Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden tree. They became sinners seperated from God. God cast them out of the garden. He place two angels at the gate to keep them from eating of the tree of life and living forever.
If Adam and Eve would have eaten of the tree of life after they fell into sin, would they have lived forever in a sinful state?
I have heard preachers declare this from the pulpit.!

I've heard the same from a seminarty instructor.
ReplyDeleteI think if they had continuously eaten, perhaps they would have. The tree of life is just that, life. They would keep living on earth. I wonder if this happened, and they spent 6,000 years, if they would have learned their lesson by now, and lived pretty much sinless lives. After all, they would've been chastised so many times, and seen God provide so many times, that they would surely trust in Him daily and know better than to leave His will.
