First Adam and Last Adam

Yes, Adam's one sin brought condemnation upon everyone, but Christ's one act of righteousness makes all people right in God's sight and gives them life. Romans 5: 18 (New Living Translation)

------------

"Too many Christians identify only with the first Adam, from whom they inherited physical life. But if you're a Christian, you are now identified with the last Adam, Jesus Christ. The first Adam was tempted to live independently of God, but Jesus was totally dependent on the Father. It's in Him that you have your true identify -- in whom you are saved, sealed, and seated in the heavenlies (Ephesians 2:6)!"

Neil T. Anderson, Freedom in Christ.
