Some theoretical PFALists suggest Adam and Eve were on a tight budget: Eve couldn’t afford a wedding gown. Adam couldn’t afford a tux. They saved money by nixing the church for a Garden Wedding. Adam, being a do-it-yourselfer, officiated the ceremony himself. Eve so wanted a traditional wedding, so they settled on having the bride’s father walk her down the aisle. They cheaped out on wedding reception centerpieces, by hiring a British produce vendor named Sir Pent to provide half-priced fruit bowls. They nixed the fancy double doors for one emergency exit-only door and as fate would have it, they accidentally got locked out of their own Garden Wedding Reception.

T-Bone, that is a hard act to follow! So while Rocky was looking things up and answering his own question (good job ) and T-Bone was composing his very witty reply to Rocky's question (good job too ), I was busy comparing Gen 2 and Eph 5 (with a little help from John 12) because they each had the same verse which I found very interesting How so, you must be wondering . This is how so . Genesis 2:18,21-24 John 12:24 Ephesians 5:28-31 The first Adam Jesus Christ the second Adam - And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. - John 12:23,24 And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified - Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abides alone:… (the corn of wheat = Jesus) - And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: - and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; but if it die,… - And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. (woman + man = fruit/children) - it brings forth much fruit. - And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. (Adam calls Eve of his bones and of his flesh) - So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loves his wife loves himself. - For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, (Men are to love their wives as their own bodies from which Eve/women came) - even as the Lord (nourishes and cherishes) the church: For we are members of his (Jesus Christ's) body, of his flesh, and of his bones. (We, the church, are the firstfruits of Jesus' death mentioned in John 12:24 above. We are also of Jesus' body, flesh and bones as Eve was of Adam's) - therefore shall a man leave his father & his mother and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh - for this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife and they two shall be one flesh In case anyone is by the chart, it all boils down to how Genesis and Ephesians are aligned with each other (with John's help of course). The first Adam plus Eve in Genesis are connected not only to the husbands and wives in Ephesians but also to the second Adam and his church. If you already knew all this then I hope you enjoyed how colorful and organized everything was !

An interesting detail is how some people put snowstorms on gas pumps as related second hand by a hippie conquest chick and banished from the bookstore on the same equality as God’s written Word. Then as a corollary they deify all the guys sermons and written notes publishing them into bound book volumes edited by his secretary. And on top of that they continue to re study a class stolen before they were born. If that in itself isn’t enough they literally make bronze images of the guy and place them in teaching centers and as a gift to all the unquestioning bondslaves they ordain! And they refuse to look honestly at these things or discuss them! These followers are so deluded there is literally nothing God can do to get through the 9 miles of cemented ear wax for them to listen. Unbelievable? Sure is.

Boom! Great news! I MADE IT FIT! After going back to the "keys" and "principles," after standing on victor's shoulders, after imitating how (H-O-W) victor "worked the word," I finally got it! (I didn't absorb it the first time, admittedly.) This required 18 hour work days, but the work was worthy of the hire. Anyone can do it. It's what's available. You've got to know how (H-O-W) to get it. The secret is in the tools ("keys"). The tools are what everybody misses the first time. This is what you will need: 1 Sharpie, 1 multipack of correcting tape or Whiteout, 1 roll of duct tape, 1 Sawzall, and one pair of safety glasses with eisegetical lenses. Now, you take these tools ("keys") and go to work on your Bible, preferably the KJV. Work TF out of it. The Sawzall will make a mess of your Bible, but, hey, that's what the eisegetical glasses are for. That's how (H-O-W) victor did it. Remember, stand on his shoulders and imitate him. When you're done completely completing working the word while on victor's shoulders, you will see the tremendous accuracy of "God's budget." (Use the duct tape to attach the budget to the double doors.) Fruit of the labor: The six THE men of God who came before victor spent all of the miracle/sign/wonder budget. There was nothing left for the seventh THE man of God. That's why signs, miracles and wonders never followed victor. That's why he couldn't manifest. See? Isn't that just wonderful! That there is pure mathematical exactness! That there is scientific precision! Boy, oh, boy.... Mmmmmph!

When you think of it, after all God did to inspire people to write His Word so that we could know Him and his Son, it's not possible that He would not have protected them throughout the millenniums and continue to protect them. A good friend sent me some videos about this topic which I'd like to go back and finish watching.

There ya go. Instead of one original, oldest manuscript we have thousands of manuscripts, which is better as noted in the quote you left T-Bone. Yet, wierwille has convinced people like Mike (and formerly myself) that the only reliable intrepretation is what wierwille says it is. God is perfectly able, capable, and has preserved his pure Word of God for those who want it. Wierwillism overthrows a person's faith in God's ability to effectually communicate himself, leaving them instead with all kinds of doubt as evidenced by mike's post.
