Prophet's Column “God’s Division” « • Ifii The word “Genesis” means origin, or beginning. And rightly so, the first book in God’s Word is called Genesis. The Bible is the Word of God whether any man believes it. It is absolute, eternal, unbrok en, inerrant, and verbally inspired. I’m completely satisfied that my King James Bible is the Bible the Lord God of Heaven means for us to use today. How do I know that is true? This is the Bible the blessed Holy Spirit used to reveal my nature to me under Holy Spirit conviction (Jn. 16:7-11), and to reveal Christ to my heart as my Lord and my Saviour (Matt. 16:17, Gal. 1:15-16). I do not doubt the Word of God I can't doubt it. Before the Holy Spirit awakened me to my lost condition (Eph. 2:1, Lk. 18:10), I was dead to the Word and the Word was dead to me. Let me say this; apart from the awak ening power of the blessed Holy Spirit, the written Word of God to you is no more than an almanac. There is no saving power in the written Word alone, it is only when the Holy Spirit takes the Word and plants it in your heart making you alive that the Word be comes alive to you. MTfes Holy Spirit conviction and you’ll go to Hell just as straight as a martin to his goura. All down through the ages modernists, skeptics, atheists, ,and infidel sci entists have hammered against the verbally in spired Word of God. Well, I never argue with those who don’t believe the Word of God. Not long ago I was listening to the radio and heard a preacher and two atheists debating. Friend, I never debate the Word of God with any man! It’s not debatable. Believe it and be saved and disbelieve it and be damned! The Word of God win be true when you are burning foTHelE When my brother and his wife were here some years ago I told them; “Tlje Bible was written for one person, and one person only, the child of God.” Tjyv h*H never heard that before. You may laugh at the Word, but my heavenly Father shall have the last J.M. Little lanoh /Do m ... __ .... My subject at this time is; “God's Division." But I just wanted to give you that as an introduction and let you know where I stand. In Gen. 1:1 “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” When God first created the earth man was not made by God and placed on it then. But there was a pre-adamic race on the earth. But after God made Adam and Eve He told them, “...be fruitful, and multiply, and RE PLENISH the earth. ..” -CVs. 28). The word “re plenish" means to resupply or restock. This is how 1 know there was a pre adamic race in the first creation in Gen. 1:1. Just how long that pre-adamic race existed on the earth before the great calamity of Gen. 1:2 I don't know because the Bible doesn’t say. Look at Verse 2; “And the earth was without form, and void; and dark ness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.” When God first created the earth He didn’t make it without form and void, no! But a great calamity took place that threw the earth into de struction and left it >r<Jld" ~ and in darkness. In this first chapter of Genesis we see the restoration of the earth. Particularly, I caM your attention to Verse 9; “And God said, Let the waters underthe heaven be gathered unto ONE PLACE, and let DRY LAND APPEAR: and it au. nuw, nere in Verse 9 all the water on the face of the earth is in one place and all the dry is in one place. Now you ask; how then did the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian and other oceans and the continents come about? Alright, you let God's Word speak for itself. In Gen. 10;25 we find in God’s Word the answer to your question; "And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg FOR IN HIS DAY WAS THE EARTH DIVIDED; and his brother’s name was Joktan.” Sometime during Peleg’s lifetime, God split the land mass, making the different bodies of water and continents and islands. When God divided the earth, different people were separated on these particular land areas. That is why Columbus found the Indians here in the West when he came to what is now called the Americas. God’s dividing the earth and the people was one of His ways of restrainingthe wickedness of man. If you will take your atlas and look closely for just a few minutes you can see- that the. different .continents would fit almost like a puzzle. In studying the dis persal in Genesis 10, you can see that Shem’s des cendants went eastward, and they are the Yellow people of the earth, Ham's descendants went south ward, they are the Black and darker people of the earth, and Japeth's des cendants went northward, they are the White people of the earth. The name Japeth means enlarged, Ham means hot, and Shem means renown. In I Chronicles 19 we are told again; “And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg; because in his days the earth was divided: and his brother’s name was Joktan.” The name Peleg means; spiit, divided, or channel of water. So this was God’s Division of the land mass and the different people of the earth. Get this; there is no such thing as a superior or inferior race, all men by nature are the same totally depraved beings that are hell-born, hell-deserving, and hell hound, and go to Hell you shall unless you repent and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and your saviour.
