Adam Before Eve (5 of 61)
In the Beginning
Pastor Jeff Schreve
Primary Scripture: Genesis 2:4-20
If you have your Bible, please turn to Genesis chapter 2. I want to talk to you about Adam before the creation of Eve. Now, how many in this room ever saw the movie, Ferris Bueller's Day Off? Did you see Ferris Bueller's Day Off? It was a very popular movie. Came out in 1986, Matthew Broderick starred as Ferris, and it was the story of this high-school kid skipping school and doing incredible things with his "day off." It was also a movie that made a guy that nobody really knew of before, Ben Stein, famous, and it made him famous for something as simple as saying, "Bueller!"
Well, if you saw the movie, you know that he calls in sick, he fakes his illness, and then he does so many things in this short window. He gets his friend, Cameron out of school, and he gets his girlfriend, Sloan out of school. He goes to the pool and hangs out at the pool. He plays his clarinet. They all get together. They take Cameron's dad's car. And then they go to the stock exchange there in Chicago, and then they go to the Museum of Art, and then they go to a Cubs game, and then they go to this fancy restaurant, and then he crashes the German parade and starts singing a Beatles' song, and everybody gets all excited about that. He does all of that. And he gets home and in bed before his parents come home at the end of the day. Now, you look at that, and you say, obviously it's just a movie, "Nobody could do all that in one day."
Well, when we look at day six of creation and all the things that God did and God had Adam do, it is amazing. I had a guy ask me last night, "How long was it before God created Eve after He created Adam?" I said, "Adam and Eve were created on the same day." Adam, no doubt, at the beginning of the day; Eve at the end of the day, but they are all created on day six. So, what happened with Adam before Eve? What happened on day six?
