- From Darkness to Light
Adam… was a type of the one who was to come. – Romans 5:14
Adam lived in Paradise, literally. He was the first human son of God created by His own hands. Adam lived in a beautiful world without sin and sorrow. There was not a single need his Heavenly Father did not satisfy. However, the wisdom of the Almighty Creator was undermined by Satan in the Garden of Eden. The relationship was lost when Adam surrendered to the enemy’s lies. Now every sin ever committed in history traces back to his one sin in the Garden.
In Adam, humans die but, in Christ, they can be made alive for eternity.
The judgment of God, which demands a penalty for sin, was intercepted by His love. The Father sent His Son, Jesus, to Earth as the perfect sacrifice. Christ’s death and resurrection reversed the curse that Adam’s sin brought into the world. Now, through accepting His free gift by faith, those who trust in Him go from death to life. Adam, through his disobedience to God, introduced sin into the world. Jesus Christ, through His obedience to God, paid the penalty for that sin.
When you receive the Lord by faith, He overcomes the darkness you inherited from Adam and makes you a child of light. If you have not, ask His forgiveness for your sin and invite the Lord into your life right now. Then, take every opportunity to share this good news with others who need the hope that can only be found in Christ. The greatest privilege you have is to help others experience His abundant supernatural life on Earth and for eternity in Paradise. Pray that more public servants on Capitol Hill also yield to Christ as their Lord and .
Today’s Verse: Romans 5:14
Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sinning was not like the transgression of Adam, who was a type of the one who was to come.

21 For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. 22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ. 24 Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power. 25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death. 27 For “God has put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “all things are put in subjection,” it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjection under him. 28 When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that God may be all in all.
