last Adam, Yahshua the Messiah (I Corinthians 15:45).

How do we know that this first bride was a type of the Bride of Christ? The scriptures
reveal a very clear correlation between Adam's bride and Christ's Bride. Immediately after

we are given details of the creation of Eve we are told “For this cause a man shall leave his

father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and they shall become one flesh”
(Genesis 2:24). This verse is quoted in the New Testament as the apostle Paul speaks of the

mystery of Christ and His Bride.

Ephesians 5:31-32
For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife;

and the two shall become one flesh. This mystery is great; but I am speaking with

reference to Christ and the church.

The scriptures also present a strong parallel between Adam and Yahshua. The first
Adam is presented as a type of Christ, who is called “the last Adam.”” It is fitting then that

the bride of the first Adam should be a type of the Bride of the last Adam, Yahshua the
Messiah.

I Corinthians 15:45-49

So also it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living soul." The last Adam
[Yahshua] became a life-giving spirit. However, the spiritual is not first, but the

natural; then the spiritual. The first man is from the earth, earthy; the second man

is from heaven. As is the earthy, so also are those who are earthy; and as is the
heavenly, so also are those who are heavenly. And just as we have borne the image

of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

God created a bride for the first Adam from a rib taken from Adam’s body. In similar
fashion He is even now creating a Bride for the last Adam, Yahshua the Messiah. This Bride

is not Christ’s entire body, even as Eve was not fashioned from Adam’s entire body. The

Bride of Christ will be fashioned from a remnant of Christ’s body. This remnant will be a
choice part, for being included in the Bride of Yahshua is a position of great honor.
