God CREATED Adam from dust.
God BEGAT Christ through a human woman.
Adam is God's creation. Christ is God's son.
This is why.

Read Luke 3:38, it says that Adam was son of god. Adam was called a son of God because his life came from God without human parents. Similarly, Jesus Christ is called the son of God, for his life came directly from God.

Adam is a created being; Christ is "One" with the Father. Christ is the Word: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." They are one in three. Christ is from the seed of God thru the Holy Spirit. Adam was made from the earth... Christ, God, always was and always will be ..."the Alpha and the Omega." Simply put: Christ is God in the flesh; Adam is simply a created physical being.

Technically a son of God is someone who follows God . The Son of God is Jesus . Do you see the difference ? Adam trangressed against God's wishes so he was punished .

I think because God did not father Adam, he just made him from clay. Nothing of God's makeup was put into Adam. I think.

this is a question that has given Christians a hard time. If you justify the son title for Jesus because he had a mother but no father, then what about Adam who had none?

"The fifth chapter of Genesis begins with a very important episode-the formal establishment of Adam's family organization. It begins with a book, a book of remembrance or genealogy, entitled "The Book of the Generations of Adam." It begins, "In the day the Gods set apart [bara-we are being very literal here] Adam in the likeness of the Gods [bi-dmuth elohim] he made him. Male and female he set them apart, and gave them a blessing, and gave them their names as Adam, in the day he set them apart." (See Genesis 5:1-3.) Next comes Seth in the proper line of Adam, and the patriarchal line follows. The preceding chapter tells of the division into Cainites and Sethites, and it is significant that the line of Cain is omitted from the genealogy of Adam. The book of Moses tells of multitudes of Adam's children born before Cain and Abel (Moses 5:12, 16). They had followed Satan by choice and were disqualified as sons of God. We read in Moses: "And unto thy brethren have I given commandment, that they should choose me, their Father - But behold, their sins shall be upon the heads of their fathers; Satan shall be their father." (Moses 7:33, 37.) Those who accepted the covenant were called sons of God and also the sons of Adam: "And this is the genealogy of the sons of Adam, who was the son of God." (Moses 6:22.) Only those qualify as Bene-Adam who are still in the covenant. Bene-Adam, however, is the normal Jewish word for human beings.

We ALL are children of God. Adam was created by God in the likeness of Him. He was intended to be without sin but he yielded to temptation so God created Jesus in the womb of Mary to die on the cross so that we could be forgiven for our sins and not condemned to hell.

God never called him his son. Just the man he first made.
