This list came about as a result of a discussion with a member of the organization known as "Jehovah's Witnesses." This gentleman was adamant that the death of Jesus bought back that which Adam had, i.e., the opportunity to live forever in paradise on earth.

He was just as adamant that this did NOT INCLUDE ADAM! He went so far as to claim that if Adam were to have a resurrection then the plan of God was a failure. Clearly we are in disagreement on this point.

This discussion prompted me to search the Watch Tower magazine for references to discover how many times it described Jesus as giving his life to redeem or purchase "Adam and his race."

We then did the same search in the Studies in the Scriptures.
