Adam and Jesus the first M2M

2-3-09

Have you ever had anyone from a Church tell you that man 2 man can not be natural/normal because of course the FIRST was Adam and Eve a Man and Woman, that Adam was created by God then Eve from his rib and that well-known taunt "it was Eve not ST Eve -- Steve" therefore how the first relationship must have been hetero -- or was it?

Well, time for a second look!

John 1:1-3 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God
2 He was in the beginning with God
3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made."

"The Word" means Jesus and He was "in the beginning" so this means at Genesis in Eden. For more proof, reading Ephesians 3:9, as we come to the end it says "God who created all things through Jesus Christ";

and Hebrews 1:2 "has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;" so Jesus was involved in creation and was in Eden as described in Genesis 1 and 2

In Gen 3:8 Adam and Eve are described as hiding from God as they hear Him walking in the garden, now I find it difficult to believe that this is the first time God has visited Eden especially since He needs to call to Adam -- does He not think of this as a regular meeting?

Now Gen 2:7-9 and vs 16,17 this is God's creation of Adam and His close instruction of him what he can and can not eat; He then goes on to ask Adam what the animals should be called (v19).

Up to now Adam has been don't forget a naked and unashamed MAN before his God, that is Jesus.

I think Adam and Jesus had a man 2 man relationship and met in the garden of Eden regularly the trees forming a natural cathedral and would the birds and animals join him as the rest of the congregation? These events are between Gen 2:7,8 and Gen 2:21

I am convinced that Jesus and Adam were buddies in Eden and met again and again before it was decided that Adam needed a wife and children.
