  10. Why were there so many people before Adam and Eve were created?
¤ýÀÛ¼ºÀÚ: admin ¤ýÁ¶È¸: 3462 ¤ýÃßõ: 0

  If you look into Genesis 4:1-15, Adam lay with his wife Eve to give birth to Cain and Abel, implying there were 4 family members on earth. Now, after Cain had killed Abel, there were only 3 people left on earth. However, after Cain's murder, when God appeared before him, rebuking him, Cain told God that he was worried of being killed by someone who would find him (Genesis 4:15). Then the LORD said to him, "Not so; if anyone kills Cain, he will suffer vengeance seven times over." Then the LORD put a mark on Cain so that no one who found him would kill him. Here, if there were no other people, God would not have given him a mark so that no one who found him would kill him. From this story, it is clear that there were other people besides Adam, Eve, and Cain on earth. In addition, in Genesis 4:16, Cain went out from the LORD'S presence and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden and Cain lay with his wife. This also provides an additional evidence that there were other people present in the land of Nod, east of Eden.

  In Genesis 2:8-9, Before God created men, the LORD God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; in the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil", in Genesis 3:1, there was the serpent, in Genesis 2:6, there was a mist from the earth, and in Ezekiel 28:13, "You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone adorned you: ruby, topaz and emerald, chrysolite, onyx and jasper, sapphire, turquoise and beryl. Your settings and mountings were made of gold; on the day you were created they were prepared". These are all parables and we need to find their mates in the Scripture.

¢Á The tree of life is <the man who finds wisdom>
  In the Garden of Eden, there were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. They are parables and we need to find out what these trees are. If you take a look at Isaiah 55:12, it is said "all the trees of the field will clap their hands." This was written in parable; ¡°the trees" are men. In Jeremiah 5:14, ¡°I will make these people the wood,¡± and in Isaiah 44:23, ¡°Sing for joy, shout aloud. Burst into song, all your trees.¡± How can trees sing aloud? This again was written in parable; the trees are men. Therefore, the tree of life is a man, the tree of the knowledge is also a man. Now, what kind of a man is the tree of life? According to Proverbs 3:18, ¡°She is a tree of life to those who embrace her; those who lay hold of her will be blessed.¡± Thus, the man who finds wisdom is the tree of life. This means that there was a man of wisdom before the creation of Adam and Eve. A man of wisdom means a prophet who received the words of wisdom from God (1 Corinthians 12:8, Jeremiah 23:28, Ezekiel 33:33).

¢Á The tree of the knowledge of good and evil is also a man (fallen angel)
  Before Adam was created, there had been a tree of the knowledge of good and evil. But how can a tree have knowledge of good and evil? This is also a parable; there had been a man who had the knowledge of good and evil, before Adam was created. This tree is the angel sinned against God, namely the fallen angel (2 Samuel 14:17, Hebrew 5:14, Hebrew 6:4-6, 2 Peter 2:4, Rev 9:1, Rev 9:11, Rev 20:1, Rev 17:4-5, Jeremiah 51:7 (Proverbs 5:3-6)).

¢Á The serpent is an evil man (a false apostle)
  There was a serpent before Adam and Eve were created. This is also a parable; the serpent is an evil man. In Rev 12:9, "The great dragon was hurled down and ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth", and in 2 Corinthians 11:13-15, "For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness." Here, Satan means a false apostle. Likewise, the dragon, the ancient serpent, the devil or Satan, who leads the whole world astray, all refer to false apostles. In other the words, an evil man (a false apostle) is described as the serpent. If a real serpent tempted Eve, talking to her, why shouldn't serpents nowadays talk to people? It does not make sense.

¢Á Ten precious stones (ten men)
  In Ezekiel 28:13, the Garden of Eden was prepared and adorned with ten precious stones. These precious stones are in parable. According to Exodus 39:14, twelve stones indicate the name of the twelve tribes. Therefore, these ten precious stones refer to men. This means, there were ten people before Adam was created in the Garden of Eden.

  As we have seen, it is clear that before Adam was created, there had been the tree of life (the man of wisdom), the tree of knowledge of good and evil (sinned angels), the serpent (a false apostle), and ten precious stones (ten men).

¢Á A mist is an evildoer.
  In Genesis 2:6, it is said; ¡°there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.¡± Here, a mist is a parable and it needs to be explained by finding its mate in the bible. According to Proverbs 21:6, ¡°A fortune made by a lying tongue is a fleeting vapor (mist),¡± in 2 Peter 2:16-17, those who commit wrongdoing are described as springs without water and mists driven by a storm, and in Jacob 4:14, ¡°You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes,¡± where ¡°a mist¡± refers to those who commit wrongdoings, not real mist. This means, there were many of evildoers before the creation of Adam and Eve.

¢Á The creation of Eden is not of the past, but is to come, utters Second Advent Jesus Christ

  Psalm 78:2, "I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter hidden things, things from of old,

Matthew 13:35, "So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: "I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world."

 ¡ìInterpretation¡í In the above passage, God said he would utter hidden things from of old, and Jesus said he would utter things hidden since the creation of the world. The things hidden since the creation of the world indicate the secrets of the creation of the Garden of Eden of Genesis. He (the Word that became flesh, Second Advent Jesus Christ) who comes in the name of the Lord (Matthew 23:39) came to Korea on January 17, 1971 (by lunar calendar), and uttered and fully unveiled to the public the old secrets of the Garden of Eden, hidden from the creation time. In the Garden of Eden of Genesis, the tree of life and of the knowledge are all men, so was the serpent who tempted Eve. He also testified that the creation of Adam and Eve is not of the past, but is to come in the last days.

¢Á The Garden of Eden is now being created
  Isaiah 46:10-11, "I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please. From the east I summon a bird of prey; from a far-off land, a man to fulfill my purpose. What I have said, that will I bring about; what I have planned, that will I do." ¡ìInterpretation¡í God makes known the end from the beginning (Genesis), what is still to come (the creation of the Garden of Eden). God's purpose (the creation of the Garden of Eden) will stand, and from a far-off land, a man to fulfill His purpose. Here, the man who will fulfill God's purpose is Jocab (a prophet) from the farthest corners of the earth (Isaiah 41:2, 8, 25, Isaiah 44:26, Ezekiel 33:33).

  In Isaiah 48:3, "I foretold the former things long ago, my mouth announced them and I made them known; then suddenly I acted, and they came to pass". This means that God foretold (what is to come; Garden of Eden) the former things long ago (Genesis), and then suddenly God acted, and they came to pass. In Isaiah 48:5, "Therefore I told you these things long ago; before they happened I announced them to you". This means God told us these things (the creation of the Garden of Eden) long ago (Genesis); before they actually happened (before the creation of Garden of Eden happened), God announced as though the Garden of Eden existed at the time of Genesis. In Isaiah 48:6-7, "You have heard these things; look at them all. Will you not admit them? "From now on I will tell you of new things, of hidden things unknown to you. They are created now, and not long ago; you have not heard of them before today. So you cannot say, 'Yes, I knew of them.".

 ¡ìInterpretation¡í The above passage means all those secrets (the creation of the Garden of Eden) people did not know are shown to them; these things (the creation of the Garden of Eden) are now being created, not the one of the past, which was not heard before today (before Second Advent Jesus Christ's coming). In other the words, before people met Second Advent Jesus Christ, the Word that became flesh, they did not know that the creation of the Garden of Eden was to come, not the one of the past. The old secrets, hidden since the creation (the creation of the Garden of Eden), have now been unveiled by only Second Advent Jesus Christ (Psalm 78:2, Matthew 13:35). Therefore, it has now been proven from the bible that the creation of the Garden of Eden is not of the past, but is to come, and there had been many people before Adam and Eve were created. Many spiritual leaders of today argue that it has been approximately 6,000 years since God created the world, and the origin of the mankind is Adam and Eve, but their argument is not based on the Scripture. Today, many scientists argue the age of the universe is 12 billion years, an argument that perhaps also lacks credibility. However, a claim that the earth is only 6,000 years is neither biblically nor scientifically founded. In Job 36:26, God is said to be beyond our understanding and the number of his years is past finding out.

¢Á Creation of Adam (parable), the tree of life, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, the serpent (fulfilled between 1983 and 1987)
  If you look at 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". This is a parable of the creation of Adam. Forming a man from the dust means forming the foundation of flesh, and breathing nostrils the breath of life means forming the man's spirit within him (Zecharia 12:1). That the man became a living being means God gave the man the strength to have a good heart so that the man (Adam) can have eternal life and to be holy. As explained, there lived sinners on earth, and God chose one man out of these sinners to let him live his life according to God's goodwill; this man was Adam. However, even this man sinned. Here, Adam indicates <Kim ¡Û seok> at Church of Second Advent Jesus Christ, Eve is <Kim prophet>, the serpent is the false apostle, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is a fallen angel, <Park Jong ¡Û>, the tree of life is the man of wisdom (one prophet). Thus, the serpent (a false apostle) tempted Eve to eat the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (the words of Satan) as to sin against God, she then let Adam to eat the fruit so that Adam also sinned, so that Adam and Eve were driven out to the east side of the Garden of Eden (Ezekiel 28:13-19, Genesis 3:23-24). This was fulfilled after the death of Second Advent Jesus Christ in January 1976 in the Garden of Eden (Church of Second Advent Jesus Christ) until 1987.
