Yahweh created Himself. Creation was one with Yahweh, and so, when Adam sinned and caused the world to die, so did He.
In fact, Yahweh placed His life in Adam’s hands, literally. This is the ultimate faith. For when Yahweh did so, He knew that Adam could and would kill Him, but He also had the faith that He would be able to perform resurrection.
Yahweh, in some way, never separated Himself from creation. What creation went through, Yahweh went through. When Adam, by sin, killed creation, he might as well have taken a knife and murdered Yahweh as well. So that Yahshua dying for creation was not an event that took place four thousand years after the fall of man, but was a simultaneous occurrence that only physically manifested years later on a cross in Israel.
It was creation that separated itself from Yahweh, not at the point of death, but at the point of resurrection. For all have died, but not all have yet been resurrected. When Yahweh allowed Himself to fully bind with creation, He knew it would be the only way to keep creation whole, to give it any chance of survival. For He knew that when He resurrected, so would all of creation that was bound to Him. And so, it truly was ultimate faith, for Yahweh had enough faith not only to resurrect Himself, but to resurrect us all.
