Simon Turpin defends the historicity of the first Adam as a person who existed in space and time, how he was specially created by God, his fall from grace and its impact on his descendants and creation.
Supernaturally created by God, given dominion over Creation, enjoyed a brief, unique, unbroken relationship with the Creator, but his disobedience to the Creator’s command brought sin into the world, and he and his wife were driven from the garden in Eden, into the darkness of a sin-cursed world.
The eternal Son of God, born of a virgin in a sin-cursed world, truly God made flesh, the last Adam — Jesus Christ — obeyed the Law of God perfectly, yet gave His life as a ransom for sin, so that we could obtain salvation — reconciling the broken relationship with God, caused by the first Adam.
