There are no thorns or thistles in my Garden of Eden that I carry around inside of me. Perhaps there is in your Garden of Eden, only you can know that.

All of creation fell. If you have done any gardening at all, then you will know what a struggle it can be to keep plants healthy.

If you wish to belittle what God has created, that is your problem. I choose not to.
I do not have the problem with God things with thorns and thistles that you seem to. I personaly like blackberries and have some in my garden, not to mention cucumbers, melons, pumpkins, all of which have sharp pointy thorns on them.

If the earth and climat eis right and the right natural ressources here, no plant will have a hard time to keep alive. It all is a matter of that. Of course, palm tress won´t really grow in Northern Europe, but then they evolved on a place, where it seldim gets that cold if at all. Plant the right plants in the right earth and give them thhe natural ressources they need and you have no struggle in keeping them alive.

Not to be Mr Technical here......but GEN 2:9.....2:17 says "tree of the knowledge of good and evil"...not sin and death...!
Sin and Death.... would describe the result of eating from the tree...!

Eph replies...
This is correct....The question is...? Did he live 130 yrs...counting from the time he FELL...or from the time he was created by God from the dust of the earth..Because prior to his fall..He didn't age..or die..or get old..!
JR says..
We know that Adam was out of the garden by the time he was 130 years old. Most likely he spent his first 100 years in the garden.
Eph writes...
Clearly speculation on your part...Why not guess at 50 yrs..or 37 yrs..? JR...""most likely"" he could have lived in the garden 50 billion yrs...IF we want to guess at it...
Scripturally "all the days" of Adam...were ...930 yrs...Gen 5:5 says He lived 930 yrs...My only point is How long did he live before the fall...He began to age and die the moment he ate from the tree...against the warning God gave him about doing it...NOT before...!
In either case....I can't wait to meet him..!

The 120 yrs....mentioned in GEN 6:3...was the amount of time God was going to give to Noah to build the ark...Notice it says "yet" his days shall be...God was giving mankind 120 yrs to repent..and when Noah was done building the ark...time was UP...!

Eph replies...
JR7...I stick with the Biblical account on all this...So this is were we have to part company on this subject...!
Since the monitors around here have told me I'm "thin ice"... close to being banned..because I don't show christian love...and understanding to others who have some off the wall views....All I can say is....!
Have a nice day...!
