As people read the Bible, they gloss over what seems trivial or at least not significant. Every word in the Bible is divinely inspired and taken to be the very words of God.
Matthew chapter one is the
beginning of a “last chance.” God tried everything to win the hearts of fallen
men and this would be His last. As such, the gospels could be subtitled, “The
Last Hope.” Just as the ark of Noah was the beginning of a second chance and
the Ark of God a third chance, Mary, as the Ark that carried God, is the last
chance.
In other words, God had a
purpose. He had come down in many forms: the Voice in the garden, a man who
wrestled with Jacob, a burning bush, a cloud by day and the fire by night, and
the “Angel of God” in spiritual, or glorious, flesh.
The New Testament is the Last
Covenant and the Old Testament with its many Covenants would be probated as the
Last Will and Testament of God, but first, God must be made man to inherit the
landed estate that He made in the beginning.
Now, consider the following passage:
23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. 24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: 25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus. (Mat 1:23-25)
Note what Eve said in the
beginning: “I have gotten a man from the Lord” (Gen 4:1). Mary brought forth a
son whereas Eve herself got the man as if she had done a miracle! The focus of Matthew
was on God, but in Genesis, on Eve.
Mary brought forth the Son
of God to correct the sin of Eve who caused the son of the Wicked One, Cain (1
John 3:12).
Whereas Mary brought forth God in
glorious flesh, Eve had delivered “Lucifer” in corrupt flesh. The mistake of
Eve would be corrected, and Mary would deliver new genetics to make mankind
humane, or upright, again.
Eve had been engendered from
below and Cain was delivered, but Mary was literally engendered from above,
translated wrongfully perhaps, “born again” (John 3:7). So, just as Jesus was
engendered from God above in the manner of Adam, mankind could be engendered
from above in the manner of Eve who was the “mother of all living” (Gen 3:20).
It is to be noted that Mary’s
experience was spiritual, and that Eve’s was likely by carnal knowledge. Therefore,
Mary was not immaculately conceived but a clean “vessel” just as Eve was the
dirty vessel for Cain; dirty in the sense that she had sinned.
So, Eve made Cain who was essentially,
in comparison, the “son of Satan,” but much later, Mary brought forth without
her doing anything, the “Son of God.”
Cain as the son of the Wicked One
and Eve, who was the mother of all, caused a degeneracy. No longer was mankind
upright and not even “man,” but a subspecies of another kind. As such, since “all
have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Rom 3:23), then the species of
man is less than the glory in which God created Adam in the first place. The
glory was replaced with “iniquity” (Psalm 51:5) which is depravity.
We think of ourselves as “human
beings” — upright beings. Uprightness can perhaps be taken two
ways: morally like God and standing upright like Jesus would on
the Cross. [1]
Mary brought forth (carried) the
second upright man, the “last Adam” (1 Cor 15:45). Jesus was delivered to the
world upright in form and Spirit for He was the first without sin who lived.
(Perhaps Abel was without sin, but the son of Satan, Cain, killed him). There
is another example where Cain’s and Abel’s contest is glossed over.
It may be that Eve birthed Satan,
having the Spirit of Lucifer, called the “Serpent;” Eve claimed to have created
him in the flesh. (Chew on that hypothesis awhile.) Cain was not of Adam or
scripture would have said so. However, Jesus was of God because scripture does
say so!
The angel said to Mary, you “shall
bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being
interpreted is, ‘God with us.’”
Tikto (“bring forth”) is
literally “produce” from the seed of God. Mary did not contribute by things
that she did to provide the substance of Jesus; God did it all. Contrast that
with Eve who took entire credit for Cain (Gen 4:1).
God planted a “Seed” from Himself
into the side of Eve, just as He did in the beginning with Adam (“waters” in
the creation story is the very “Semen” of God.) Since Adam and Jesus were made
glorious and neither were a result of carnality, then both were clean beings.
(Jesus, like Adam, was tempted, but contrary to Adam, Jesus prevailed over
temptation and was without sin.)
Adam was “the image of God” and
was perfect (Gen 1:31). Jesus was the “last Adam,” and also the Image of God
and He too was made perfect. In other words, “Jesus” — God With Us
(Emmanuel) — is God who came to this realm in the belly of Mary. Jesus was
indeed the “last Adam” because Adam was intended to be as glorious (upright in
stature and nature) like Jesus.
Note that Jesus, being “God with
Us,” is not a just another human being but the very Image of God. Jesus
is not another being but God standing upright in all respects.
Why would God come down? To engender
from above — to regenerate mankind — to do it again as He did in the first
place. Then God breathed life unto Adam and Adam became a “living soul” (gen
2:7). God did that from above. Adam was made alive; he was transformed from an
image to a living being.
Regeneration is the same event; the
material substance of Jesus came from the side of Mary but the Spiritual substance
from the Breath of God. God was with them in the beginning as the Word (John
1:1) and God was with us in Mary. God had done the same thing the second time,
or maybe even after many previous times: with Noah, with Abraham, with Moses,
and such. All but Jesus sinned, and that would not be sufficient, so God came
down Himself to rebirth mankind.
Jesus came to die, and it was God
who came. Jesus was the physical substance of God, the Father with the Seed,
and then the third substance was added at the baptism of Jesus — the Holy Ghost
of Jesus came down unto Him in bodily shape (Luke 3:22).
Not to get ahead of the story,
but it was more than the Person of God — Jesus — that suffered death on
the Cross, but all the substances of God. More on that much later.
The birth of Jesus is Adoil coming down again for Arkhas to become undone a second time.
God became undone in the same
manner as Arkhas came undone in the Book of Enoch. [2]

Herrin’s theory of evolution is devolution; that Adam was created
upright both spiritually and physically but that Cain, the product of Satan, may
have been both spiritually declined and stooped over like the Beast that he had
become. Performing as usual, God made man upright again in stature and now
offers the possibility of uprightness spiritually with a new birth.
