Psa 89:48 What man is he that liveth, and shall not see death? shall he deliver his soul from the hand of the grave? Selah.
When this question was written the answer had not yet arrived. Jesus is the answer to a new kind of man whose soul he himself delivered from the grave. Jesus was in the form of a man, with a soul, but whose Spirit is God. God the Son created all there is with the Father and the Holy Spirit. The three are one God. They are one Holy Spiritual God.
Num 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
Contrasting God with the sons of Adam. God is not a man like they knew men, that would lie. Neither was he like a son of Adam that he should repent. The only men known at this time were the sons of Adam. Contrast this to the actions of the LORD. When God speaks, shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make good? Those who are in Christ today have his faithful nature in contrast to the sons of Adam who continue to lie and need to repent.
1Co 15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
The scriptures that show the purpose of this new kind of man, the Son of God, the last Adam are John 3:16 and 17.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Having trouble understanding? Ask Jesus for the infilling of the Holy Spirit of truth. The new Spirit filled man walks in the truth of God.
