The penalty for Adam's sin Romans 6:23
(It is easy to incarcerate man in the physical but how does one incarcerate the
spiritual Matthew 25:41)
Key Verse: Romans 6:23
Today
1. The Qualities Required of the Redeemer
1. He must be exactly in the same position as Adam was. Be able to stand before
God as Adam did. The man must be an exact replica of Adam standing before God be
without fear and without shame.
2. Mortality and Immortality
Adam before the fall was a perfect and an eternal man. Adam after the fall was
an immortal man.
Resurrection and immortality must be granted man after the fall.
In the prevention of any repeat of Adam's error, Man must be a New Creation with
God's life or nature, perfect righteousness, perfect reconciliation and
fellowship. This will ensure a Full and unadulterated restoration.
3. Righteousness, fellowship and "Sonship"
Man must be recovered as a son of God -
- in God's heart.
- In God's creation
- In fellowship. Nothing must fall short.
- Quiz: Describe what it would take for Jesus to put off His Glory to take
on the body of a man.
4. Judgment
God takes Man's sin nature and puts it on Jesus. Jesus must undergo judgment.
Romans 6:23
5. The Payment for Sin and results
After payment Jesus is acquitted and that means Man is acquitted explain.
a further requirement is that The Redeemer-Man must be one that can stand
Satan's temptation and not fall
Such a person is qualified to pay for the sins of Adam.
To do this he must yield himself to the punishment to mete to Adam and should
remain until Justice determined that all Sin had been paid for.
He will stand for all who had believed and those who believe and those who will
believe!
Here must be stronger and greater than Satan. After the penalty has been paid he
will exact Justice. Satan does not play by the rules.

restored? Answer, Romans 5:12-15 One!
