Bible Question (short): How many humans created? |
Question (full): This is off-topic, but one of your statements brings up an interesting question that I have had. You wrote: "Adam and Eve are the only two humans EVER to be created." My question is, Do you consider the conception of our Lord Jesus in the womb of Mary to be another instance of the creation of a human. God the Son was pre-existent of course, but His "earthly tent" wasn't. I myself lean toward the idea that God supernaturally created a new human zygote "ex nihilo", which would make him the Second Adam in a very real sense. It would also deal with the question of how Christ in his humanity would have no "original sin," since he would not be the genetic descendent of Mary (if, indeed, the physical body plays any role in the transmission of the curse at all). Just idle speculation, of course. What do you think? --Joe! |
