Is it acceptable to interpret Adam as an allegory, not a historical person?

Summary

This sermon addresses the critical issue of believing the Genesis creation account as a literal, divine record rather than allegorical poetry. The speaker emphasizes that accepting Genesis 1 and 2 is foundational to believing the rest of Scripture, citing a study debunking claims of Genesis being Hebrew poetry and referencing the teachings of Jesus and Paul. The takeaway is that rejecting Genesis leads to a slippery slope of disbelief in other biblical accounts, urging listeners to fully trust God's eyewitness testimony.
