THE LAW GIVEN to ADAM, &
The COVENANT AGREEMENT GOD MADE with ADAM
in ADAM'S STATE of INNOCENCE;
shows God’s Moral Government of the World,
in which ADAM WAS THE FEDERAL HEAD
and REPRESENTATIVE of HIS POSTERITY;
THE ENTIRE HUMAN RACE.
...
The Manner in which God Governs Rational Creatures
is by a Law, as the Rule of their Obedience to Him,
and which is what we call God’s Moral Government
of the World.
...
Just as GOD Gave a Law to Angels, which some of the Angel's Kept,
and have been Confirmed in the State of Obedience to THE LAW GOD GAVE THE ANGELS;
...and other ANGELS BROKE THE LAW that GOD GAVE THE ANGELS,
which Plunged themselves into Destruction and Misery:
....so God Gave a Law to Adam,
and The Law God Gave to Adam was in the Form of a Covenant,
and
in THAT COVENANT AGREEMENT, Adam Stood as a Covenant Head
to all his Posterity in The ENTIRE HUMAN RACE.
...
It may be shown what that Law was in the Form of a Covenant,
and
that Adam was a Federal Head in The COVENANT AGREEMENT
GOD GAVE ADAM, as The REPRESENTATIVE of ALL MANKIND.
