Subject: Who was the first perfect man |
Bible Note: I think you have Elisha and Elijah mixed up. Their names do sound a lot alike. Elisha did die. 2 Kings 13:20,21 A dead man was thrown into his sepulchre and when he touched the bones of Elisha the man revived. Elijah was translated in a chariot of fire and Elisha saw it. Both of these happened before the birth of Christ. I see where you are comming from. If you are saying that there has only been one man in all of the history of the Earth that was without sin, perfect and without spot then I would have to say that there was one. And God was made flesh and dwelt among us. And He offered up His life as a ransom for many. He was hung on a tree or cross as most call it, pierced in His hands and feet,but it wasn't the nails that kept him there. It was his love for His children that kept Him there. The name of this Loving, merciful,longsuffering man was Jesus Christ who is our lord and savior,Amen. |
