It is amazing to see the expressions on Christian’s faces when one presents them with the realization that if the traditional church gospel is true, then Christ failed miserably in his purpose for coming here. In Adam ALL died quite apart from our participation. Through Adam we were all condemned because of his transgression. Below is a snippet from one of our books Whatever Became of Melanie by Alan Chevrier that states the case concisely.
(Romans 5:18-21)
“Now what was the result of Adam’s transgression? It was universal condemnation of all, without first consulting them or asking for their contribution. The result of Adam’s disobedience was complete and universal in its scope and consequence, plunging each and every member of his race into sin and spiritual separation from God.
Now, just as Adam’s sin had a direct, powerful, irresistible effect on the whole for evil, so the righteous act of Christ has a direct, powerful, irresistible effect on the whole for good. Just as one sin resulted in universal, real, actual condemnation, so the one act of
righteousness performed by Christ, the second Adam, results in universal, real, actual justification, not just an opportunity to cast your lot in with Jesus, not just the offer of life, but the real, actual, powerful impartation of life! The real actual, powerful communication of righteousness! The plain language of the text allows for nothing less!” ——Whatever Became of Melanie, by Allan Ernest Chevrier (2005), pp. 138-139.
