1 Corinthians 15:45
So it is written: "The first man Adam became a living being; the last Adam, a life-giving spirit."

What does it mean 'first and last'?

Answer 1

First Adam is physical Adam in Eden.



The last Adam is life- giving spirit means Second coming Christ will give us eternal life through the the bread and wine of the Passover.



The truth of the Passover abolished at the Council of Nicaea in 325 A.D which was established by first coming Christ. It means no one could have eternal life. We could not expect salvation without the Passover the truth about the tree of life. In this situation, the one who is able to restore the truth of the Passover is only God as it was 2,000 years ago.



Heb. 9:28 『so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.』



The purpose of Christ coming a second time is for our salvation. To bring us salvation the Passover is absolutely needed. The One who allowed us the Passover truth is Ahnsahnghong.



Therefore, Ahnsahnghong is Christ who came in this age according to all the prophecy of the Bible. He restored the truth of the Passover, and saved us from our sin and death. He is our God.

Answer 2

Life Giving Spirit

Answer 3

The first man Adam represents the first coming Christ, the last Adam represents the second coming Christ.



1Corinthians 15:45 And so it is said, The first man Adam was a living soul. The last Adam is a life-giving spirit.

But that which is natural comes before that which is of the spirit.

The first man is from the earth, and of the earth: the second man is from heaven.

Those who are of the earth are like the man who was from the earth: and those who are of heaven are like the one from heaven. And in the same way as we have taken on us the image of the man from the earth, so we will take on us the image of the one from heaven.



Then, who is the last Adam who is a life-giving spirit?



Rom. 5:14 『...Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come.』

Since the book of Romans was written after Jesus had already ascended, the “one to come” mentioned in the above verse indicates the Second Coming Jesus.



Therefore the last Adam represents the Second Coming Jesus who is a life-giving spirit.

Then, how he gives us the spiritual life?



John 6:53-55 『Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink."』



Jesus promised that the bread of the Passover was His flesh, and that the wine of the Passover was His blood.



Matt. 26:17-28 『...So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover...While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take and eat; this is my body." Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins."』



Therefore, the one who gives us the Passover is the second coming Christ in these ages.

hi~ Jennifer ~~



Last Adam means only God. Because Only God gives us eternal life~



The Bible prophesies that when Jesus comes to the earth for a second time, He will come in a cloud [in the flesh] in the same way He came for the first time. Therefore, there must be prophecies which testify where He will appear in His second coming. At the time of His first coming, it had been prophesied that Jesus would come from Bethlehem. Like this, the Bible also prophesies about where He will appear in His second coming. The Bible prophesies that He will be born in Korea, located in the east, at the ends of the earth.



The Second Coming Christ, Ahnsahnghong, was born, in the flesh, in Korea—the land in the east—in 1948, according to the prophecies of the Bible. How can we not bow down before God when every word of His prophecy is accomplished? We, the members of the Church of God, believe what is written in the Bible. We sincerely hope that you may recognize the Second Coming Christ, of whom the Bible prophesies.



Korea, the Country in the East, at the Ends of the Earth

Isa. 24:15-16 『Therefore in the east give glory to the LORD; exalt the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, in the islands of the sea. From the ends of the earth we hear singing: "Glory to the Righteous One."』



The above prophecy reveals that God’s chosen people will give glory and praise to the God in the east. When we read this chapter from the first verse, it is clear that this prophecy is concerning the last day—the last day when God will ruin the earth’s face and will burn up all of the inhabitants. When God banishes all of the gaiety form the earth, a certain group of people will shout for joy and will give glory to God, meaning that God would guide His chosen people on the last day, from the east.



Then, where is "the east"? First, we have to know the point of origin. Isaiah prophesied from the country of Israel. Thus, "the east" must be a land east of Israel: Asia. Among the countries in Asia, which country is located towards the east, "at the ends of the earth"? Russia is to the north, India is south, and China is Central Asia. Even Japan, though located in the east, is not a land at the ends of the earth—it is in the middle of the sea.



It is only Korea that is located in the east, at the ends of the earth. Thus, the Second Coming Christ is prophesied to come from Korea, in the east, at the ends of the earth. In accordance with the prophecy, Christ Ahnsahnghong came from Korea. The Church of God, departing from the fixed ideas of men, received Ahnsahnghong as the Second Coming Christ because He has fulfilled all of the prophecies about Jesus’ second coming. Everything stems from the boundless grace and love of God Ahnsahnghong.

Answer 6

The first Adam brought us to sin and the price of that sin is death. It took the very precious blood of Jesus Christ to pay the price.

Now the last Adam is Jesus Christ. Because of His resurrection life, now that eternal life is available to anyone who wants to live forever in heaven.

The gospel is death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Only Jesus Christ have the eternal life for us.

1st Adam gave us death and (2nd Adam) Jesus give as spiritual life or eternal life through Him. :)

The 1st adam symbolized of sin.

the 2nd adam (Jesus) gives life. (grace)
