Christ Placed Feet in Adam’s Steps—What love! What amazing condescension! The King of glory proposed to humble Himself to fallen humanity! He would place His feet in Adam’s steps. He would take man’s fallen nature, and engage to cope with the strong foe who triumphed over Adam. He would overcome Satan, and in thus doing He would open the way for the redemption from the disgrace of Adam’s failure and fall, of all those who would believe on Him (Redemption; or the Temptation of Christ in The Wilderness, 15).{1BC 1085.3}

Kristus satte foden i Adams fodspor.--Hvilken kærlighed! Hvilken forbavsende nedladenhed! Han ville gå i Adams fodspor. Han ville virkelig påtage sig menneskets faldne natur for at kæmpe imod den stærke fjende, som sejrede over Adam. Han ville overvinde Satan og på den måde for hver den, som tror, åbne vejen til udgang fra den unåde, Adams fald havde bragt os i. (Kristi genløsning eller fristelse, s. 15).
