Adam did not possess Life Eternal in the beginning, but he had natural creature life, so the elect did not have Eternal Life in their natural head adam, even before they sinned in him in the beginning, for Eternal Life does not and cannot die ! The record is that God hath given to us [The Church] Eternal Life, and this Life which is Eternal is in His Son 1 Jn 5:11
11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
There is no inspired record of God that anyone was given Eternal Life in adam !
This Eternal Life the Church receives was always with the Father 1 Jn 1:1-2
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us )
Again, it was never in adam in his beginning, it was with Christ the Mediator before adam was made, yes in Christ the Mediator Head of the Election of Grace. The breath that God breathed into Adam's nostrils, did not give him Eternal Life, but by it, man became a living soul Gen 2:7
