Neanderthals, as well as many other hominids are a created being (NOT HUMAN) that went extinct many years ago. NOONE has suggested that Jesus was\nor became a Neanderthal. Only Humans were created in GODS image and it was humans who sinned and are thus in need of salvation.
Is it possible Cain's "wife" was a Neanderthal?

Did Angels Interbreed With Women to Produce Giants?
Some have taught that a set of scriptures in Genesis 6 refers to fallen angels interbreeding with human women to produce half-demon giants. But there’s a more rational explanation.

So are you saying Adam did not introduce sin/death into the created order? Death was here previous to Adam's sin?
(Rom 5:12) Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned—
Please note what you just quoted that death passed to all men. Are you suggesting that the dinosaurs didn't die before man arrived? Could an ant have been stepped on by a larger animal? There is nothing to suggest that the animals ate from the tree of life.
This can go either way, but I'd appreciate it if you would first answer my question...

One indication of there being no death before Adam's transgression is...
(Rom 8:20) For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it, in hope
(Rom 8:21) that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God.
(Rom 8:22) For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now.
(Rom 8:23) And not only this, but also we ourselves, having the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our body.
Adam did indeed sin and as a result death entered into the world for all mankind as all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of GOD. Again speaking of men ,as I don't believe animals sin in doing what they are created to do. Entropy has always existed it is the 2nd law of thermodynamics and applies to all of creation. Man was only immortal by eating from the tree of life. Animals did not eat from said tree.
Well, after all that we won't know because there aren't any neanderthals around anymore.
I do think it's possible God pulled a rib out of Cain and Seth to make wives for them though. Notice the Bible says 'daughters of men' rather than 'daughters of Eve'.
After there were enough of them I'm supposing they married each other and had sons and daughters, though it doesn't say the brothers and sisters of the same parents married each other.
It says the sons of God saw the daughters of men, saw they were fair, and took wives of them of all they chose.
Notice, Bible does not say 'the sons of God saw the daughters of neanderthals'.

As per the word NEANDERTHALS and CRETIANS, the words exist to call others names by.................you cretin you cut me off. My friend is a Neanderthal, he is so oblivious.................lol
The animal kingdom was put under Adam's rule, so as the king fell, so did his kingdom...
(Gen 1:26) Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."
I agree with the fact the " sons of God "were mere men not some supernatural being.
Some genetic combos just breed taller ppl and there are genetic diseases that cause overgrowth as well.
It is when every little thing has got to MAKE SENSE to us that man becomes a heretic.
We cannot possess the all knowing knowledge of God except he allows us. Furthermore to much" learning" makes some " mad " as Festus said........lol
Well, I'm not too sure about taking my cues from Festus, but I agree, when we replace Scripture with speculation, AND get dogmatic about it, then we are treading on heretical grounds.
Correct.
Please remember Matthew 22:30.......
"At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven."
Demons and Angels are "spiritual beings" and can not reproduce. Therefore it is impossible for demons to have been involved in sexual relations with the daughters of men.

And that is exactly what I said!!!
First........it can not refer to demons are those "Sons of God" might lead one to think.
LOCATION and CONTEXT always determines the meaning. "Sons of God" as seen in Job 1 says that the "Sons of God" came to God and Satan came with them". LOCATION says that that meeting had to be in heaven because that is where God is.
So then.....there were NO humans in heaven then which means the "Sons of God" in Job 1 refers to the Angels in HEAVEN.
Then in Genesis 6, the phrase "Sons of Dod" meaning is determined by LOCATION which was on the Earth. CONTEXT says that MEN had become so sinful that God had to destroy them.
I do not accept the word "evolved" But I would suggest the word "Adapted".
John 3:16........
"For God so loved the WORLD..........."!
Does that have a time frame?
It seems to me that If Christ did not die for Neanderthals, that cannot be because his sacrifice on the cross was not powerful enough to take them into account. Aquinas took the view that Christ's human death had an infinite, superabundant value; it was the death of a divine person. Christ's death must therefore be sufficient to deal with any and every sin.
Gee, is that Festus Haggen? lol
So Neanderthals ‘adapted’ from tadpoles?
Either way, I’m not buying it.
I understand your position. However, that is really not the bottom line question is it????
The real question must be......was there a race of people called Neanderthals who lived about 500 K years ago and went extint?
By the way, recent DNA genome tests show that some of us have inherited around 2% Neanderthal DNA.

No, it is Festus HAGIN!
As a young earther, that would not be a real question either.
