Wherever I Looked there he was

Hello friends, Here you will find my second attempt to carry you along the road I  traveled, and tell you about a man I found  along the way that reminded me of my self . His Name was Adam. Just to help you to understand what and where I'm going with this blog adventure, Ill tell you what I am not, a Bible thumper nut, a religious zealot a member of a cult or trying to sway you into a Christian world view of my road to Damascus experience. I am simple sharing out of love a great joy I have found, with my friends..........Someone once said  " The inadequacy of the answer we receive is a direct consequence of the limitations implicit in the viewpoints of the questioner" That being said I know not all of you view the story of Adam in Geneses and his fall into sin from the same Biblical prospective, there are several camps as to interpatation etc. But what I hope we can all agree on as Christians in that it was the fall of Man[Adam means man in Hebrew] that brought about the need for Jesus Christ to come in the form of a man and go to His death on the cross and in that  He died for and UNTO sin and the whole principal of sin for all the World. This was all necessary because a perfectly righteous God could not except the Adams of the world [all humans] into His presence[eternal life] and since turning away from God we humans [Adam] found ourselves imperfect , sinners no longer innocent , but guilty of going our own way by our own choice. Simply put a perfect God could not allow us in this condition to enter into a personal relationship with Him as then He would also be imperfect, which is impossible.The place mankind found themselves was alone and in spiritual death Oh they , Adam, I'm sure still believed in God but now in his conscious mind he becomes self centered and worldly going his own way just like us, not in the former Garden experience of direct fellowship with the Lord in a Innocent and free and open way, Which for Adam would result in spiritual death and as Adam the first is our representative man [the human race] we by association made in his[ Adams] likeness, found our selves in death , out of direct personal  fellowship with God, The sentence was pronounced, not by God, but by Adam brought upon himself by his volitional actions.Then came Gods plan of redemption , which we all know, as He scarified Himself in the form of Adam as a subsititute for us Adams. Of course no ordinary man could be that substitute hence the need for a NEW ADAM to represent the human race and die the physical and spiritual death for us in His perfection as the incarnate Son of God. I could go on but you get the idea and I'm sure new much of this.A wise man once said you cannot know the NEW ADAM until you know the old" Rom. 5:12 and death not only came into the world and the race but it reigned as king". As way of closing I just want to review who we are in the old Adam..........positioned in sin with a nature of sin, and having many personal sins. The good news comes next time as we will find ourselves at the end of the history of this old man and by the Cross find ourselves in the New Man our new identification in Christ  Hold fast my friends all is not lost much joy awaits in the second Adam.
