We're all bruised, broken, damaged: Some a little, some a lot. Some by others, some by our own actions. Fortunately our God meets us where we are, and works with us regardless of our perceived shortcomings or brokenness. This blog is less about that, though, and more about interesting facts, data, comments, tricks and tips I collect from all over the web. Hope you find something useful here too :) Go to www.thepaulnetwork.com to check out my Men's Ministry :)

But the Woman being deceived, was in the Transgression
But the Woman being deceived, was in the Transgression: The most famous case of superfetation in humans is found in the Bible account of the conception and birth of Cain and Abel. Whoever reads Genesis carefully, will see it speaks of the two seeds, or offspring, right after the fall. So from the very beginning, there were two lineages: the ungodly line of Cain and the godly line found in Seth. Not one time is Adam called the father of Cain, who is not once mentioned in the genealogies of Adam. This is why Adam pronounced his wife "the mother of all living". Never is it suggested that Adam is the father of all living. If Cain actually would have been the first-born son of Adam, he would have had the nature of Adam who was the son of God, and a special place in God's record.
