CONDITIONAL DOMINION PART 2

Greetings Kindred and fellow Sheep.  We are on a first name basis here.  My name is walter.  This Lesson comprises Scriptures that have puzzled me for a long time.  This Lesson is not possible without The First 7 Lessons!  The Subject is Twins by two different Fathers.  From Twins, Lessons 1 and 2, do we recall Two Interlopers into the ancient names of the stars :  Greek and Roman Mythology?  In Gemini the Greeks named the Twins Apollo and Hercules.  The Romans named them Castor and Pollux.  The Bible named them Abel and Cain.  The Roman names Castor and Pollux  identify the figurehead on the ship of Alexandria that carried Paul, his fellow prisoners, and Luke, the beloved physician, off the island of Malta. 

Acts 28:11 And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux. Acts chapter twenty eight. 

In The Green Interlinear Greek New Testament, Green, transposing the Greek into English, selects the words in English that seem to be closest to the meaning of the Greek Text.  For “whose sign was Castor and Pollux”, his Transposition reads:   “with an Ensign Twin Brothers”

In Lesson 2, Twins, we asked :  did Luke and Paul discuss Dioskuroi, the Ship’s figurehead?  Did Luke and Paul call the Roman mythological Twins, Castor and Pollux, by their more ancient names, Abel and Cain?  In Lesson 2 did we trust Luke as the credible Composer of The Gospel of Luke and The Book of Acts?  Did we trust Paul as the credible Composer of the majority of the Epistles “according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you to fulfill The Word of God” [Colossiand 1:25]

(Malachi 3:16).  Did we offer the Evidence of Malachi 3:16 to show that Luke and Paul were fully moved by The Holy Ghost to compose many of the New Testament Books of “a book of remembrance .. written before him [the LORD]”

Malachi 3:16 Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another:  and the LORD hearkened, and heard it,  and a book of remembrance was written before him, for them that feared the LORD, and thought upon his name. 

Was “a book of remembrance” written for them that do not fear the LORD?  Does this verse say “written before him”?  “Before” translates the Hebrew word for face.  Does “written before him” indicate this “book of remembrance” was written in His very presence?  What did the LORD hearken and hear that “a book of remembrance was written before him”?  Did the LORD hear those that feared Him speaking often one to another?  Did the LORD hear Luke and Paul speaking to each other about the Ship’s Figurehead, Dioskuroi?  Did the LORD hear Luke and Paul reference the older original names of the Gemini twins, Abel and Cain?   

In Lesson 3 we studied 3 sets of Twins in The Bible, Isaac and Rebekah’s twins Esau and Jacob, Judah and Tamar’s twins Pharez and Zarah, and the possibility that Zebulun and Dinah were twins.  And we studied the Greek and Roman myths of the Twins of Gemini, on the Premise that the counterfeit always witnesses to The Genuine.  The counterfeit are the Greek and Roman myths, interlopers into God’s Star Show.  The Genuine are the ancient names of the Stars, the Witness to The Bible from Virgo the Virgin to Leo the Lion of Judah.  We concluded Lesson 3 with a study of 13 cases of Twins by two different fathers with the medical term for the event, Heteropaternal Superfecundation

In Lesson 4 we noted the declaration in Romans 9:10 that “Rebecca also conceived by one, even by our father Isaac”.  We asked The Next Question:  who conceived by two?!  We studied The Scriptures witnessing to The Two Seeds, twins descended from Two Fathers

In Lesson 5 we took up a rude, in your face interrogatory, a pejorative street question, Who’s your daddy?!  Based on The General Epistle of Jude we asked How do angels, like men do, give “themselves over to fornication and going after strange flesh”? 

In Lesson 6, to the question, Who’s your daddy?  we answered, Our Father which art in Heaven, hallowed be thy Name!  We looked at the concept of Coverture in early American law under The Republic, and used those provisions to discover The Scriptures that testified Eve was out from under her Husband’s Cover. 

In Lesson 7, Conditional Dominion, we examined, perhaps, the greatest impediment to our understanding of The Two Seedlines, Genesis 4:7Genesis 4:7 is not an impediment !  Our understanding of Genesis 4:7 can be an impediment!  Did we discover Cain’s Embarassment was world wide Public?!  We considered whether both Cain and Abel were addressed in Genesis 4:7

This is Lesson 8, 2 Conditional Dominion.  In Lesson 7 we asked :  What warrants the substitution of the antecedent “Abel” for “thou” in Genesis 4:7?  Is the fact that “Abel” is the 2nd most mentioned man in the first 8 verses of Genesis 4  the only reason?  Could it be that The Substitution of the antecedent Abel does not transgress The Harmony of The Scriptures?  Shall we take a 2nd Look at that Substitution? 

Genesis 4:7 If thou [Abel] doest well, shalt thou [Abel] not be accepted?  and if thou [Abel] doest not well, sin lieth at the door.  And unto thee [Cain] shall be his [Abel’s] desire, and thou [Cain] shalt rule over him [Abel]. 

To my limited knowledge there is only one other pulpit that acknowledges the presence of Abel in Genesis 4:7.  That pulpit is in Western Missouri.  I refuse to believe we are the only ones.  The Sovereignty and Omnipotence of The Holy Spirit is too Awesome in His Mission of Conviction.  (“Terrible” is The A.V. 1611 word for Awesome.).    In Romans 11 Paul has Tertius, his writer, state, “God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew.”  Paul asks the Church at Rome whether they know Elijah conferred with God against Israel: 

Romans 11:3-5

3 Lord they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars;  and I am left alone, and they seek my life. 

4 But what saith the answer of  God unto him?  I have reserved to myself seven thousand men  who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal. 

5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace. 

This is a singing, or poem set to musical notes of AsaphGod has Enemies who hate Him!  Does this Poem, set to musical notes, sing about their behaviour? 

Psalms 83:2-4

2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult:   and they that hate thee have lifted up the head. 

3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones. 

4 They have said,  Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. 

“They have .. consulted against thy hidden ones.”  Do we have Two Witnesses that God has hidden His People!  Can there be 6999 Pulpits, scattered who knows where, who have no knowledge of us?

Did we learn in Lesson 7, Conditional Dominion, that the substitution of Abel into Genesis 4:7 worked no disharmony with what we learned in Lessons 1 through 6?  Plus, we saw the mystery of the extra pronoun solved!  Does anyone present or within the sound or text of this Lesson have another antecedent to solve the mystery of the extra pronoun?

Is that all?  Or is there more?  Of course there is More!  The Existence of Lesson 8, 2 Conditional Dominion witnesses to more Witnesses.  To avoid delinquency we must face 2 more questions.  What about the Other Laws of Bible Study?!  Second, what about the remainder of Genesis 4?

First, what about the Other Laws of Bible Study?  Is the Substitution of Abel into Genesis 4:7 compatible with The Truth?  “Thy Word is Truth.”  And is it consistent with Scripture Interprets Scripture:  we are not stuck with man’s Interpretation

How do we know the Substitution of the Antecedent Abel is compatible with The Truth? 

Genesis 4:7 If thou [Abel] doest well, shalt thou [Abel] not be accepted?  and if thou [Abel] doest not well sin lieth at the door.    

What Scripture(s) testify that Abel is the Righteous Antecedent for the pronoun thou?  Is Abel listed first in The Faith Hall of Fame chapter? 

Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts:  and by it he being dead yet speaketh. 

Did God testify of Abel’s gifts that they were “a more excellent sacrifice than Cain”?  Did Abel obtain “witness that he was righteous.”  Did Cain obtain witness that he was unrighteous?  Can we see that Abel could “doest well”?  Can we see that Abel could “doest not well”.  Yet we see in Hebrews, the Faith Hall of Fame, that God testifies of his Righteousness. 

What does God memorialize concerning Cain?  Was Cain’s motive for murder, eliminating the most damaging Witness against him, “because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous”[1 John 3:12] 

Genesis 4:8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother:   and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him. 

The underlined words “with” and “against” are translated from the same Hebrew word, H413, ‘el.  To whom did Cain talk “against” his brother.  Was it “the earthy” into whose image Adam fell?  Did Adam and the woman hide themselves among the family trees of the earthy, because they were in the image of the earthy?  [Genesis 3:8] 

Is the declaration of Cain in Verse 14, a 2nd Witness to people other than himself and Adamkind?  

Genesis 4:14 Behold thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth:   and from thy face shall I be hid;  and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth;  and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.

“Everyone that findeth me shall slay me.”  Who is “everyone”?  Is “everyone” Adam and Eve, and Cain?  Can “everyone”, being Adam and Eve, and Cain, withstand our 3rd Witness to other people? 

It is the age old Question.  Where did Cain get his wife? 

Genesis 4:17 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch:  and he builded a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son Enoch. 

“And he builded a city.”  Does a husband and head of a household build a house?  Who builds a city?  Do Rulers build Cities?  Was Cain The Ruler in the Land of Nod?  Are The Seed of Cain the First City Builders in “The World That Now Is”?  Are Houses built for families?  Are Cities built for People?  Who are The People of the Land of Nod?Are they the People of Cain’s wife? Do we have 3 Witnesses that this world was peopled with the earthy?  Does this remind us that Adam, male and female, came from The Heavens? 

We recited together from Hebrews 11:4 Abel “obtained witness that he was righteous”  Did Cain obtain Witness?  Did Cain witness about himself?

Genesis 4:13 And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear.   

“My punishment is greater than I can bear.”  What did Cain mean by that?  Cain committed Murder!  How often does a Murderer commit Murder again?  And again? Was God’s Sentence exiling Cain from the Continent of Eden to the Land of Nod, a just Protection for Eden?  Must a People conduct their lives with a Murderer or Murderers in their midst?  Does that constitute Punishment of the Law-Abiding?  Is Exile to another Land and wife and family an unbearable punishment?  What then is the Unbearable Punishment? 

Should Cain be punished?    In The Fallen State is Adam the weakest of all creatures?  Is our God, The God of Noah, Shem, Eber, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, The God of our Fathers?  Does our God make Early Provision for the weakest of all creatures, Adam, after Noah’s baptism in The Flood?  If any Society spits in God’s Face by eliminating Capital Punishment for Murder, does that leave the weakest of all creatures, Adam, unprotected in all of Creation in The Fall?  Is Cain still Killing Abel?!  Are The Judgments of God “righteous altogether” [Psalm 19:9]?

Genesis 9:6 Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.

Man is translated from H120 Adam (aw-dawm).  Does Adam have authority from God to shed the blood of the murderer of Adam?  Will All Israel hear and fear? 

But God, who is a Righteous Father, put a Mark on Cain to prevent anyone but Himself from slaying Cain!  Why does Cain say, “My punishment is greater than I can bear.”  What punishment?!  Is the subject matter of Genesis 4:13 something other than the Judgment for Murder?  If the Topic of Genesis 4:13 is not the Judgment for Murder, what then is it?  With what are we dealing here? 

Can Lessons 1-6 serve us well?  Do we know who Cain is? Shall we talk Lineage?  Do we know who Cain’s mother is?

Genesis 5:1-2

1 This is the book of the generations of Adam.  In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him:  

2 Male and female created he them;  and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. 

“And called their name Adam.”  Cain’s Mother was “Adam”.  Did The Preponderance of Evidence in Lessons 1-6 show Cain’s mother was out from under the Cover of her husband Adam?  Can Cain’s Father be Adam?  Was Cain’s Father The Serpent in his Evil Office of The Enchanter?  Can a woman who has been enchanted become Disenchanted?

Is Cain “after his kind”?  What “kind” is he?

Genesis 1:11-12

11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. 

12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind:  and God saw that it was good. 

“After his kind” appears once in Verse 11 and twice in Verse 12.  Once each in Verses 11 and 12 appears “seed .. in itself”.  Are these the two basic Laws of Creation Order?  Is The Law of Seed in Itself and The Law of Kind After Kind the very Basis of Creation Order?  (Verse 21).  Is Kind After Kind mentioned twice?  (Verse 24).  Is Kind After Kind mentioned twice more?  (Verse 25).  Is Kind After Kind mentioned 3 times.  In Genesis 1, Seed in Itself totals 2 mentions, and Kind After Kind totals 10 mentions. 

Is Cain “after his kind”?  What kind is he? Is he part Angelkind and part Adamkind?Is a hybrid  “after his kind”?  What does Cain represent in this Fallen or Failed Creation?    

What does Cain represent in this “world that now is”?  Is Cain a walking stalking Transgression of The Laws of Creation Order?  In short, is Cain out of order?  Was Cain in this “world that now is” God’s Will?  Or was Cain in this “world that now is” Adam’s Choice? 

Did the LORD repent that he had made man? 

Genesis 6:6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. 

Did the LORD repent that he had made man?  No!  Did The LORD repent “that he had made man on the earth”! 

Is Cain, therefore, an out of kind being?  Is a hybrid neither/nor?!  Is Cain a Creation?  Or is Cain an abomination?  Are Cain’s Progeny a cross between Angelkind and Adamkind?  Are Cain’s Progeny kind out of kind, not Kind After Kind?  Can The Holy Spirit by Law indwell abominable vessels?  Can The Holy Spirit give Cain and his Progeny the new birth, and train them for The Kingdom?  Can The Mix of Cain’s Seed be reversed?  The Endtime Prophet Isaiah speaks The Word of God about The Irevocably Irretrievably Wicked: 

Isaiah 26:14 They are dead, they shall not live;  they are deceased, they shall not rise:   therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish. 

Isaiah chapter twenty six.  “They shall not rise.”  Are only “The Sons of Adam” eligible to live again?!  Cain and his Progeny cannot rise in The Resurrection!  “They are deceased, they shall not rise” (!) 

Are Cain and his Progeny irrevocably, irretrievably wicked?  Are they Genetically and Constitutionally incapable of Righteousness?  If they cannot “walk in the Spirit”, are they doomed to manifest “the works of the flesh”?  How Terminal is that?!  If Cain and His Progeny cannot rise in The Resurrection, do they fit the description of The “Twice Dead”

John 8:41 Ye do the deeds of your father.    

...

In Verse 42 Jesus said God is not their father.  In Verse 43 Jesus said they could not hear His Word!  (Verse 44). 

John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do.  ... 

Did Jesus say, the lusts of your father ye might do?  Is this another Witness that Cain and his Progeny are void of the fruit of the Spirit”

Isaiah 26:10 Let favour be shewed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness:   in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the LORD. 

How Terminal is that?!  Do The Irretrievably Irrevocably Wicked exist? Can Cain and his Progeny do anything other than the deeds and the lusts of their father the devil?  May I read you the applicable part of John 10:35? 

John 10:35 ... the Scripture cannot be broken.  

Is the unbearable punishment for the unforgivable sin

Genesis 4:13 And Cain said unto the LORD,  My punishment is greater than I can bear. 

Is Cain’s sin too great to forgive?  Do The Scriptures tell us murder is not the unforgivable sin?  Did Nathan the prophet tell David that The LORD had put away his sin, adultery and  murder

What does The Word of God say about The Unforgivable Sin? 

Mark 3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation. 

Are Satan’s Seed vessels in whom, by Law, The Holy Spirit cannot indwell?  Are Satan’s Seed adulterous issue?  Is the Procreation of Adulterous Issue by unlawful Marriage Blasphemy against The Holy Spirit?  Do The Serpent Seed blaspheme the Mission of The Holy Spirit? 

If someone lacks the indwelling of The Holy Spirit can Jesus do His Good Works through Him?  What is the Mission of The Holy Spirit?  Is it to indwell The Saints build “the new man” in the image of Christ, and train them for The Kingdom? 

Colossians 1:27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. 

Can the Sons of Adam in Rebirth do the deeds of their Heavenly Father through Jesus Christ our Lord indwelling?

2 Corinthians 13:5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith;  prove your own selves.  Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates. 

When does The Seed of Cain get The Rule or Dominion over The Seed of Adam? 

Genesis 4:7 If thou [Abel] doest well, shalt thou not be accepted?  and if thou [Abel] doest not well, sin lieth at the door.  And unto thee [Cain] shall be his [Abel’s] desire, and thou [Cain] shall rule over him [Abel]

Is The Seed of Cain’s Dominion over The Seed of Adam conditional?  What is The Condition?  Must Sin lieth at the door?  How many of our Kindred in America are reprobates?!  How many of our Kindred are Spirit filled?  Do the Reprobate always outnumber the Spirit filled?  Politics, said our Elder Bruce McCarthy, is the application of our Faith to every aspect of our private and civic Lives!  Does The Dominion of Cain explain what is occurring in our Country today?  Is Cain still killing Abel?
