Mar 13:26 And then shall they be seeing the Son of Mankind coming in clouds with much power and glory.
Mar 10:45 For even the Son of Mankind came, not to be served, but to serve, and to give His soul a ransom for many."
Peace...Mark

Nan:
Why did Paul refer to Jesus as the last Adam? there are plenty of men born after His crucifixion. There's a lot more here than my puny brain can understand.
Deborah-Leigh:
There is a first man, Adam. We know who he is.
There is a second man from heaven.
1Co 15:47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
So the second man, is The Lord from heaven.
Joh 3:13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
Eph 4:10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.
The Last Adam, is not said to be a man, as far as I understand and see the Scriptures.…
Also, God is not a man.
God is not a person. L Ray Smith
God is not even a Spirit. God IS SPIRIT and perhaps this is what is hidden in the reference to the quickening life giving Spirit that is God when we read of the Last Adam? Who can be after God? Non...no one. Likewise, who is before God. Same answer...

Deborah-Leigh:
A few more questions.... :)
To be a son of man and son of God may well be a description of us. Are we not being made by God into His Image beginning with natural Adam, and then the spiritual via Christ who is the second man from heaven, we are being made into the image of God in the Spirit of God who is the quickening spirit Last Adam? Is this not how we are of God and through Christ being made into Gods children and heirs of His Son who is of God, from heaven already begotten, without which we are nothing. ... Right?
We are being begotten of God through first the natural then the spiritual.
The angels who are also sons of God are not begotten as the Sons and Daughters of God who are of man and are natural first, and then, by and of The Spirit of God, God conformes us to His Image and Likeness to be His co-heirs with His Son Jesus Christ. Right? Well, thats what I understand at this time based on :
1Co 15:46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. .
