"Adam, the First Man is a Shell." (There are Two Creations of Man).  

1 Corinthians 15:

it is written: “The first man Adam
became a living being”[f]; the last
Adam, a life-giving spirit.
46 The spiritual did not come first,
but the natural, and after that the spiritual.
47 The first man was of the dust of
the earth; the second man is of heaven. 
48 As was the earthly man, so are those
who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly
man, so also are those who are of heaven. 
49 And just as we have borne the image
of the earthly man, so shall we[g] bear the
image of the heavenly man.

I have been given a
body by the Creator

From the dust of the
earth it has been made

With the elements of
the planet and stars
we have been born

The beginning of the
process is this to 
bring us to God

But a breath from the,
"Eternal One," is being
blown that stirs within
us a new life wherein
we become 
disassociated with the
elements of the earth

And because of this
we do moan

A new desire within
us begins to form 
causing us to yearn
to be clothed, not
with the earth but
the Eternal likeness
of a Son of God

For this is a mystery
that the first man,
"Adam," is not merely
ones name
But a nature that has
come upon every 
human

An identity if you
will that has to be
mortified so that
the second man:
the, "Lord from
Heaven," intended
now by our Father
can within us 
supersede all
things and come
to life
