Adam is God

The Bible is a key in itself. You have to read it with the help of the keys.

Here is the concept of One:

2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day [is] with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

That's pathetic, even by the low standards of Pantsonfire. That verse in no way supports the idiotic contention that scripture teaches that Adam and Eve were a single individual. It also in no way supports the silly conentions by Pantsonfire about "oneness."

Corinthians 15:45 is a bad translation. The second Adam should not be capitalized. This is an incredibly important distinction to take into consideration. The first "Adam" in the passage is a proper noun. It is the name of a person. The name Adam is derived from the word man--God named him "Man." The second "Adam" is a common noun and shouldn't be capitalized because it means "man" in the general use of the word. Corinthians 15:45 talks about the two men that God supposedly played a role in bringing to this Earth. The first man, Adam, was a natural person of which the body came first and the spirit second. The last man, Jesus, was a spiritual person of which the body came second. The first man, Adam, was not spiritually transcendent, but the last man, Jesus, was.

(Are people tired of hearing me say "bad translation" yet?)

:p

Practically everytime I've used the words "bad translation" I am looking at the translation and scholar notes provided in the NET Bible.

Adam is the father of the human race.

so where did the rest of us come from?

Were Eve and her sons engaged in incest?

They don't understand the concept of One. That is why they think that Adam and Eve were two individual people.

Now you are claiming that Adam and Eve were one and the same?????

Exactly as we stated, you do not even understand the concept of One.

Perhaps, instead of being condescending, you could enlighten me.

Are you trying to say that one Adam is a thousand Adams? That the story isn't about a real Adam and a real Eve, but about bunches of people? Next thing you'll say they weren't in the garden of Eden with the serpent, either, and it didn't happen back at the very beginning of creation. And from that other thread (forgot which one), who/what is God?

Ok, but nor Adam nor Jesus are God, they were merely mortals. There is only one God who is self-sufficient and ever lasting. Do you understand the concept of monotheism?

Good friend, we know that Adam and Jesus are not God the Creator. Many Christians believe that Jesus is God. So we posed the question, if Jesus is God, then why not Adam?

Are we talking about the Adam from Genesis, or some other tall/arrogant being who may not be tall much longer? Just wondering.

The Adam from Genesis is the Adam that is here today. Nothing has changed.
