Were Adam and Eve the first two people on Earth?

Or did God made Adam and Eve and other first people?

Where did Cain meet his wife? If he didn't have a sister to mate?
God made more people?
 
I believe that Jesus came first then God created people
 
The Biblical creation story is not literally accurate, so no, Adam and Eve were not the first people within the scope of my theology.

Yes.

God created Adam from the dust of the earth. Then, God made Eve from Adam's rib. Then, Adam and Eve had children, the natural way.

Cain's wife was either his sister or niece.

God didn't create any other people.

Genesis 1
1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Genesis 2
7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

21 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; 22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. 23 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.

Jesus is also called "The Word". Jesus is God the Creator.

John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

I agree with what Reba answered.
 
Even if God created us through evolution, it seems there would've had to be a first man and a first woman to be given the kind of souls and knowledge of God that we associate with our kind of humanity. It doesn't seem unreasonable that their stories would be passed down, and that we would remember them as Adam and Eve.
 
God came first and he had jesus...created the world and Adam and Eve were the first people on earth, then people came along etc...

Yep, incest. Adam and Eve had sex with their kids and their kids had sex with each other as well. ;)

Incest? No law in their lifetime.
 
Sure there was. You claim that God's will, God's laws, God's wishes for us have never changed. Therefore, none of this "there weren't any laws in their lifetime."

Bottom line is this: According to the Bible, Able and Cain were the first two children on Earth. There was no mention of any other children from Adam and Eve at the time of Cain's banishment.

Cain was banished from Adam and Eve for killing Able. Somehow, he walked into his wife. That means there had to be a whole 'nother group of people out there besides Adam and Eve.
 
There is ABSOLUTELY NO PROOF that Adam and Eve existed. There is NO proof that creation occurred. There is NOTHING scientific about the Creation.

Only fools believe in Creationism, just like many fools believed that the Earth was flat.

Big time wrong. And no, creationism does not believe the world is flat. And not only that, there are different groups og creationism of their veiws just like humanist and scientists has there different views. All I see, you have been timidating and insult against creationism. I'll stick in fact and Truth who God is.

I didn't say Creationists believe in flat earth, I said that they're just as foolish as people who believed in flat earth. Creationists are like Flat Earth believers - they don't care about science or facts, they just believe it's flat based their Bible says so.

I insult creationists because they're DEAD WRONG... 100% WRONG AT EVERY TURN. If you think such an event occurred, you're an idiot. What more can I say? You make that stupid ignorant choice based on lack of scientific evidence.

The simple truth is you have no fact to support your belief and your truth is subjective.
 
I imagine that other people not mentioned in the Bible were brought to consciousness so that they could be consenting mates. That is, others would've been born to pre-humans who had our kind of minds and souls. I think that's a perfectly feasible solution and there's no reason why God couldn't have done that, especially since that would be a better way to ensure genetic stability in His new creation.
