What the eyes can't see 35

Let us look at the creation of man, the Bible makes it clear that man has been man from the beginning, God created Adam and Eve. God made man. Man came on the scene suddenly. There is no place in the Bible that describes this concept that over millions of years there was a progression of development, from an amoeba to man. God does not say, "Over time, survival of the fittest, dog eat dog, brought about the existence of all forms of life." No, the Bible says that in the beginning God created and He gives us that account of the various kinds of life that He created. And at the end of the creation week, He created man from the dust. And this is what we read in Genesis 2:7 The Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.

What attributes were given to man? In (Genesis 1:26) Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness". Man was made complete with a body, a soul and a spirit and a free will, and look where it got us, that is the free will. They were creative beings, loving beings, and caring beings. I believe they were humble beings, having all of the characteristics and attributes of God. Man was created with a free will, so that he could choose whether or not he would remain in the relationship with the Creator. This is another story in mans history his fall.

As we go through the scriptures we find that man was given many amazing talents, and unlike some would like you to believe, man is not evolving into a more intelligent or complex life form. Let take a look at a few of these God given abilities, in (Genesis 4:17) And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son—noch. Here you see that they were great builders and built cities, not mud huts. In (Genesis 4:20) And Adah bore Jabal. He was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock. They were making tents and were experienced in animal husbandry.In (Genesis 4:21) His brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play the harp and flute. They could obviously make and play musical instruments. (Genesis 4:22) And as for Zillah, she also bore Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every craftsman in bronze and iron. It seems that they were able to alloy metals, and for anyone in the know, this is a complex task. What we are seeing here is the fact that man, way back at his very inception, had abilities not unlike what we have today, we will talk more about these abilities, later because I believe many of you will be amazed at some of them.
