Man is still missing the mark.
(1) How could men possibly call themselves by the NAME of the Lord,
being ignorant of it? His NAME is NOT El-ohim, the I AM, etc. The NAME
that pleased God to be known by is YAH: translated, Savior.
YAH-weh (Je-hovah): the NAME of promise;
YAH-shua (Je-sus): the NAME that fulfilled ALL of God's promises.
(2) AMEN! Seth's lineages was holy; while Cain's, not so. What
made Abel's lineage holy was not God's "NAME", but by following after
righteousness (See example of Cain and Abel's sacrifice). And what
made Cain's lineage unholy was in not following after righteousness
"For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen..."
