In (Romans 5:14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.)

we learn that Adam is the figure (type) of Jesus who was to come.  

In (2 Corinthians 11:1-3 Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me.

2  For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

3  But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.)

  there is concern about the local church as the bride of Christ in that the local church might be tempted as Eve was tempted by the serpent, the Devil.  We can learn about the local church as we study Eve who is a type of the local church.

 

1. The local church is  to one husband, Jesus.

(2 Corinthians 11:2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.)

2. The local church is to be presented to Jesus as a chaste .  

(2 Corinthians 11:2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.)

3. The local church is in danger of being corrupted by false teachers as  was

tempted by the serpent.  

(2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.)

Eve is a type of the local church.

How Eve was created teaches us about the creation of the local church.

4. In order for Eve to be created, Adam was put into a deep .  

(Genesis 2:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;)

5. Sleep is symbolic of .  

(John 11:11-14 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.

12  Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.

13  Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.

14  Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.)

6. Jesus  on the cross.  

(John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.)

7. God took a rib from the  of Adam.  

(Genesis 2:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;)

8. One of the soldiers with a spear pierced the  of Jesus.  

(John 19:34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.)

9. God made Eve with the rib he took from the  of Adam.  

(Genesis 2:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.)

10. God made the local church from the   and   that came from

      the  of Jesus.  

(John 19:34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.)

11. Which came first from the side of Jesus, water or blood?    

(John 19:34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.) 

12. To be a member of the local church first we must be born again, justified, by

      the  of Jesus.  

(Romans 5:9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.)

13. Then we must be  by the local church.  

(Matthew 28:18-20 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

19  Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20  Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.)

14. Baptism is the ordinance of the local church, not the preacher.  "For Christ

sent me  to baptize, but to preach the gospel."  

(1 Corinthians 1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.)

15. Baptism identifies you with the teachings of the local church that baptized you.

A.   At Ephesus Paul found certain  (believers).

(Acts 19:1 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,)

B.    They did not know about the   .

(Acts 19:2 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.)

 C. To know what they had been taught, Paul wanted to know what

            they had.  

(Acts 19:3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism.)

D.   These believers were identified by baptism with  teachings.

 

(Acts 19:3-4 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism.

4  Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.)

 E. When these believers wanted to change their beliefs they were

           again to be identified with the new local church.  

(Acts 19:5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)

16. Baptism is for the saved only.

 A. The eunuch wanted to be baptized, but before he could, Philip wanted to know

           if he  that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.  

(Acts 8:37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.)

 B. After that Philip knew that the eunuch was saved then he  

     him.  

(Acts 8:38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.)

17. After Eve was created, Adam said this is now  of my bones,

and  of my flesh:  

(Genesis 2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.)

18. After the local church was created, the Bible states that we are members

of his body, of his , of his .  

(Ephesians 5:30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.)

19. Adam said that a man shall leave his father, and mother, and shall cleave

unto his : and they shall be  flesh.  

(Genesis 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.)

20. "For this cause shall a man leave his father, and mother, and shall be

      joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.  This is a great

: but I speak concerning  and the ."

(Ephesian 5:31-32 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

32  This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.)

21. After Adam and Eve had sinned, they tried to cover their sins with

        .  

(Genesis 3:7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.)

22. Later God made coats of  to cover them.  

(Genesis 3:21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them.)

23. For God to cover Adam and Eve with skins, the life of an innocent

 had to be taken,  was shed.  

24. Without the shedding of blood there is no  of sins.  

(Hebrews 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.)

25. God will clothe us

A.   With the  of salvation.  

(Isaiah 61:10 I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.)

B.    With the  of righteousness.  

(Isaiah 61:10 I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.)

26. We are not to have our own , but the

righteousness of .  

(Philippians 3:9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.)
