This message journeys back to the dawn of creation, exploring God’s two distinct realms—the visible and the invisible. Discover humanity’s original design as a unique interface between these worlds, a being of spirit and body. We explore the tragic impact of the fall that severed this connection, and how Jesus Christ, as the “new Adam,” has gloriously restored this dual nature within us. Finally, understand the Church as the foretaste of our true habitat, a spiritual community destined for complete oneness with God. Come, delve into the eternal relevance of this transformative truth.
There is a woman inside of Adam. Do you hear that? There is a woman hidden inside of Adam. Would you say that with me? There is a woman hidden inside of Adam. Won’t you just say it? There is a woman inside Adam. I don’t mean there’s a little something about this stall that’s kind of stuck in there between the esophagus and the lung; I don’t mean that. I mean that by some great mystery, there is a woman hidden inside Adam. God breaks the skin of Adam and reaches in and pulls forth…careful here…He pulls forth Adam. That’s Adam God holds in His hand. He has reached in and brought forth a part of Adam. It’s still Adam, alive and pulsating. And it is glowing. It is glowing. And then God begins to…and it begins and to grow. And it continues to grow.
Adam is asleep. And the rib began to grow under the forming hand of God, until there has grown…how shall I say this? Do not consider this another creature. Please, this is Adam. And this bone now grows and forms. This is not a creation. Can you understand? This is not a creation. This is Adam. Fashioned, fashioned, and there stands Adam…slightly different. Still, please follow me. I know you know about identical twins who’ve come from the same egg, and they can do a kidney transplant; there’s no rejection. They are the same person.
I know you’ve heard of DNA. I know you’ve heard of DNA. The little spiral thing inside of us that has 100,000 codes in it, and each code is incredible in its complexity. I was told the other day that the scientists have asked for the opportunity to decode all 100,000 codes in the DNA. And they estimate it will cost the same amount of money it does to put a man on the moon. And it will be a project that will involve thousands and tens of thousands of scientists and the greatest and best computers in the world, and it will take 30 years. And it will be 1000 volumes long with 1000 pages in each volume, and it will take approximately 10,000 years to figure out what it means. This is a fact. I heard the proposal itself made. 10,000 years to go through those volumes and figure out what each one of those little DNAs does. You’ve got that in every gene and in every cell in your body. Your genetic code.
Are you following? Well, my dear friend, I’m trying to get you to understand that at this moment, there is only one genetic code. There is only one DNA. There sleeps a man, here stands a woman, but there is only one DNA. They are the same, this, this is so important. That’s what this message is about, so try to grasp it. We don’t have two here; we’ve got one. This came out of Adam; it was Adam and grew, but it’s still the same DNA, the same creature, the same substance, the same molecular structure, identical in every way as to composition. There is no difference. Do you follow me?
Adam is brought out of his deep sleep. The Hebrew is written here very powerfully and presents to us someone extremely excited. And Adam looks over at this glowing creature, and he cries out, Wow. Wow. Bone from my bone. Flesh from my flesh. An incredible mystery: there was a woman hidden inside of Adam that was Adam. I don’t know how to…if I qualify that in any way, I’ve lost something here. It is Adam. That which is Adam has been brought out of Adam. Stands there with the same molecular structure, the same genetic code. The same in every way. Could I…would it be any clearer if I said to you, in need of a transplant, they could swap kidneys? There would be no rejection. Do you understand? They’re the same. There is no difference, but now there are two of them. But that’s not true.
That’s not true. And this is just as mysterious.
You know, I don’t have to say they fall in love. They just…are in love. And those two glowing spheres meet, and then comes this incredible, that which was one, which is two, but is not two, but are one, now become one again. And the two return to what they were; they become one flesh. Their flesh is identical, and their bone is identical, and they are one. Did you follow this?
Now, I’m telling you: that is mysterious. That is incredibly mysterious, but I want to tell you something more. He was made in the image of his God. Well, he and he, he and she, this one who are one, who became two, who are still one, and who then became one, are now together in their natural habitat. And what is their natural habitat? Spirit and material, mass and non-mass, dimension and non-dimension. They flow through the two without any problem or hindrance. They and their habitat share something in common. The habitat is an interface and an overlapping of two realms. But can you follow this? Adam and his wife Eve are also an overlap of two realms. Can you follow that? Do you understand that? Their very being is an overlap of two realms. Spirit, soul, body; they are themselves an interface of two realms. They are a walking combination —a marriage of the two creations of God: the physical and the spiritual realms. Isn’t that incredible? Does that touch you? Does that say anything to you? Does that do anything to you? And that’s your grandpappy. Isn’t that marvelous?
I want you to look at him one more time and see him as a combination of two realms. Would you? And therefore, the place where he lives has to be a combination of two realms also. And there’s never been a creature like this before, and, oh, sad to say, there never has been another one like him since the fall. Oh, the fall. And what happened? The spirit went out.
The other realm went out. The other realm in him died and goes to the bottom of the category. He is now soul, flesh with death in him…a dead spirit. He is soul, body…and dead spirit. But after he has lived a while, and sin has infested his body, and the power of sin is greater than the power of the soul, and the body is no longer the body – it is the flesh. And with great strength, overcomes the soul. Aww saints, this is so tragic. The whole category has been inverted. He is now body, soul, and spirit. He started out spirit, soul, and body; now he is body, soul, and spirit. He is flesh and soul, and his spirit is virtually a corpse he drags around with him.
Now, he’s going to lose his habitat. Can you follow me? He can no longer live in this habitat because they no longer match, and there is sin in him. He only matches one realm. He’s just a little higher than the cattle now.
Now, I want you to watch what God does. I want you to look at the garden. We’re going to take a farewell look at it. Will you watch it as it begins to recede? God takes it away. I want you to look at it, would you? This is going to be your last chance to see it. What’s in it? There’s a tree in it. A real tree. This is an interface, folks. A real tree. There’s a river with water. It’s real water…REAL water. There was a man in it, and God was there. There is also, we are told, gold and pearl and stones that are very precious. Can you see them? Would you watch it disappear now? A tree, a river with clear water in it, gold and pearl and precious stones, and God; and man must leave. And the garden disappears into the other realm.
Here’s what happened. If you will notice, they had overlapped when man lived there, because Man’s habitat is an overlap as he is, a combination. Now God removes the garden, and He removes access to the other realm. Now watch carefully. And the two realms touch, but you can’t get from here to here. You can’t get from the physical realm to the spiritual realm. They are still touching; they touch at this very moment, saints. And God did an incredible thing. He put a portal there. Put a door there. Can you follow me? He put a door there, but that door only swings one way. You can’t go from here to there. You can go from there into our realm. But that door only goes that way. If you try to get this direction, you will meet Cherubim. Cherubim with a mighty, flashing, flaming, whirling sword. Dear friend, you cannot get into heavenly places. You cannot get into the other realm. You are now confined forever to the physical realm. Do you follow me? Are you with me? Are you clear?
There no longer exists upon this planet one who can put one foot on the earth and one spiritual realm. He no longer exists, and there is no way for the two realms to fellowship. And there is no habitat, and there is no human who is a combination of two realms. Now, this is sad. I mean, this is really, really sad. Terribly sad. A man who could see angels and walk into the other realm has ceased to exist, and we will never see his species again. And the species that was once man has biologically changed, and he is now and forever confined to this realm, a prisoner in space and time, forever of the material.
