Do you think they would've looked ageless like in lord of the rings? I'm not comparing reality with fiction, but thats the best way to understand it.
They looked perfect and had perfect everything including intelligence. The World was Perfect too. And everything radiated light, the same light that God created on day 1, which is different to sun light that was made on day 4. Adam and Eve radiated the same supernatural light that our Lord radiates. They could not see their nakedness through this light until the fall and then their eyes could see their naked selves. That light will return to Earth when God makes a new Heaven and a new Earth.

Edit: To answer your question yes they looked ageless.

So they weren't naked because they had a light covering? Is that speculation bibical?

What about them being told to be fruitful and multiply?

They did not wear clothes till God made some for them from a Ram. This was the first sacrificial offering to cover the shame of sin. Adam was created with the light covering. Everything radiated light the trees, flowers, animals, even the earth from which Adam was originally made.

Then God said for them to get lost and get

So it was similar to how God's light clothes people in Heaven?

Yes and also how we will be clothed on the new Earth. Also the 144,000 will have this light during the millennial Reign.

So it isn't actual white robe?
Yes the light also looks like clothing too. It is supernatural and is difficult for us to understand from our Earthly fallen 'rational' physical minds.

That's right. If Satan stayed good then there would be no temptation. He is primarily to blame.

Wasn't the tree of knowledge of good and evil already there? I was talking to a guy at church weeks ago who said sin may have been chosen regardless of Satan. Do you disagree with him?

Yes both trees were in the Garden there with them. Sin was always going to come into the World, it was inevitable. If that's what your friend meant?

What makes you think it would've happened anyway if lucifer never fell? They would have tempted each other?

Do you think people were originally meant to be immortal?

People were created with the Freewill to live or die,to sin or to obey God.
We know through schripture Christ was the Lamb that was slain before the foundation of the world.
Even though God gave us freewill He knew man could not remain obedient forever.

There are two people that I know of that never encountered death on earth,one was Enoch and the other Elijah.
We're they sinless ?
I doubt it because Jesus Christ was the only man to remain sinless,for our sake God became flesh.
Free will allowed sin into the World,if man was not given Freewill and only performed God's will ,then man would not have been made in the image of God.
After the fall and Adam and Eve took from the tree of knowledge God placed gaurds on the entrance to the Garden.
If after they were enlightened by knowledge, they would have eaten of the tree of life this would have made them immortals and like God's.
The Bible uses the term as God's.

As Christians we are immortal we only die in body not our Spirit.
Our time on this earth is short, not even a dot compared to our future in God's kingdom.
We are not temporal beings we are eternal by design.
We can refuse God's grace and die,satan and a third of the beings in Heaven did just that.
God gave us purpose by giving us freewill,our purpose is to accept his plan for salvation.
Salvation is God's will for all mankind ,but some will suffer eternal seperation from God due to their hardened hearts.

We would never know the gift and goodness of God if we were not given a choice to live or die.
Satan's purpose is to steal kill and destroy,but only for a season,then he will be destroyed himself.
How would we ever know right from wrong if not given a choice?

Yet our mistakes are forgiven through Christ.
Satan has no choice and will be cast into the lake of fire.
Why you may ask ?
Satan knew God our Father the Alpha and Omega face to face ,much more than man and he chose to rebel he is with out excuse.

Can you give scriptural support for the sentence above in red.

Try another approach as one can see knowledge can not explain spiritual principalities. We try to label the mind of God through knowledge (This means me too, lol) in an attempt to rule it (our nature). Once we have a name to anything, we rule it through time and knowledge of it through studying it. Your OP deals in hypotheticals which can not be answered in truth my friend. It is not healthy to build beliefs on what if's. Remember our childhood and take life on faith as we did as a child.

In hopes this edifies.

do you think what ifs are a waste of time? It is one thing to ask about the past and speculation regarding anything, but to me what ifs are almost silly.

Brother be not offended by this formats lack of meekness that was my intent. I am not talking loud or in an inflammatory nature but this format can not express that to you . All I am saying is based on the OP no man can talk in "truth" to it which leaves what ifs, right?. I do it too brother and that's why I recognize it. God will give you knowledge of a different sort when asked with purity of heart. Be well in your endeavors , my friend.
