Ever wished you could have a “do-over”?  Maybe you missed the game-winning shot back in high school.  Maybe you flubbed a key job interview.  Maybe you said something that you deeply regret.  Or maybe you look back on your whole life and wish you could reboot the whole thing! God knew that the whole human race needed a new beginning, which is why He sent His Son.  Paul referred to Jesus as a new Adam, the representative of a new humanity.  Where the first Adam failed, the second Adam super-succeeded.  Through faith in the new Adam, our guilt and shame are covered so that we can begin to live new lives as members of Christ’s new humanity.
