Why didn't God forgive Adam and Eve?
If God sent his only son to die on the cross for the Forgiveness of our sins, then why didn't God just forgive Adam and Eve? And save himself the trouble of having his son die on the cross.

The wage of sin is death. They had to die. But Jesus took their sins and punishment on his own shoulders and if we have faith in him, we will live forever in heaven.

@Carazaa If you lived forever, what would you eat and do for amusement? Where would you go? A trillion years being in the same place should drive anyone nuts. Would you be happy after 50 trillion years?

@Carazaa man was not created to go to heaven. Humans were created to live forever on the earth. Some,144,000, will be privileged to go to heaven but the vast majority of obedient mankind will live forever on the earth which is God's original purpose from the beginning. (Psalm 37:10-11, and Psalm 37:29, Revelation 14:3, Revelation 5:10).

@Carazaa those who are not doing God’s wiil and following in His Son's footsteps definitely will not go to heaven. BTW what are the ones who go to heaven gonna be doing when they get there?

@seotelkniwt "And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years." Rev 20:4

@Carazaa When did the heads get their bodies back? Or did the heads just sit on a table for a thousand years?
