Who is the last Adam / second Adam in 1 Corinthians 15:45?
In 1 Corinthians 15:45, the last Adam, also called the second Adam, is Jesus Christ. The first man Adam was made a living soul, but the last Adam was made a quickening, or life-giving Spirit. He never stopped being God.
Les explains that 1 Corinthians 15:45 contrasts the first man Adam, who was made a living soul, with the last Adam, the second Adam, who is Jesus Christ. Christ was made a quickening, or life-giving Spirit. Les points out that Christ never stopped being God; He was Divine, Deity, and God, refuting cults that deny His Deity. Les also notes the scriptural rule of first the natural, then the spiritual, seen in Cain and Abel, Ishmael and Isaac, Esau and Jacob, Saul and David, and finally Antichrist and the true Christ. The first man was earthy, made of the earth, while the last Adam is the life-giving Spirit.
And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
