Hello, my name is Paul, and I am the voiceover for a new ministry provided to you by Jim Pugh at God is Government called Your Daily Bread, taken from Christ's teaching of the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6, verse 11. This is a daily devotion ministry focused not only on uplifting Scripture, but Scripture that will grow your spiritual connection with Christ. We hope that you receive these devotions to uplift you, encourage you, but most importantly, advance your knowledge base of the Holy Scriptures. Today's focus discussion will be on understanding who is Adam. One of the most theological misunderstandings is in these first seven verses of Genesis chapter 2. Why is that? Pulpits from around the world do not want to change their taught narrative that this physical body we house the Spirit of God in is the image of God. This is such a lie. Another misunderstanding is that God took a break from his creation and formation of the heaven and earth, meaning he stopped everything and laid down for a period of time to rest. Wow. God is in timelessness. So I guess that if this happened, and according to Scripture, God must have slept for a thousand years, because one day is a thousand years. God created the entire environment and his apostolic government prior to the formation of man, what we know as God's heavenly hosts, not humanity. In Genesis 2.1, God states, Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. This verse tells us that God's Elohim, creation process, was finished. The word hosts in Hebrew is the word tseva, am. The root word from which we get tseva am is tsaba. The definition of tsaba is army, war or warfare. God's army was the angels and celestial beings he created as a result of Genesis 1 1 and Genesis 1 26 and 27. In Genesis 2 2-3, 2 and on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. 3 and God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made. The key word here is rested. We have been taught that God rested, he quit, laid down, and rested. God has no need in resting. The Hebrew word used in the original text is Shabbat, meaning to cease, stop, or end process. In verse 3, God Elohim blessed his creation. In other words, he sanctified his creation for life. In Genesis 2, verse 4 to 5. 4. These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens. Five every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew. For the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. This makes the myth that Genesis 126-27 creation was the same as Genesis 2.7. Had they been the same, then, the man God created in Genesis 126-27 would be a man who could till the ground. The creation was done by Elohim, the personality of the all-powerful God. It was at this point that Elohim, the all-powerful God, was ready to shift the finishing up the formation of the earth to Adonai. God, Elohim, finished creating and shifted the formation, the relationship of God to the earth, to the personality of God called Adonai. How do we know of the shift in God's personality going from creation to formation? It is in the use of the word Lord God in verse Genesis 2.7 versus the word God throughout chapter 1. When you read Scripture, and you see the word Lord God that represents the relationship God called Adonai. In Genesis 2, 6-7, 6, but there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground. 7. And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul. I want to go to 1 Corinthians 15 40. This is St. Paul's first letter to the Church at Corinthians. It states, There are also celestial bodies and bodies terrestrial, but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. Paul is telling the Church at Corinthians about the creation and who they are. When we look at the Greek, the word celestial used in Greek, the language written in the New Testament, as Eporania, which comes from the root word epi, meaning on or upon, and another root word auranos, which means heaven. So celestial beings were the beings created in Genesis 1.1, Genesis 1, 26-27, and now in the completion of man, Genesis 2-7. When we look up the Greek word for terrestrial, we find it is epigea, which also comes from the first root word of epi, meaning on or upon, with the second root word being J, which means the earth or land. This point in St. Paul's letter he tells the people of Corinthians that those in Christ, those who have accepted Christ as their saviour and been reborn again, will go through a change. It states, Behold, I show you a mystery. Paul is referring to the change that takes place, will take place when Christ returns. The Greek word for sleep is koimetha semetha, which means to put to sleep or die. The Greek word for change is alaga semetha, which comes from the root word alos, which means another. So, for those living at the time of Christ return, we will not be put to sleep or die, but we shall be changed into another being, one of celestial, and go meet Christ in the air. 1 Thessalonians 14, verse 17. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air, and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Going back to 1 Corinthians 15, verse 51, the word I want to concentrate on that applies back to Genesis 2, verse 7, is the word mystery. The Greek word for mystery is masterion, which comes from the root words rom, mustes, meaning one initiated, and from mua, which means to initiate into the mysteries, to instruct or to anoint. The definition of anoint is to ceremonially confer divine or holy office upon a priest or monarch by smearing or rubbing with oil. The word mystery is where we get the word mist used in Genesis 2, verse 7. So now let's get back to our review of the formation of man in Genesis 2.6. But there went up a mist from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground. The word mist is translated from Hebrew, ud meaning to brand. So when we go find how God branded people, places, and things, was through his anointing. What we have in this verse is God Elohim, not only blessing his creation, but branding everything in the earth as his becoming the ownership of all things. When we go and look at Genesis 2 verse 7, God has anointed Adam, even before he is formed. Why is this important? This is important because each of us at the time of conception are created inside our mother's womb as anointed beings owned by God, even before we are physically born from our mother's womb. This means we are part of God's apostolic kingdom, even as we are being created. This means that upon birth, children are gods, mortal beings being held as born-again beings, who will automatically go to heaven to be with him if they die before the age of accountability. This means that as accountable beings, when we accept Christ as our Savior, we far under the apostolic ownership of God, and know upon death is to be present with the Lord. This means that we have the anointing of God within the new covenant through the Holy Spirit to hold any of the five apostolic offices of God that we are called to perform. In Ephesians 4.11. And he gave some apostles and some prophets and some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers. Genesis 2.7. And the Lord God Adonai formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul. But we know from Genesis 2, 21 to 22. 21, and the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept. And he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof. 22 And the rib which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. That God is telling us he is forming man which will represent all future men in forming mankind. Breathed into his nostrils. Nostrils is translated from the Hebrew word bay at pav, which comes from the root word anaf, meaning to be angry. Breath is translated from the Hebrew word nishmat, which comes from the root word nasham, which means to pant. Life is translated from the Hebrew word kaya, meaning to live. Adonai formed man from the dust of the ground, and through angry panting breathed air in his nostrils, God's own breath of life, which man became a living soul. The word soul is translated from the Hebrew word is le nefesh, meaning a soul, living being, life, self, person, desire, passion, appetite, emotion. The question here is, did God breathe the breath of life into his God's nostrils or Adam's? We answer this by looking forward into 1 Corinthians 15, 45. And so it is written, the first man Adam was made a living soul, the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. Adam the first formed man was the incarnation of God on earth, as Christ is God in the last Adam. So, God in formation of Adam was the incarnation of God, spirit, wrapped with an earthly spirit, because earth is God's kingdom, not the world, body, which is a celestial being, not a terrestrial being. This meant that Adam at time of formation was an immortal being. So Adam was the third Adam, not the first Adam. The first Adam was created in God's thought, in Ephesians 1 verses 1-14, before the foundation of the world. Then the next man was created in Genesis 1.26. Then the third man was formed. It was Adam that we have been taught as the first Adam. The pulpit has taught us that the first man was Adam, and the Christ is the second Adam. Pastors use the scripture in 1 Corinthians 15 45 to state that Christ is the second Adam. This is a lie. Paul states that the first man Adam was made a living soul. That is true. Paul went on to state the last Adam was Christ a quickening spirit. Paul did not state that Christ was the second Adam. Theologians have been taught this lie through their seminary, cemetery. When we understand the process of creation of man and the formation of man as a progression of creation, we can then understand who we are. In our original natural state of being, celestial, God created us to be in his image and likeness, spirit, formed as he wanted to form us as a living soul as the man first and the woman second, in the image of the man. This hierarchy of the complete creation process is exactly the apostolic authority structure of God. In this state of being, we were spirit wrapped in a body made of dust that housed the light of God. We are not a terrestrial being first. We are a spiritual being living in a terrestrial suit. What we need to understand is that Adam was a system of mankind, a kind of man, and that system was given instructions to follow to always understand the covering of God through the obedience of mankind. When we go outside this hierarchy, through disobedience in our unnatural self, we are not under the apostolic covering of God, and we leave the door open to all Lucifer's wickedness. Thank you for joining us in this exploration of who is Adam. Until next time, remember to keep the faith, stay strong, and continue to shine your light in the world.
