courtesy of www.freeimages.com Peter Enns is an author and seminary professor. He believes in theistic evolution, i.e. that God used the process of evolution to "create" life on Earth. Because he believes in human evolution, he is sure that the Apostle Paul got it wrong about Adam being the first human. I have provided the transcript of the video below along with my comments. Video Transcription Dr. Enns' words are in red and my comments are in black . One approach that is helpful to me is that I think Paul certainly assumed that Adam was a person and the progenitor of the human race. I would expect nothing less from Paul, being a first century man. And again, God speaks in ways and uses categories that are available to human beings at that time. I don't expect Paul to have had a conversation with Francis Collins about the Genome Project and how common descent is essentially assured scientifically. I don't expect him to understand that.
