Christmas reveals to us that God knows us and our problem, He loves us because we are precious to Him, and He saves us because heaven is where we ought to belong.

1 John 4:9-10 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Christmas was God’s idea. It has never been ...read more

Who Was Cain's Wife?

Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 6, 2015

Some have adopted the viewpoint that Cain's wife belonged to a separate group of people with little or no connection with Adam and Eve. However, the Gospel message requires that all have descended from Adam and Eve..

Why is it important? Many skeptics have claimed that, for Cain to find a wife, there must have been other ‘races’ of people on the Earth who were not descendants of Adam and Eve. To many people, this question is a stumbling block to accepting the creation account in Genesis and its ...read more
