Thou shalt not kill
Genesis 4: 13 And Cain said unto the Lord, My punishment is greater than I can bear.
14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.
15 And the Lord said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.
23 And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
24 If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.
Cp 9: 3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.
5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man.
6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.
I wish to show you a great mystery which I have never heard anyone else explain. But God reveals these things to me seeing that I have sought his truth all my life and spent much of my life diligently studying his Word.
God said Vengeance is mine; I will repay. But first the mercy of God requires that He give people ample time to repent in. God gives us all space to repent in. If you do not repent, HE will take vengeance on you. But HE requires us not to usurp his authority and try to take vengeance, no matter what someone does to you.
God set a mark on Cain so no one else would attempt to kill him and take vengeance for the death of Able. God set a punishment upon anyone who attempts to be the avenger of blood.
This actually means that for any murder, seven more will be murdered. Now watch that multiply: Lamech said, if Cain be avenged seven fold Lamech will be avenged SEVENTY-SEVEN FOLD.
So he was showing here that for every murder it would cause seventy-seven fold more to be murdered, or violence would increase so rapidly that it would become more than the world could bear.
Each time vengeance is taken by man, for a murder, instead of waiting on God to do the avenging, many many more would be killed in more vengeance. Soon the world would be overrun with murder and violence, as it was at the time of the flood and as it is now.
Not only that but God did not want them killing animals. He has allowed men to have their own way in this world even though this means evil is rampant because of it. Men will pay for disobeying God’s ways.
They wanted to kill and eat animals, so after the flood God said now you can do it, but for every animal or person you kill I will require your blood for it.
So now, it is easy to see why the world is so full of bloodshed. For every murder it increases by 77 times or many more. I do not know how to figure it but this is easy to see.
Those 77 will increase 77 more X 77 more and for each animal’s blood that they shed it will cause them to also lose their lives.
This is very serious business. Wars and more Wars brought on due to men’s lust for control, dominion and money, has caused the world to be so full of loss of lives till it is truly doomed to destruction very soon.
