ADAM OR EVE: THE CHILD IN ALL OF US

GENESIS 3:1-7

JESUS CHRIST, a literal historical figure, is called "the second
Adam." The first Adam was also a literal historical figure. There
was an actual historical homosapien named Adam who had a
helpmate named Eve.

The word "Adam" is used in the Book of Genesis generically for
"mankind," such as in Genesis 5: 2. However, it is also used as a
name of the individual man first created by God.

Gay Rights Activists try to twist this verse to imply unisex. As used
in this verse, it is a generic term for mankind. God created them

---Enough lime to whitewash a small building.
---Enough phosphorus to make 24 hundred match tips.
---Enough magnesium for a single dose of "Milk of Magnesia."
---Enough potassium to explode a toy cannon.
---And a little sulfur added.

The chemical components of a rocket scientist, brain surgeon,
migrant laborer, or third world peasant are worth approximately
$10.00. That will deflate your ego.

Skeptics scoff at the idea of God creating. Some conscientiou ...
