To blame Adam for sin and death is to have looked past the Adam within. Through His sovereignty, God uses even the sin and death in our life as an opportunity to reveal His grace, mercy and love, characteristics we couldn't know and experience otherwise. It's the ultimate chess match that He can't lose.... That is, that He can and will use even the evil formed against Him to display His great goodness. By design, He gave humanity a free will and through that, a choice. In EVERY choice made, His character is more deeply revealed. For those choices made by us for His good, His love is birthed in and through us. For those choices made against His goodness, His love, mercy and grace are given a platform to be experienced. Checkmate!
How bright the sun appears after rising out of the darkness...
