Where did Chain find his wife

The bible is a compressed book, it may not tell every detail of what happened, but will be specific on particular events that God chose to speak of through His people. That's what make this book different from any other book and will be difficult for any person to understand unless that person has the holy spirit.

Also, the years in between the events are not always detailed, but the fact is that in most occasions, there is a big gap of years between the events. This is firstly proved by the number of years ancient people lived then. Some lived up to 830 (Adam to be specific) or more years, and during that period we never hear that they couldn't even see with their eyes nor walk or struggle to walk anymore.

For instance, the book of Genesis alone tells of the events that happened over a 1000 years.
The writer of the book of Genesis, When the bible tells us about the creation of mankind.
We only hear about Adam and Eve, we do not hear about any other human beings being present all around the planet earth. This does not diminish the fact that as big the world is, in every part of this planet, God had placed a human there.
Genesis 1:26. God says: Let us make "mankind" (This single word on it's own refers to more than one person, plural) in our image, in our likeness, so that "they" (plural) may rule.

Now, this gives a very clear indication that it wasn't just Adam that God created, but many human beings. Just as when all kind of creatures and animals were created in multitude and across the planet earth.

When He said "so that they may rule over it". How would one mere human rule over the entire world in it's entirety? Unless you are in that particular environment, you can not have rulership of that place. Just as in this day and age where these countries would colonize African countries, they would have their people there to oversee things and make sure their doctrines and culture is enforced, so is mankind was to rule over the fish, birds and all creatures. 

The bible state the events of creation in an orderly manner, where the planet earth was created before man. Now when man was to occupy and rule, he had to be placed in that environment where he is supposed to occupy and rule. I can not live in Durban and be having dominion and rulership of Italy if I am not there nor have someone who is managing things for me there.

One day when I got back home from work, there was this television program that was on and they were having this discussion about religions. Obviously there will be a debate and dialog about different religions.

Unsurprisingly enough, Christianity will be challenged and questions will posed to try and prove it un-authentic. So I heard at the end of that particular show, one young lady asked a question which commonly in many people's minds.

This blog is meant to address the confusion and the question that is on every new believer and un-believer's minds about where did the other mankind come from, concerning Cain and his wife that He got after he was chased out of the land. "Where did she come from?"

The long a short of the response to that question is that, it wasn't only Adam and Eve whom were on the planet earth, but there were other people whom the bible does not speak of. They were also living on earth same as the two the bible is specifically talking of. Just as the bible refers to "mankind" when speaking of the creation of man, that applies to me and you, we are also mankind.
The fact that God may use one individual to perform miracles and they are recorded, it doesn't diminish the fact that God may use a different person elsewhere to do the same thing but they will not be recorded anywhere.

God is an Omnitient God, He is everywhere at the same time. When He visited mankind in the garden, He did not only visited Adam and Eve, but mankind. What is important that mankind has to learn (especially Christians) is the life of Adam and Eve symbolises our lives and attitude towards God. The number one thing that every child of God should ask God for, is to receive the holy spirit. It is him that will give all understanding regarding His word and life in it's entirety.

Read the bible and meditate on on it. Deuteronomy 8:3 says man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.
