Romans 5:14-17 14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those who had not sinned in the likeness of the offense of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come. 15 But the free gift is not like the transgression. For if by the transgression of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many. 16 The gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned; for on the one hand the judgment arose from one transgression resulting in condemnation, but on the other hand the free gift arose from many transgressions resulting in justification. 17 For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.

Graceful Now I'm not denying that everyone since the fall has died except Enoch and Elijah nor do I deny that everyone that died before Christ did in fact go to Hades. The point I'm contesting is that the curse issued a physical death sentence. It did not in itself. The results may be death but the curse itself did not carry a pronouncement of physical death. Many have come to believe that it did but misconception comes from our focus on the physical rather than the spiritual. God and Jesus both tried to get our eyes off our physical situation and focus on the spiritual situation. Jesus said don't worry about what can kill the body worry about what can kill the spirit. He said don't worry about you clothes, you food, you wealth seek first the kingdom and everything else will be handled. If death was required then the hope of the church “the rapture” would be a violation of it. However since physical death is never mentioned in the curse God violates nothing He has said or willed by taking Enoch and Elijah to heaven. EdB |
