Things New and Old

Ancient truths revealed in the Scriptures are often forgotten, disbelieved or distorted, and therefore lost in the passage of time. Such ancient truths when rediscovered and relearned are 'new' additions to the treasury of ancient truths.

Christ showed many new things to the disciples, things prophesied by the prophets of old but hijacked and perverted by the elders and their traditions, but which Christ reclaimed and returned to His people.

Many things taught by the Apostles of Christ have been perverted or substituted over the centuries. Such fundamental doctrines like salvation by grace and justification have been hijacked and perverted and repudiated by sincere Christians. These doctrines need to be reclaimed and restored to God's people.

There are things both new and old here. "Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things"
2Ti 2:7.

The "godly-line" - it's not what you have imagined





#It_is_not_what_you_have_imagined!

There is little godliness in the so-called godly line.

Adam was created on day 6 of year 1.
Noah was born in the year 1056.; he lived for 950 years and died in the year 2006.
The flood came when Noah was 600 years old, in the year 1656 since the creation week.


There were ten generations from Adam to Noah, the first ten links of the genealogical line that led to Jesus, the Son of God
Adam was the son of God as were the angels; they came directly from the creative activities of the eternal God.

Luke 3
36 Which was the son of Cainan, which was the son of Arphaxad, which was the son of Sem, which was the son of Noe, which was the son of Lamech,
37 Which was the son of Mathusala, which was the son of Enoch, which was the son of Jared, which was the son of Maleleel, which was the son of Cainan,
38 Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God.

Little godliness is spoken of the first 10 links that formed the first portion of the so-called godly line. Only two of them are said to have walked with God.

Genesis 5:22
And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:

Genesis 6:9
These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
