The fall of Adam and Salvation

Posted on 4 January, 2022 by Administrator

Adam the first ruler, who had dominion over the Earth was dwelling peacefully in the Kingdom of God on earth until he transgressed the Law (the word of God is Law in the Kingdom), which resulted in Adam and his descendants to be under eternal Judgment to death. (Consequences of transgressing the law). Adam lost his state as a king (ruler) of the earth, as a son and as a priest of God.

Genesis 2:17

But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.

Those who don’t believe that God exist death is the evidence that God is King and a Judge whatever he says fulfils because he is a just King.

Isaiah 55:10-11

For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return there but water the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the Sower and bread to the eater, so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.

God is love and merciful so he gave Adam and his descendants a second chance to repent, in order to be restored back as a son of God; reconciled to God for salvation (Eternal Life and joy). God foresaw Adam’s fall, so he made provisions for this by sending Jesus Christ to sacrifice his life for us.

John 11:25-27

Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The person, who believes in me, even though he dies, will live. Indeed, everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe that?”

“Yes, Lord,” she told him. “I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, the one who was to come into the world.

Matthew 27:52-57

and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs after Jesus’ resurrection andwent into the holy city and appeared to many people.

Matthew 22:31-33

As for the resurrection from the dead, haven’t you read what was spoken to you by God when he said, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? Heis not the God of the dead, but of the living.”

1 John 4:16

So, we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

1 John 4:8

Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.

Romans 5:8

But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

1 John 4:19

We love because he first loved us.

1 John 4:7

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God.

From the Prophets until John the Baptist and King Jesus, the law was preached. The first public statement of Jesus Christ the anointed King was repent the Kingdom of God is here (Kingdom now) and its righteousness. In the Kingdom of God, the King is personally responsible for the Kingdom citizens so he laid down his life to fulfil all righteousness by bearing Adam's sin (rebellious to Gods Law) to save and free us from eternal death and restore us back to what we lost as sons and daughters of God. If Jesus Christ was not obedient to God's law to even die as a substitute for Adam, this would have separated us from the Kingdom of God, which would have meant living in darkness and ignorance forever. Thank God for his mercies and grace, we have become the children of light because King Jesus is the light of the world. Everyone has the chance to repent and enter into the Kingdom of God for salvation (Eternal Life and joy) by acknowledging Jesus as King, messiah (saviour) and redeemer, and also by humbly putting on the character of the king with help of the Holy Spirit our counsellor, given to us as a gift from God. The character of the king should reflect in the kingdom. We should have a personality like King Jesus.

But most of people on this earth will not embrace the Love, mercies and grace of God. But rather be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, covetousness and all kinds of evils.

Ephesians 2:10

For we are God’s masterpiece, created in the MessiahJesus to perform good actions that God prepared long ago to be our way of life.

Matthew 7:12

So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.

Hebrews 10:15-17

The Holy Spirit also assures us of this, for he said: "This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws in their hearts and will write them on their minds, and I will never again remember their sins and their lawless deeds."

Ephesians 3:16

I pray that he would give you, according to his glorious riches, strength in your inner being and power through his Spirit,

2 Corinthians 3:18

As all of us reflect the glory of the Lord with unveiled faces, we are becoming more like him with ever-increasing glory by the Lord's Spirit.

2 Peter 1:5

For this very reason, you must make every effort to supplement your faith with moral character, your moral character with knowledge.

2 Timothy 3:16-17

All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work.

Hebrews 4:12

For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

2 Timothy 3:2

For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy.

Luke 12:15

And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”

1 Timothy 6:9-10

But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.
