3 References to Adam

For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.  1 Corinthians 15:22

God is not holding your sins against you.  Remember that sin entered into the human race because of the transgression of Adam in Genesis 3:6.  Throughout the 66 books of the Bible though, Adam is referenced by name concerning his transgression only 3 times after the Book of Genesis and apart from the genealogies of the sons of Adam.  His name is mentioned in Job 31:33, Romans 5:14, and 1 Corinthians 15:22.  This suggests that God is far more concerned with our righteousness and future than our sin and past.  God does not constantly focus on Adam’s sin and condemn his seed but He focuses on our righteousness.  The Bible states that “He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.”  Don’t focus on your past or mistakes but focus on your righteousness as a born again believer!
