quickening spirit" uCor, 1o-41.)
After Brother Chaub crs has
gave us the heading above and
tho scripture referred to, then he
makes the statement, II he first
man Adam was made a living
SOUL And then again he states
And that first man was Gen. l.
81" Now | canno: help being
surprised at u man who sets
himself up to be a teacher, and
then evades the truth.
No~ we do not deny that the
man spoken OF in q Cor. l3-43.(
was the first complete man on
earth. naturally and spiritually
speaking. For THE Man ADAM
spoken of In Gen, 81 } was first
formed from the dust of the
ground, a natural MAJ, chen God
blew into his nostrils the breath
of life, (This breath of life. was
the blood, FOR the blood is the
life thereof, See Gen. 9-4,)
And man (the ADAM became a
living soul, here is the two souls,
or the two lives spoken Of, (soul
the natural life, and living soul,
eternal life.) So then Brother
Chambers the man you have re,
fered to in & Cor l3-43.A is the
first complete man. but he is not
the man spoken Of in Gen. l-21. }
This man was the first natur.
81 man but lie was not any part
Of a spiritual man, when God Gre
ated HIM, accept in wisdom and
knowledge, he did not have a
living soul, at the time God crea.
ted him a natural man.
The desce ndants of this man
Adam, is where Cain got his wife
when God banishe ded him into
the land of Nod. And he is the
Adam VINO Paul referred to when
he said, THE last man Adam was
made a quicl1ening spirit. Il Cor.
15-45.) We suppose that Bro.
Chambers may say, this last man
Adam spoken OF was Christ; but
Paul cut short such belief. For
God brew that there would be
men, who would say this. and
that too in order to deceive
otnerS, Therefore, God cut out
the idea that either one of those
Adams was Christ. by the follow
ing context, please read,
''Howbeit that was not first
which is spiritual, but that
which is natural: ard afterward
that " hich is spiritual" / Cor,
I5-46.
This scripture. bars any one
of saying, that either OF the Two
Adams spoken OF above is Christ:
For Christ was always spirit.
ual, there is no natural man that
Guild have been before him.
And the context above says
How belt that which was spir-
itual was not first, but that
which was natural, And Christ
was always spiritual. Hence,
Christ could moi Of been spoken
of as one of those Adams, as
Christ was always spiritual aud
for this reason we repeat there
could have been no natural man
before Christ. And in those
two Adams spoken of above, the
natural Adam had to be first,
wherefore we must say the Nan
spoken of in Gen, 1-27) Was
the natural man. But was rot
a complete man, for the reason
was that he had not as yet receiv-
ed salvation, and this had to be
given in Christ. For Christ had
to make him quickning spirit.
And by this man not being a
complete man, the difference In
the two Adams was spoken Of in
this manner.
Sing, O barren, thou that
didst NOT bear; break forth into
singing, and cry aloud, thou that
uidst not travail with child: for
more are the children of the de.
ISOLATE than the children of the
married wife. saith the Lord"
