Is believing certain facts about Adam & Eve now an essential of the faith?
Does this mean the 5 Solas are now insufficient? Must one also believe that the DNA-laden bones of Adam & Eve were buried some 6,000 years ago to be saved?
When you read the Bible (especially Genesis), do you read it as if it's a news article or as rich instructive literature? Since Adam and Eve lived so long ago (perhaps billions of years ago), does it really matter if we call them real human beings, or, rather, did Moses include them so that, instead, they would teach us important biblical concepts?
Is our salvation predicated on Adam's and Eve's bones literally being buried somewhere or on Christ alone through faith by grace alone?
If the First Couple were vital for faith, why are Adam & Eve omitted from every creed?
