Re: The diffrent races

I think you can find out about it in Acts 17 and Revelation 7.

Re: The diffrent races

Ok I read acts17 so who can say that the man was created from adam if jesus using this verse God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;

25Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things;

26And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;

Jesus created all things so who can say the that the woman was created from eve and if so what race was eve.....or adam for that matter.....

I believe this happened at the tower of Babel. When God made the people speak in other langauges and they were scattered among the earth. I believe this happened in Genesis. This is where it started.

After the flood the earth was different. That is pretty much where there became different continents. Where there is a lot of sun people are darker, where there is less sun, people are lighter. There are only nine specific races, African, American Indian, Asian, Australian, European, Indian, Melanesian, Micronesian, and Polynesian.

That is where God confounded language since they all spoke the same.

Yes and the ones that spoke the same language gathered together and those groups then habitated together. This happened after the flood. The purpose of building the tower is for an escape from another flood.

The descendants of Noah all spoke a single language. As they increased in number and began to spread eastward, they found a fertile area called Shinar and settled there. They decided to build a city with a tower that "reached to the heavens." They wanted the tower to be a proud monument to themselves and a symbol that would keep them united as a powerful people.

However, God was not so pleased. He came down and looked at the city and tower and said,

If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other. (NIV, Genesis 11:6-7)

So God made the people speak many different languages so they could not work together on building the city and tower. The He scattered the people around the world and the city was abandoned. The city was called "Babel" because God confused their languages.
