The Devolution of Adam

In the day that you eat thereof you shall surely die. – Gen 2:17

The Bible teaches the truth of Evolution – negative evolution that is. Contrary to what our biology textbooks tout as irrefutable “fact”, Man and chimpanzees do NOT have a common ancestor. In Genesis 1, when God was creating the animals, He spoke to the waters to bring up the fish and the birds (1:20); He spoke to the ground to bring up all kinds of land animals and creatures (1:24); but when He wanted to create Man, He spoke to HIMSELF! (1:26).

Evolution tells us that we were once oafish cave men who are only now getting better. The Bible teaches that we were made in God’s image and are getting worse!

Even after the Fall, Man was still so intellectually advanced that he excelled in math, science and art. The Egyptian pyramids were composed of enormous 20-tonne limestone blocks that were cut to an incredible precision of plus or minus 1/16^th of an inch!

Ancient languages were much more complicated than modern ones! Any person today who can fluently read Sanskrit (the language of ancient India) would be considered a genius; yet that was their normal language. Some ancient languages would alternately write backward and forward: one line from left to right, and the next line from right to left, all the while using no paragraphs, and not even spaces between word and sentences! Try asking a schoolboy to write and read like that today.

Even our bodies are degenerating. A birthday of 200 years today will set a world record, yet Adam lived up to 930 and was alive to see the great-grandson of his great-grandson (Enoch)!

From the moment Adam sinned, our spirits became dead, our mental faculties began spiralling downwards and our bodies began to deteriorate. That’s why we need the Last Adam, Jesus. In Christ our spirits are recreated, are minds are renewed and at His return, we’ll inherit new bodies that will live forever.

For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. (1Co 15:22) Halleluyah!

AMEN.

More Blessings await you today; you’ll not miss them in Jesus’ Name.
