DEDICATION

This book is dedicated to the precious children of the world,
who all need to hear the wonderful truths from Gods Holy Word.

efore we get started on the true account of human history, look up the following verses in the
Bible. This will help you understand that the Bible really is very special. It is the Word of God,
who always tells the truth, and who has always existed. Studying Gods Word is the only way we
will know the truth about the history of the universe and mankind.

Bible verses: 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Peter 1:1921; 2 Timothy 3:1416;
Psalm 119:160; Proverbs 30:56; Hebrews 4:12; 2 Timothy 2:15.

Here is a verse from the Bible it is good for everyone to learn:

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof,
for correction, for instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16).

his book has been written to instruct readers about the historical account of the first two people, Adam
and Eve, and to teach them to think with a Christian worldview that is rooted in the Bible. Adam shows up
numerous times in both in the Old and New Testaments. Yet some today try to tell us that Adam was not a
real person and despite even Jesus and Paul referring to him, that Adam could not have been real, created by
God, and lived in the Garden of Eden as the Bible tells us he did.

Some people also say that the six days of Creation were not ordinary days as we know them, but were long
periods of time. When you read Genesis chapter 1, you will see that the word day is used with evening,
morning, and a number for each of the six days. This means they must have been ordinary days as we
know them. They were not long periods or millions of years. The seven-day week that people accept is
based upon the days of Gods creation!

You will learn that Christianity is based in real history, and that the Bible is not only a book about salvation,
but is the history book of the universe. It is the only 100 percent accurate history book in the world! Using the
Bible, we can learn about the past and also the future. The more you understand about the Bible, the more
you will be able to understand and defend the Gods truth.

ave you ever imagined what it would be like if you could see the world after God first created it about
6,000 years ago? What would we see? We cant go back to that timebut the Creator of the universe made
sure that all the most important events of history were recorded in a special series of books that together make
up one book, called the Holy Bible.

One question people often ask is, Where did humans come from? Welllets start at the beginning to find the
answer! The Bible starts with a book called Genesis, which means beginning. Thats why God put that book
first. When you read a book, you start at the beginning so you understand the rest of the book.

The first verse in Genesis states that God created the heaven and the earth. God has always existed (no
one made God, for He made everything). God tells us in this first verse that He made time (beginning), space
(heaven), and matter (earth). This was the beginning of our universe, all part of the first day in time.

As you read the first chapter of Genesis, you discover that God gives us a summary of what happened on each
of the six days of Creation:

Day 1: time, space, earth, water, light;
Day 2: preparing the expanse around the earth;
Day 3: the dry land appeared and God made the plants;
Day 4: God created the sun, moon, and stars;
Day 5: God created the sea creatures and the flying creatures;
Day 6: God created the land animals and the first two people.

he Creation account is also part of Genesis chapter 2 and is a detailed account of what happened on
the sixth dayparticularly related to the creation of Adam and Eve.

Now, lets take a closer look at what God did on the sixth day. First, God spoke and all the land
animals came into being, each according to its kind, which would have included dinosaurs. Pleased with
everything that was made, God stated twice that it was good. He blessed the animals and told them to
be fruitful and multiply, giving them wondrous plants and trees with fruit to eat.

God also planted a garden called Eden. Within the garden, God planted two special
trees the Tree of Life and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

Then He made the first man from the dust of the earth, breathing life into him so
he became a living being. This man, Adam, was placed in the Garden of Eden to care for
it and to keep it. As a test of obedience the Lord gave Adam every tree to eat fruit from, except for
one: the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Adam was warned that he would die if he ate of
that one tree.

hy the rule about this particular tree? God didnt make Adam to be like a puppetHe wanted
Adam to love His Creator because he wanted to, not because he was forced to. Thats why Adam was
