Were Adam and Eve Really Historical Figures?

Challenges to the historicity of Adam in evangelical settings make it essential that we discuss the necessity of our first parents’ existence and origin according to the biblical record. Listen to Albert Mohler and Bryan Chapell discuss the importance of Adam to our understanding of humanity, our world, and salvation, as well as the “field and fences” of what should be considered consistent with Scripture.
