I honestly have no idea if this is true, or even if the question is legitimate. I just find it curious. (1 image)

Bible scholars. What is the answer to this question Where did the people in the Land of Nod come from?

The answer to your ? is quite simple, Cain The bible says And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. 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.

It Never Says "Cain went to live among the people in the land of Nod" The Land of Nod, period. Nothing about people already being in Nod.

Hi, I've been reading 4um for a couple of years now this is my first post. Great place filled with great info from some great people, thanks Christine. The Lord says to watch, this is a great place to do just that.

Some here are "believers" and some are not, and Im ok with that. There is no "great commission" in the bible, so Im not here to convert or debate. Im not a Bible scholar, not a Pastor, I don't even attend the pointy shed clubhouse that passes itself off as church.

The man holding the sign in the picture maybe just in error, just as the "new versions" of scripture written in the last 100 years are. But the bible doesn't say so. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Many warnings, But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.

Don't "believe" what others say, including myself. Search the scripture (KJV) to find out whether those things are so.

But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

You know Lod, the basic things in scripture are really not that hard to understand

Why was the land called Nod

NOD, v. i. [Gr. contracted; a nod; to nod, To incline the head with a quick

Yes, as Paul wrote to Timothy, we are to study to show ourselves approved before God; not to sit in the clubhouse and listen to someone who may, or may not, be rightly dividing the Truth.

But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

Very true Lod, there is nothing in the bible except warning about what passes as the "church"

Its all for the love of money, set up in the way of the old covenant, by works. Every chuuurrrch wants to do something. Save the world, using other peoples money.

But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:

They have no fear of the Lord, a woman pastor, a gay pastor, love everyone, lol Really

As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. God does hate people, lol For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

Your in "church" right now Lod. And where not "doing" a thing
