Page 33 - The Remnant Bride

The Deep Sleep of Adam

I n the formation of Eve we see many parallels to the formation of the Bride of Christ. One
of the very striking parallels between these two brides is that they are both taken from a

body that has been cast into a deep sleep. To examine this, let us begin with the description
of Eve as she is removed from the body of Adam.

Genesis 2:21-23

So Yahweh God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then He took
one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh at that place. And Yahweh God fashioned into

a woman the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man. And
the man said, "This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall be

called woman, because she was taken out of Man."

In this passage we see described the formation of the bride of the first Adam. The
primary things I want you to note in this description are: first, a deep sleep came upon

Adam; second, a separation occurred in the body of Adam that resulted in a bride being
formed. A remnant was removed from his sleeping body to form his bride.

In this very hour in which we live such a separation is taking place. One of the
predominant scriptures being proclaimed by prophets and teachers of God in this hour is

from the book of Revelation where God’s saints are commanded to come out of the great
harlot which typifies the apostate church of our day.

Revelation 18:4

“Come out of her, my people, that you may not participate in her sins and that you
may not receive of her plagues...”

Now, concerning that which we see in type in the deep sleep that came upon Adam,

we see spoken of by Paul in reference to the body of the Last Adam, Yahshua the Messiah.
Paul indicated that a similar deep sleep would come upon the body of Christ prior to the

Bride of Christ being removed from it.
Paul spoke to the Thessalonian believers and said that those who were afflicting them
