The Last Adam

Two men, two trees, two destinies for the human race.

1. 1

   The first Adam, in God's image

   Genesis 1:27

   God created man in his own image. In God’s image he created him; male and female he created them.

   Humanity made to represent God.
2. 2

   The fall

   Genesis 3:6

   When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took some of its fruit, and ate; and she gave some to her husband with her, and he ate it, too.

   Adam's disobedience brings sin and death.
3. 3

   One man's obedience

   Romans 5:19

   For as through the one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one, many will be made righteous.

   "By the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous."
4. 4

   In Christ all made alive

   1 Corinthians 15:22

   For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.

   "As in Adam all die, so in Christ shall all be made alive."
5. 5

   A life-giving spirit

   1 Corinthians 15:45

   So also it is written, “The first man, Adam, became a living soul.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

   "The last Adam became a life-giving spirit."
