The Triune God, Adam, and Us (5 of 5)

As Christian though we believe God has something to say about WHO YOU ARE. - We have a Creator and we are DESIGNED by Him. - We don't merely exist for ourselves.

This text introduces the generations that would follow Adam. It reminds us that man was created in God's image. Then in verse 3 it tells us Adam fathered a son in hi ...
