RE: The evolution of Adam - Who is Adam

in #religion7 years ago

@gavvet i am always very happy reading your post. if you will permit me, i will like to state somethings. the story of Adam and Eve should NOT be taking as a physical story so that we can understand spiritual reality.

Adam comments in verse 23 "This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh" relates much more than just a statement. have at th back of your mind that Adam (man) is the first man while Jesus is the last Adam so you will understand that there must be similarities between this two.

why the absence of blood?
Adam was made to sleep and a rib was taken from his side which simply means there was an extraction which will not be posible witout blood coming out if it were a surgery right? this extraction birthed out his Eve (woman).
Jesus appeared to the disciples and Luke24:39 made the same claim of flesh and bone. this is after the cross and the piecing of his side at the cross which equally birthed His Eve (Church).

Yes, at an early stage in life, childhood, we are not conscious of the things around us or how naked we are. the Christ conscious man is supposed to live in the reality of a child where he has no knowledge of right or wrong. this is because it is not for man to consider what is right or wrong, but to just follow Christ. Children dont know when they are dressed or naked in terms of walking around the compound it is the parents who worry about that. they work peacefully in whatever position and have access to everything the parent has.

If Adam had parent?
The Bible made it clear that Adam was the first man made in the likeness of God so if he had a parent they would have existed before him and that is not the case. but the writing of Genesis made the statment that a man will live his father and mother... to me, this means his root, origin and beliefs so that he can cleave to his wife. surprising, when Adam obeyed Eve instead of God's command, he left for his wife and cleaved to his wife and both of them were sent out of Eden. In Jesus' case, he left His glory to birth His wife (Church) and cleave to her.

If we followed closely, we will understand that Christ, the last Adam came to write the wrongs of the first Adam and there are similar things that placed out on both.
thanks for your post @gavvet. i am always glad reading it

Very valid point that you are making about Adam being the foreshadow of Jesus.
