"Sadler is an astute biblical theologian. He grasps the two-Adam architecture of the biblical narrative. Union with Adam is the root of original sin; regeneration into Christ, the Second Adam, is the answer. Regeneration is understood by Sadler primarily as an objective, redemptive-historical reality, synonymous with the kingdom of God.
...
Sadler situates his understanding of election within a larger doctrine of union with Christ, since Christ himself is preeminently the Elect One. Individual election in Christ is realized and fulfilled in the context of the corporately elect community." - Reverend Rich Lusk, from the introduction to Sadler's The Second Adam and The New Birth, pages vi and vii
