Hey you guys, now I just wanted to try something different and try this riddle on you based on the Bible… I’m curious as to whether anyone will get it since it took me five days to get the answer…. if you know what it is, just put it in the comment section and I’ll let you know if it is right… and if you enjoyed the riddle a lot, go send it to a friend that might get stumped…. this is my daily dose of spreading the Word =)

God made Adam out of the dust, but thought it best to make me first. So I was made before the man, according to God’s Holy plan.
My ways and acts did God control, but in my body He placed no soul. A living being I became and Adam gave to me a name. Then from his presence I withdrew, for this man Adam I never knew.
All my Maker’s laws I do obey, and from these laws I never stray. Thousands of me go in fear, but seldom on the earth appear. Later, for a purpose God did see, He placed a living soul in me.
But that soul of mine God had to claim and from me took it back again. And when this soul from me had fled, I was the same as when first made. Without arms, legs, feet or soul, I travel on from pole to pole.
My labors are from day to night, and to men I once furnished light. Thousands of people both young and old, did by my death bright lights behold. No right or wrong can I conceive, the Bible and it’s teachings I can’t believe.
The fear of death doesn’t trouble me, pure happiness I will never see. And up in Heaven I can’t go, nor in the grave, or Hell below.
So get your Bible and read with care, you’ll find my name recorded there.
The answer is one word, five letters long, and appears only four times in the King James version of the Bible.
