What Jesus Said About Adam and Eve

[davetaff]

Hi David
Thank you for your post but I think we will find that Adam and Eve were real people and the first Adam was created in the same way as the last Adam Jesus Christ he was a whole multitude that's why God had to destroy the world with a flood to destroy the first body of Adam

The meaning of Adam and Eves name. Means first man and first woman.
I believe that the names show us they were real figures. Figures who had Gods own breath breathed into them to give them life.
{the passage in the bible brought about the kiss of life idea Resuscitation ,)

Eve is the mother of mankind and Adam the Father. It is the true account of God creating us.
Mankind refers to men and women. Because woman was taken from man.

As you go through the bible we see that the woman is the one chosen to be the line of the Abrahams line and all mankind.
He chose Sara/Sarah to be the mother so discounting the first child born to a slave girl his Abrams Ishmael. Abraham had a son called Isaac who
was the chosen Son through the mother. As Jesus, like Adam chosen by the Will of God through Mary/ Both Adam and Jesus was born by the
will of God and no man involved.

Do you think there was a higher reason for this.... Jesus to be the second Adam had to be born without sin of the flesh.
So like Adam created by the will of God.

John 1.13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

So Jesus and believers in him are born of the will of God. Nothing to do with the will of flesh.
The second covenant was not like the first covenant. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them. This outpouring of the spirit among all believers is specifically noted as being fulfilled in the new covenant, not as part of previous covenants (Acts 2, Joel 2:28-29).


I have learned this with the help of God, and it has been over the years of being taught by the LORD. Please forgive my use of capitals for Lord but when in the bible the capital shows reference to God. So when writing in capitals referring to God not Jesus.

Hi Davetaff,

I might appear a little thick but unsure what you mean when you say Jesus was a whole multitude that's why God had to destroy the world?
In Gods word he makes it clear the New Covenant would be nothing like the Old Covenant with Moses.
He tells the people that another will come, like unto Moses and he God) will put his words in his mouth. That the New Adam who is Jesus , will tell us all we need to know and that these are people born of Spirit and Truth. Abraham believed what God said to him and God accounted this to righteousness toward him. So those who believe what Christ has said are righteous in the eyes of God.
John 3:16. Faith pleases God the most. God regretted killing these people by flood. But he saved the righteous. He made the bow and promised not to flood the earth and kill them again. The water saving the righteous.

Why did you believe God had to destroy the multitude? The new covenant is not about the old covenant.

Hi mystery Girl
Thank you for your post all I'm saying is the first and last Adam would be created in the same way the last Adam Jesus Christ was created he being the head his body comprised of a whole multitude of believers which he would present to the Father on his return.
The first Adam would be created in the same way Adam would be the head his Eve those chosen to be his bride and and all their children a whole multitude.

The problem is the church has been teaching that Adam was jest one man and Eve one woman which makes no sense when we read what Gods word says

Gen 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth

It says in our likeness in our image indicating more than one the word man should be understood as mankind

Love and Peace

But it dose mention the bride of Christ

Rev 21:9 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife.

Rev 21:10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,

Love and Peace

I hear Christians talking about Adam and Eve.
What did Jesus say about Adam and Eve?
“Adam” is not mentioned in the Gospels.
“Eve” is not mentioned in the Gospels.
The “Garden of Eden” is not mentioned in the Gospels.

Doesn’t this suggest that the Adam and Eve story is less important than many Christians think it is?

Jesus did mention them in passing when advising on divorce saying from the beginning it was not so.

Also Adam is mentioned in the Luke genealogy as "the son of God."

Since faith that Jesus is the son of God is central to salvation, the identity of Adam really does matter.

The underlying theme of Jesus starting a new humanity through his royal bloodline would have no context without Adam being a real person.

Jesus being described as the last Adam in scripture also implies that the identity of Adam and Eve is a foundational concept tied to the identity of Jesus.

So for the above and other reasons, the story of Adam and Eve is really important.
