Adam's Transgression

I read  many scriptures today and really felt as though they were speaking to me and thought it would be easy to write about them.   When I sat down tonight,  I decided those messages were just for me.  I thumbed through and found a verse with a note by it that intrigued me.

Mosiah 3:16 " ...for behold, as in Adam, or by nature,  they fall,  even so the blood of Christ atoneth for their sins."

My note says, "4-4-08  This is speaking of the spiritual death.  See 1 Cor 15:22  It speaks of the physical death."

1 Cor 15:22 is the more common verse that says,  "For as in Adam all  die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive."

I've made quite a distinction between the two parts of the atonement since my mission.  I'm not sure I really understood how separate, but equally important they were before that.  Christ overcame physical and spiritual death for us--not in that order.  First, he suffered for sin and pain and anguish before he died.  Then he came back into his lifeless body and made it possible for us to be resurrected.  We, on the other hand,  will be resurrected first and reunited with our Father second--if we repented and the atonement may be applied to us.  First,  last,  last,  first.  Whatever.  I have to say,  what good would one be without the other?Would I want to live forever if I couldn't be forgiven?  What good would it be to be clean and worthy if it was all over--no progression,  no afterlife?

I wonder if those two scriptures, were supposed to read differently or if through translation the one was altered.  I wonder if I'm supposed to see them the way I do.
