Book traversal links for Christ Is Holier Than Adam
To say that the divine Light of the world could have sinned while He was on earth is to say that Christ’s human nature made Him less than impeccably holy. Yet this is exactly what some people are saying about Christ today. For example, some people say that Christ had to be tempted as the “last Adam” in order to find out whether He would sin, even as Adam in the Garden of Eden had to be tempted in order to find out whether lie would sin. However, no Bible verse can be used to validate this comparison, simply because no such Bible verse exists! The only directly stated Biblical comparison between Christ and Adam is actually a contrast between the first Adam as the bringer of death and the last Adam (Christ) as the bringer of life (Romans 5:12-20 and First Corinthians 15:4-5-56).
