So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being [soul]”; the last Adam, a life-giving spirit.
From dust to Heaven.
From a living soul to a life-giving spirit.
In Christ we are becoming a new creation, a new kind of humanity.
Adam died on the cross. When Christ was resurrected, a new kind of Life was revealed. We are to count ourselves dead on the cross with Christ so we might begin to live in resurrection life.
This is a total transformation of what we are, and all things of us now are of God.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! (II Corinthians 5:17)
I wonder how long it will be before the Christian ministers begin to preach that our goal is not to bring our soul to Heaven but to change from a living soul to a life-giving spirit.
For our soul to be saved means to be changed from its adamic inheritance to a life-giving spirit.
Then it will be clothed with an incorruptible body. As soon as we are filled with the Father, the Son, and the Spirit of God, we have experienced the totality of salvation, including the destruction of the last enemy, physical death.
It can be seen easily that if it is true and scriptural that salvation is a change from a living soul to a life-giving spirit, and not the bringing of our soul, our adamic personality, to a mansion in Paradise, a change in the conventional Christian preaching is called for.
