Transcript

Over the last few days we’ve seen that the Bible is abundantly clear that Adam was historical—the gospel is even founded on this fact! So why do so many Christians deny his historicity?

Because they’ve chosen to accept the wisdom of the world over God’s wisdom. Instead of trusting that God accurately recorded for us in his Word what happened in the past, they’ve put their faith in man’s sinful, fallible ideas and adjusted the Bible to fit them. But when man’s ideas inevitably change yet again, they’ll have to change the Bible again!

Our faith shouldn’t lie in man’s ideas. We need to trust the “God-breathed” Scriptures.
