“We don’t like the idea of Adam as our representative. We tell ourselves we ought not to be held responsible for his mistake. But if God is indeed sovereign and good, then His choice of Adam for this role is the best choice. He was a justly chosen representative, despite the outcome. We can know that, had we been in that garden, the outcome would have been the same. Otherwise, we have indeed been dealt with unjustly in the matter of representation.”
