1 Corinthians 15:45-49

45 Thus it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 46 But it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual. 47 The first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man is from heaven. 48 As was the man of dust, so also are those who are of the dust, and as is the man of heaven, so also are those who are of heaven. 49 Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the man of heaven.

Talk about it:

• This Bible passage reminds us that Adam came from the dust. Where does it say that Jesus, the second Adam, came from?

• God created Adam and expected him to obey God’s command. What was the command God gave him?

• Jesus came to earth to do God’s work too. What was Jesus’s work?

Pray about it:

Thank God that he made Jesus into the second Adam. Thank him that Jesus had the same choice Adam had, but Jesus made the right choice and did not disobey.
