that findeth me shall slay me. 15 And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him. 16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. 17 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.
