Protoevangelium Religion
Protoevangelium, this word is usually lost in translation, but the “first gospel” is what starts the bible and is most important to prepare for what is to come. While Jesus is often considered as the new Adam, Mary is the new Eve. Both set of people are the firsts of their kind, they came into this world and changed it, either for the better or worse. Mary and Jesus came to the world to reverse the actions of Adam and Eve. God gave them special missions, for Mary and Eve it was to be important mothers, and for Jesus and Adam they were important in guiding the herd in the right direction, and to call each one by their name.

Adam was the first man ever created, he was brought to life by the hand of God “...then the Lord God formed man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life” (Gen 2:7). Jesus was brought into this world by a miracle also, He was born to the virgin Mary. Adam was put on Earth to be in charge of every living thing, while Christ came down to save every person that lived. Adam named all the animals which roamed the Earth, while Christ calls each one of us by name. Adam is the shepherd of the animals, while we should follow the good shepherd, Christ, to lead us in the right direction to return back to him. Jesus is the obedient Son of the Father because He obeyed God’s commands even to the point of death, to save the whole world. Adam however is the disobedient son who couldn't follow one rule that God had asked him and his wife to follow, Adam along with his wife Eve ate of the tree of knowledge in the center of the garden. Adam and Jesus were both tempted, Adam with the fruit to gain all knowledge and Jesus when the devil approaches Him on a cliff and offers to give Him all in the world, “Then Jesus was lead up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil” (Mt 4:1), the difference is that Adam gives into his temptations, while Jesus knows to resist, and that He would not give in the the devil's
