AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 15:45 So it is written [in Scripture], "The first MAN, Adam, BECAME A LIVING SOUL (an individual);" the last Adam (Christ) became a life-giving spirit [restoring the dead to life]. [Gen 2:7] |
Subject: the last Adam |
Bible Note: Greetings Alex! One thing to consider: If God had created Adam as 'immortal' or perfect, then why would God have included the tree of life (Gen. 2:9) in the garden? Why would man need to eat of the tree of life if he was already immortal? And why would God include death as a consequence (Gen. 2:17) of disobedience if man was already immortal?
