The first Adam dies and brought evil inclination on the world known as original sin.
The second Adam, which is called Yeshua, defeated that concept. So, in the first Adam
came death, and in the second Adam came life (See I Cor 15:45). You have life today,
because of Yeshua! Isn't that a marvelous thing!
Genesis 3:15 tells you right away the plan of God. That part of the Trinity, Son of Man,
the Angel of the LORD, is also referred to many times in the Bible, was to become a man.
The Word of God is what John 1:1 says. The Word of God was God and became flesh!
He became a man. The Word of God was the one that created all things. That's what it
says in Colossians 1:16, that Yeshua created all things! He's the creator! He wasn't just
some servient guy, there to take care of everyone's whims and desires. He was servient
to the Father and He listened to the Father while He was here on earth. But now He is
with the Father, and He and the Father are one. The Bible says while He was on earth,
He was made a little lower than the Elohim, which means a plural God (Ps. 8:5, Heb. 2: 7-9).
It says in Psalms that He was made a little lower than the angels; however, in
Strong's Concordance, "angels" refers to Elohim. Sometimes translated as "judge,"
sometimes "mighty," but it's talking about the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
So, what does Psalms mean that He was made a little lower than Elohim? It's about when
He became Yeshua. As a man, He was made a little lower than Elohim Himself, because
that's why He had to listen to the Father. Whatever the Father told Him, He did. Certain
things can be revealed only by the Father, because He did not at that time have 100%
of the knowledge His Father had while He was here on this earth. Remember, when He
was in His fleshly body, He said He didn't know the day or the hour of His return.
But He knows now. He's sitting at the right hand of the Father up there. He certainly knows
because He has the mind of the Father. He didn't know when He was walking on the earth,
so He constantly gave credit to His Father. He was somewhat limited in His knowledge.
That's what it means when it says that He was made a little lower than Elohim.
It's amazing what God has done.
