First Adam and Last Adam

Posted on: 23-07-2020


The word Adam in Hebrew means red colour. To understand the term First Adam and Last Adam, we need to understand in biblical perspective the muddle done by the First Adam, its implications for us and then the Restoration plan executed by sacrifice of the Last Adam i.e. Messiah Yeshua to bring us back. 
1.     Let us closely examine the master deception plan of the enemy Lucifer or Satan for the Mankind: Adonai Elohim created man as a living Soul called as Adam which is recorded in Genesis chapter 2. The soul makes up a person’s whole personality (i.e. heart, conscious, mind and emotions). The intellect, thought, ideals, love, emotion, understanding, decision, choice, memory, and other qualities are all associated with the soul. The Bible makes it clear that the soul and spirit are the primary intangible aspects of humanity, while the body is the physical container that holds them while on earth.
Living Soul consists of free emotions based will and choice-based decision making i.e. thinking capacity, to make a choice made between the rational (Balanced) and the emotive (Emotional).

2. Mankind in the garden of Eden enjoyed the authority as provided by Adonai Elohim God as mentioned in Genesis chapter 2 :15, but authority was given with a responsibility i.e. an instruction to mankind in verse 17 and  further authority extended over all living creatures in the Eden Garden as mentioned in verses 19 & 20.  Instruction was not to eat fruit of forbidden tree i.e. Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. The forbidden tree contained the option of experiencing the opposite of what comes from the hand of God, which implied Do not become self-referring point in your life. Man was furnished with every pleasant, nourishing experience God could provide.
3.     Still Serpent the cunning beast, attacked deceptively the free will and choice-based decision making of mankind. Serpent started deception by creating doubt in the human soul by asking question about COMPLIANCE TO OBEDIENCE? Deception was reinforced by Satan through mixing lies with truth that you will not die, rather you will be like God, knowing good and evil.
 God wished to spare Adam from pain and death but at the same time left them freedom of choice for options beyond the sphere of his provision. They ate the fruit of the forbidden tree. They could not resist evil over good. Their eyes were opened when they realized the blunder with arrogance. 
4.     Mankind later tried to come in the presence of God not with repentance but arrogantly showing their futile self-righteousness (covering their nakedness with sewed fig leaves). The anticipation of being like God never materialized for mankind. Adam and Eve's state of existence was not enhanced but was filled with misery and death. Mankind in Garden of Eden if had repented the whole scenario would have been different, but in fact they ran form the presence of living God. Rejection and disobeying the word of God brings curse as evident from the History of Mankind till now. Israel as a nation is the biggest example of this struggle till now as recorded in the Holy Bible. 
Apostle Paul mentioned 1 Corinthians 10:13  No temptation has taken you but what is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but with the temptation also will make a way to escape, so that you may be able to bear it.   Ultimately, they were expelled from the Eden garden to experience what life would be outside God's perfect will. God made for them tunics of skin and he clothed them which means sacrifice of self-righteousness is necessary for atonement of sin.
5.     Mankind need to understand the relevance of provisions which are given by God, there is prophetic destiny for mankind since our creation, failing which will lead us astray. As it is written: Galatians 5:13 Brothers and sisters, you were called to freedom—only do not let your freedom become an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. Although the plan of salvation was decreed by Lord God Elohim in Garden of Eden ( I will put animosity between you and the woman, between your seed and her seed. He will crush your head and you will crush his heel, Genesis 3: 15) manifested through his son Messiah Yeshua, yet the mankind could not understand the deceptive game played by Satan because their soul i.e. mind and heart were corrupted by sin. Sin entered the world.
They could not understand the AGAPE (Unconditional Love) of our Adonai Elohim GOD as mentioned in John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only-begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
6.     The execution of God’s salvation plan for mankind by Lord Yeshua our Messiah exposed and nailed the deceptive game plan of the enemy Satan forever but with only one condition for mankind i.e. to believe in Messiah Yeshua, this is our responsibility in our journey on earth  as is also mentioned  in Ephesians Chapter 6: verse 12 - For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the world's rulers, of the darkness of this age, against spiritual wickedness in high places. The struggle against sin is very real and part of everyday life for a Christian believer. We are in a spiritual battle, yes, it is against Lucifer and 1/3 fallen angles, a multi-dimensional spiritual battle.  Do not grow exhausted in your souls and lose hearts. We can stand on the ground in this battle only when we receive power from might of Holy Spirit in us.
7.     Satan or Lucifer is very shrewd, cunning and master of deception. He has been conquering us again and again through SIN, we are weak and feeble creatures as our SOUL (Mind and Heart) is tarnished. Our soul is corrupted and controlled by Sin, i.e. our mind and hearts are controlled by Luciferian Governance System in a subtle conscious manner. 
This can be very well understood by current social scenario around us, there is systematic disruptive targeted chaos in the globe which is being controlled since the ages by the Luciferian Elite class. They use Mind controlling, hypnotic words are used to control mind of people to control subconscious level of an Individual. These words trigger the hypnotic mode of an Individual for example, in most of the programs on the entertainment industry using specific words like "New Normal, Lockdown in the House" in the corona pandemic. These words are used in screen play used to evoke the mind to be subconsciously accept oneself as victims.
In advertising and television, commercials industry discovered decades ago in commercial by simply adding the word "New" as suffix to the product to describe the same product. As dumb it may sound, that the public responds to hypnotic trigger word "New", resulting in multiplies sales, purchases and interests.  
When we look at most of the Individuals in the society, they are confounded by happening personalized objects and subjective realities, they are imprisoned in deep world of loneliness, lost in cyber space, sense of isolation is common in individuals. If they escape it then, new traps are available which lure individuals such as pornography, violence and suicide.
You have to understand that New Normal is product of Luciferian world to force you accept a lower standard of living every day and accept loss of freedom in your lives. TARGET IS “To get you accept what you did not want to accept”. The primary battle for an Individual is spiritual, which means a daily struggle against SIN.  
Pay attention to what is written in scriptures;
 1 Corinthians 15:45-49  And so it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living soul," the last Adam (Lord Messiah our Yeshua) was a life-giving Spirit.  (46)  But not the spiritual first, but the natural; afterward the spiritual.  (47)  The first man was out of earth, earthy; the second Man was the Lord from Heaven.  (48)  Such the earthy man, such also the earthy ones. And such the heavenly Man, such also the heavenly ones.  (49)  And according as we bore the image of the earthy man, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man.
8.     We as God's people should have vision and understanding of the Holy Spirit in our lives. There is war against body of Christ, time of God’s Grace is running out. To protect ourselves from deception of the enemy, one needs to submits with honest heart and mind so as to get sealed by Holy Spirit in their lives.
Rules, Regulations, Censorship are changing very fast. Do not become an instrument of totalitarian change.  God has given us as believers power to make changes. Understand we are not a victim; we have a prophetic destiny which is to be achieved by travelling on choosing the right road which matches with the word of GOD and walking on teachings of Lord Messiah Yeshua.
9.     IN the Journey push daily to move ahead, living word of God becomes the sword of spirit i.e. Rhema for your life, protecting and delivering you against the schemes of evil. One caution: There should not be famine of Living word of God in your life. New normal is Luciferian Satanic Prison to captured the mankind. The Elite are financing the divisions in the society, the name of game is to divide and conquer. This is promoting huge gaps in sections of the society.
 We need guidance and help of Holy Spirit to fight this spiritual battle against SIN every day in our lives. Only Holy Spirit empowers and equips us with use of the Sword of Spirit. The period of God’s grace is extended by Lord God, as written in 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow concerning His promise, as some count slowness, but is long-suffering toward us, not purposing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
We must understand God’s plan and will for our lives through revelation of Holy Spirit as an individual. For what can be seen is temporary, but what cannot be seen is eternal. Request Lord Messiah our Yeshua to put his hands upon your eyes, then our eyes will be opened, our sight will be restored, we will see things clearly. 
10.     Understand death on earth is one of the destinations in the journey of our life, it is not the end of life. After death we can have heavenly peace with our Messiah Yeshua. It is a not a fable, or a myth but a reality because our Lord Messiah Yeshua resurrected and his grave is still empty.   Do not be a dry vessel, one who has no hope. Cheer up, there is call for us to come, accept everlasting Life as written in John chapter 4: verses 13-14  Jesus answered and said to her, Whoever drinks of this water shall thirst again,  (14)  but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst, but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
As king Solomon has written in 960 BCE, keep your heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Diligence of heart can be maintained by the daily meditating upon relevance of living word of God. As it is written:  2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is God-breathed, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. The lordship of Christ over our will and emotions in our life is mandatory in for survival.
Come Let us pray to be receive the GRACE of Last Adam i.e. (Messiah Yeshua’s) grace in our lives. Submit our soul, spirit and body to him claiming these verses from the scriptures Romans 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, pleasing to God, which is your reasonable service.  (2)  And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, in order to prove by you what is that good and pleasing and perfect will of God.
Amen and Amen, God bless, Shalom.
