The Last Adam
Where the first Adam fell in a garden, the last Adam stood firm in a wilderness, covered our shame, and took up the dominion Adam lost.
The lesson walks through the topic one card at a time. The full study is the complete written article, with its sources.
Set four scenes from Genesis 1 to 3 beside the life of Jesus: the covering of shame, the image and dominion, the first marriage, and the temptation.
Show where the New Testament itself draws these lines (Hebrews 2 and Ephesians 5), and where the likeness is a picture (the coats of skins and the temptation).
Explain where Adam falls short of Christ, and why Jesus is both our substitute and our example when we are tempted.
Apply the last Adam's victory to shame, to marriage, and to temptation today.
