NASB 1 Corinthians 15:45 Thus it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 46 But it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual. 47 The first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man is from heaven.

But the last Adam — that is, Christ — is a life-giving Spirit. 46 What came first was the natural body, then the spiritual body comes later. 47 Adam, the first man, was made from the dust of the earth, while Christ, the second man, came from heaven. 48 Every human being has an earthly body just like Adam's, but our heavenly bodies will be just like Christ's. 49 Just as we are now like Adam, the man of the earth, so we will someday be like Christ, the man from heaven. 50 What I am saying, dear brothers and sisters, is that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. These perishable bodies of ours are not able to live forever. 51 But let me tell you a wonderful secret God has revealed to us. Not all of us will die, but we will all be transformed. 52 It will happen in a moment, in the blinking of an eye, when the last trumpet is blown. For when the trumpet sounds, the Christians who have died will be raised with transformed bodies. And then we who are living will be transformed so that we will never die. 53 For our perishable earthly bodies must be transformed into heavenly bodies that will never die.

Quantrill God's Word is perfect. There are not two creation accounts as some would suppose. When God created man He created him in His own image but He also manifested him as, 'out of the dust of the earth'. Adam was not deceived but entered into the transgression with the wife that he loved because he knew that God would not lose him, but he was not able to redeem her. The second Adam, Jesus Christ is able, he became the kinsman and entered in to pay the price and redeem His bride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am asking why is He called the Last Adam and Second Man. As far as your answer goes, the term 'Last' or 'Second' didn't have to be there. Why is it there?

But it still doesnt' tell me why Jesus Christ is called the 'Last Adam' and the 'Second Man'. Quantrill Greetings, I recommend close reading of Romans 5. See if that helps. Adam was the founder of a race; we were all seminally present in Adam in the garden. And that is why we are sinners, born with the Adamic sinful nature. Christ founded a new race of the children of God. We who trust Christ & thus are baptized by the Holy Spirit (1 Cor 12:13) have been incorporated into the Body of Christ and are a new race. The reason why we are righteous is because Christ is righteous, and we are in Christ. We are all present on the cross with Him & raised with Him. The two men are both founders of a race of men.
