First Adam verses The Second and Third Adam

THE MIRACLE OF THE NEW CREATION

THE FIRST ADAM, SECOND ADAM AND THE THIRD ADAM

We started the teaching on THE MIRACLE OF THE NEW CREATION  and we looked at THE NECESSITY OF THE NEW CREATION Which was the opening of this series. 

Now let us take a look at the First Adam and the Second and last Adam. The first Adam as we all know is the man God initially created in the garden of Eden who fell because of his disobedience and intentional rebellion to the instructions of God.

So like we know the great God had an eternal plan to bring man up from his fallen state to His own class of being where he could relate with God again for God longs for fellowship unsevered with man. As we know, God tabernacled himself in likeness of man to come to earth as the second and last Adam(man) to redeem mankind from sin.

Worthy of note is the fact that the first Adam had produced a corrupted race of men on the face f the earth and decided the fate and spiritual status of men by his act of wilful disobedience and intentional rebellion to Gods instructions. He had become the progenitor of a fallen race of men with nature of sin and of Satan in their spirits.
Thus it was needful that an obedient second Adam had to come on behalf of humanity to legally redeem man by the law of substitution from his sinful state and beyond that become the progenitor of a new race of beings that have never existed before on the face of the blue marble planet earth. This is the new creation of God.

The bible refers to Jesus not only as the second Adam but also the last because the new creation that He (Christ) will give rise to, will be the ultimate and highest miraculous work of God to ever have happened in the history of humanity. No other race, species, type or special class of beings will ever be seen again. That makes Jesus the second and last Adam to birth this unique race of beings. There will be no more need for yet another Adam. This is because the second and last Adam, Jesus is an obedient servant who will fully please the heart of the Father by carrying to the latter the will of God to be the model for the new creation.

From the scripture we read in 1 Cor. 15: 45-50 everyone who is born according to the first Adam bears the corrupted image of the earthly Adam just like we saw with his two children Cain and Abel. In much the same way, everyone who is also born according to the second and last Adam bears the heavenly image of Christ who is the Lord from heaven.

This is the image and the likeness of the new creation of God modelled by the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. So there are two groups or two races in the mind of God. The race that traces its origin back to the first fallen Adam and the new race that is a generation away from Christ and shares semblance in spirit with only the Son of God Himself and no other.

These two personalities Adam and Jesus, get to decide the fate, the destinies and the spiritual status of men including the kind of image and likeness men would bear whether the nature of God in true holiness and righteousness or the corrupted nature of Adam which was actually the nature of the devil he received after the fall.
