PRESIDENT'S ESSAY
Son or Servant?
POSTED
September 28, 2010

Was Adam created Son or Servant?  Is the primary relationship of Yahweh to Adam Lord or Father?

Recognizing that Adam was placed in a stoicheic situation from his creation cuts through the opposition.

Adam is created a son.  That’s what it means to be in the image and likeness of God.  He is a created counterpart to the Image.

Yet, in the stoicheic conditions of the garden, he was a minor son who did not differ from a slave though he was owner of everything, a son under guardians and managers until the time appointed by the Father.
