I do not consider these earthly bodies as being completely evil, but they do often act as
torture chambers which would be inconstant with Paradise. I therefore contend that their bodies in Paradise must have been glorified bodies, incapable of pain and suffering.
I do not really expect a definitive answer because this seems to be a gray area that no mortal man can answer for certain, but it is a thoughtful question, I think, and cast doubts that these earthly bodies are purely good.
LOVE!
Hello Robert;
Well, the
Bible has answers to your question.
There are many things that we can *know *from the Bible text in Genesis. Adam and Eve did come from the earth, Adam was made from the earth, but God blew a spiritual supernatural life into him and into Eve.
(we can understand this more by picturing what we can make out of clay, for example, imagine the clay sculpture of a man, yet he is not animated and has no life force, so God indeed put supernatural life and abilities into Adam, comparing him to a clay sculpture, which describes what God would have had,
just in forming Adam from the earth.)
Also, we know that God ‘crowned’ Adam and Eve with the Glory of God. This was in such a form that the two of them, inside this Glory, were not naked, they were ‘covered’ by it.
Some have scholared to discover from other places in the Scripture that this was a
‘garment of light’, that covered them, individually.
We can also know that Adam possessed a unique brain power. He named every living thing. (organization to give each an individual name, differentiate, and remember what was what. We do not know that Adam could write anything down, so he must have remembered all of the individual names.)Today, only computers could accomplish this.
Because science has told us that we have much more brain power than any of us actually uses, ie. we use less than 20 % of our brain’s ability,…it is reasonable to assume that ‘Before the fall’, A&Eve may have had access to the use of
all of their brain power.
Other things that science has revealed to us about the pre fall situation come from the time of the great flood of Noah. Apparently some science believes that the pounds per square inch of air pressure on the earth today, is different from what it was before the flood of Noah. Changes occurred, they believe, even in the tilt of the earth’s axis,…
that effected life on earth in many ways.
There is a study here to be looked into that shows life on earth pre fall even may have been equivalent to what occurs inside a bariatric chamber now. This may account
for how Adam and Eve’s bodies could have been without sicknesses and injuries to their bodies could have healed much more expediently than in our current atmospheric pressure system.
These studies have been looked into by real science, not my imagination, and have many
reasons and proofs in their findings.
From this info. they were able to deduce that pre fall Adam and Eve may have experienced
much higher levels of physical prowess in running, jumping, etc. than we do today,…
ie they may have been able to run ‘with fast moving animals, and keep pace’., according to differences in the way their lungs would process air, etc. in a diff. atmospheric pressure.
We also know that they lived llllooooooonnnng lives, in the past, Adam was 900 plus years old, which compared to today, was extraordinary. So were the lives of people after him, hundreds of years in length. Although they lost in the fall, they still maintained some things, perhaps it was just the idea that no one told them they could only live to 70 years or 80 years, (which is from the lament of Moses in scripture, about people who died young in the wilderness because they Refused to go into the promised land)
There is a LOT more than what I have written here.
So summing up what I have written here, Adam and Eve seemed to be able to use all of their brain power, …they had super brains,…they seemed to have been able to ‘run with the fastest of the animals and keep pace’, because of lung capability oweing to the diff. in atmospheric pressure,…(there is science behind this so don’t criticize) and
they were ‘crowned with the Glory of God’ in a way that it seemed to them they had clothes
on, their naked bodies were ‘covered with it’, because when it was removed, they were immediately aware that they were then naked. This clothing was thought to be ‘garments of light’ deduced from other places in scripture where the Glory of the Lord is described.
They also have the ability to live long, hundreds of years,…because even after the fall,
they lived hundreds of years, and we know at the fall, ‘death’ first came into being as part of the fall and removal of the Blessing and Glory of God.
From the science of the ‘bariatric type of atmosphere’ we also know that injuries to their bodies would have healed in acceleration, maybe immediately after they happened.
Perhaps under the glory injuries never happened.
The atmospheric changes are attributed to what occurred on the earth in the pre-rain situation. Recall, in the text, NO RAIN HAD PREVIOUSLY OCCURED. Adam and Eve were watered only by dew.
Science speculates that the earth was in a kind of terrarium form as compared to now, where rain never fell, but the earth was watered only by dew, which is what the bible says, no rain before the flood.
Read the text, you will discover these things are written there.
there is much more even than this…
see my picture below, me jumping for joy, perhaps when Eve jumped, she may have cleared a small tree or two,…oweing to differences in conditions that she may have had compared to what we now have,…(hence the fascination we now have with trampolines,…etc) smile
