5 2 Adam had sex with Eve, and she had many sons and daughters who filled the earth. 3 And the sons and daughters of Adam had sons and daughters.
6 After many days, an angel appeared to Adam, saying, "Why do you sacrifice animals to God?" Adam said, "I don't know. But God told me to."
7 The angel said, “God wants you to sacrifice animals because someday God is going to sacrifice his Only Begotten to himself. 8 Whatever you do, do it in the name of the Son, and call on the name of the Son forever.”
9 On that day, the Holy Ghost fell on Adam and said, "I'm the Only Begotten."
12 Adam and Eve told their sons and daughters about everything.
13 But Satan said to them, "Don't believe it." And they didn't believe. And they loved Satan more than God. From that time on men became carnal, sensual, and devilish.
14 The Holy Ghost commanded everyone to repent. 15 Those who believed in the Son and repented were saved. Those who didn't were damned.
16 Adam and Eve had sex again and Eve had a son named Cain. Cain's first words were, "Who is God? How could I know him."
17 Eve had another boy whose name was Abel. He obeyed God.
18 Cain loved Satan more than God. Satan said to Cain, "Make an offering to God."
19 Cain offered some fruit to God.
20 Abel offered God the firstlings of his flock, along with the fat. God liked Abel's offering. 21 But God didn't like Cain's offering. This made Satan happy.
22 God said to Cain,
23 Satan wants you. Unless you obey me, I'll give you to him.
24 From now on you [Cain] will be the father of lies and will be called "Perdition" - that's what you were before the world began.
25 Future abominations will be blamed on Cain.
26 Cain didn't listen any more to God, or to his brother Abel.
28 Cain married his brother's daughter, and they both loved Satan more than God.
29 Satan said to Cain, "Swear to me by your throat. If you tell anyone, you will die."
30 And Satan swore to Cain that he would obey him.
31 Cain said, "I am Mahan." So Cain was called Master Mahan.
33 Cain gloried in what he had done, saying, "Now I'm free, and Abel's flocks are mine."
41 Cain went with his wife and many of his brothers to the land of Nod, east of Eden.
43 Lamech made a deal with Satan that was like that of Cain. He became Master Mahan, the master of Satan's great secret. Irad, Enoch's son revealed the secret deal with Satan to others, so Lamech was angry and killed him.
51 From the days of Cain, there was a secret combination. 52 So God curse Lamech, his family, and everyone who had covenatated with Satan. 55 And in this way the works of darkness spread among the sons of men. 56 So God cursed the earth with a sore curse, and he was angry will all the humans that he had made. 57 Because they wouldn't obey him or believe in his Only Begotten Son.
6 1 Adam told his sons to repent. 2 Then he had sex with his wife again, and she had a son name Seth. 3 God revealed himself to Seth, who didn't rebel but offered an animal sacrifice to God.
5 A book was written in the language of Adam, which was pure and undefiled. 7 And there was also a priesthood, the same one that was from the beginning of the world and will last until the then of the world.
8 Adam prophesied by the Holy Ghost and genealogies were kept.
9 God created humans, male and female, in the image of his own body, and called their name Adam.
15 In those days Satan controlled everyone on earth. There were wars because of secret works.
26 Enoch traveled through the land with the Spirit of God residing on him.
27 He heard a voice say, "Enoch, prophesy, and say”
The Lord says he's angry with you.
29 You're going to die and go to hell if you don't repent.
31 Enoch said to the Lord,
Why do you like me so much?
I'm just a boy and everyone hates me.
32 The Lord said,
Just open your mouth and it'll be filled.
All flesh is in my hands to do with as I please.
34 Mountains will run away from you, and rivers change their course.
35 Wash your eyes with clay and you'll see.
And Enoch washed his eyes with clay. 36 Then Enoch saw things that the eye can't see.
46 Enoch said, “A book of remembrance was written with the help of God's finger, written in our own language.”
48-49 He told the people, “Satan tempts you to worship him and to become carnal, sensual, and devilish.”
51 God said to Adam,
I am God. I made men before they were flesh. 52 Believe in Jesus Christ and receive the Holy Ghost.
57 In the language of Adam, God's name is Man or Holiness. And the name of his only begotten is the Son of Man or Jesus Christ.
59 You must be born again and cleansed with the blood of my Only Begotten. 62 This is the plan of salvation: All men are saved by the blood of my Only Begotten, who will come in the meridian of time.
64-68 After God finished speaking, Adam was carried by the spirit of the Lord to water, where he was dunked under the water and then brought up again. And in this way, Adam was baptized and became a son of God.
