The seeming paradox that GOD foreknew Adam & Eve would be disobedient,
yet GOD Who is All Powerful, All Knowing, and All seeing could have prevented it;
is one of the mysteries of (psychological sociological philosophy) , yes? Here is a devout questioning reflection.
~
Can it be disproven that since 1,000 years passes as a day to The Lord;(ref. Psalms);-
“For in Your sight a thousand years
are but a day that passes,
or a watch of the night.“
– Psalm 90:4 (emphasis author of this blog).
Corollaries:
“During the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the sea.”
– Matthew 14:25 (emphasis author of this blog).
“But beloved, do not let this one thing be hidden from you, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.” – 2 Peter 3:8
That The Lord, knowing our nature, that we must be taught having child-like simplicity,
to learn cheerfully to do Impartial Goodness Compassion for inner harmony – anyone who has the possibility of Salvation. (*note: God’s Loving Works of God’s Precepts, Laws, & Ordinances contain that God Always All-knowingly Desires to Save each one of us ending with to the thousandth generation.)
Only The Lord God Almighty Merits Just Endeavored Surety Understood always Sure The Way, The Truth, and The Life), Beloved Anointed One, Savior – for all Children gentlemen & ladies are like Adam & Eve.
Some rejoicing Biblical texts follow contain some holistic resolute compassionate reasons why we must endure a seeming long arduous journey with joy, hardships, & sorrow.
“Sing to the LORD, O you His saints,
and praise His holy name.
“For [God’s Perfect Correction] is fleeting,
but His favor lasts a lifetime.
Weeping may stay the night,
but joy comes in the morning.
“In prosperity I said,
‘I will never be shaken.’
O LORD, You favored me;
You made my mountain stand strong.”
-Psalm 30:4-7

>The source of the Biblical Texts are from Biblehub.com which is not the same as Biblegateway.com;- whereby the latter has access to the Cannon of Books(Ancient “Paged Scrolls”) dating back to the 4-5th centuries with 73 Books, the former has 66 Books, however, the Apocrypha has 7 Books, and sometimes parts of Daniel & other Biblical Texts not included in the Protestant Cannon. It is well known since the first century that there is One Holy and Apostolic Church. The differences are political in nature, so please, please, please do not be detracted as “God Loves The Little Children,” and all adults, of course.
Why couldn’t it be that there really was a Garden of Eden?
If this is the case, the the First Day is visited on every Day; Faith the Lord separating The Light of sentient human beings
listening to messengers like Michael “Who is like GOD?”
to be purified;
or
sentient human beings accepting The Darkness
with a full act of the free human decision to betray JESUS,
not just temporarily like Peter deny The Messiah Son of GOD,
One in Being with GOD, Only Divine Mediator between GOD
and humankind; **however*,
blaspheming The Holy Spirit, the only unforgivable sin,
listening to messengers like Lucifer (I will not serve, leaning upon
my own understanding, wise in my own eyes, son of the morning,
angel of darkness seducing as an angel of light as a descriptive
text of that dark Angel’s nature).
~
Can it be, that similar to GOD’s Way, Truth, & Life,
although we each have unearned
and earned suffering; in the end, each of our unearned sufferings,
will be like a bruised heel, as we are purified for final joy,
in the Beatific vision (ref. i.e. Matthew 5: The Sermon on the Mount)?
~
As challenges in the thankful participation
in The Beloved Anointed One,
(Christ, The Divine Anointing), in purified adoration
of GOD, right ‘worth-ship’ of GOD – in simply knowing necessary
work, be it any kind of work; protecting, provisions, music, art,
writing – after this journey on Earth, it will never be by the sweat
of our (older Children, Adolescents, Under-21, adults of all ages,
brows again.
Anguish, distress, extreme pain & war no more; every tear wiped away;
all things made new, living in exceeding Joy of The Lord,
forever. (ref. Revelation 21:4; Isaiah 25:8 and all Promises of God, which
are **Always* kept, i.e.
~
However, The Devil and His Angels along with those
who freely chose loss of Salvation, living in a tangible
sentient imaginary plane of existence similar to how
the square root of negative numbers are dealt with.
We being by JESUS, His Merits, His Divine Favor,
His Strength, impossible for humanity –
will never have our sentient consciousness
tricked from the antithesis of GOD sentient
imaginary plane of existence again.
~
The completion of Light separated form Darkness.
Psalm 110, and 149, and Matthew 25 will have
to be carried out, though. And in doing this journey,
guided by JESUS Seated On His Glorious Thrown,
and All Powerful Divine Office of Priest, Prophet,
King of kings, Lord of lords, – many Diadems;
with His Holy Angels – The 144,000 and those
of every nation, kindred, and language with robes
dipped in the Blood of The Lamb Written in The Book of Life;
will have prayer retreats and clean up our earthly obligations.
~
Something like this seems plausible, yes???
It seems as though someone more knowledgeable than I can
help those refuting Salvation by JESUS Only, using
the philosophical scientific arguments of (the hard problem of consciousness),
(the problem of evil), and (why would JESUS Ascend?)…. wouldn’t something
like this bolster the intellectual tradition of The Church to give faith
and reason discussion points? The scientist are coming up with
‘event horizon’ physics ideas that seem to bolster Einstein’s
idea of ‘dimension(s)’ 90 degrees from everything.
(i.e. black holes cannot be seen into, and the farthest reaches of the visible
universe as an event horizon that cannot be seen past.)
~
Even supposing things like we are a ‘computer simulation’ to beings higher than us,
as they erroneously claim we are higher than apes. Or the universe is a hologram.
They admit, there is something else. Cannot some see how callous
their suppositions are in the face of our innate sentient human
desire for the ideals of justice(diligently seeking every human
being coming into the world through the womb, their just due,
for the ordered common good??? Peace this Holy Saturday!
A heartfelt stay well, and be well wishes. Thank you for your time.

In the day that the Lord[a] God made the earth and the heavens, 5 when no plant of the field was yet in the earth and no herb of the field had yet sprung up—for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was no one to till the ground; 6 but a stream would rise from the earth, and water the whole face of the ground— 7 then the Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground,[b] and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being. 8 And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden, in the east; and there he put the man whom he had formed. 9 Out of the ground the Lord God made to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food, the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. 10 A river flows out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it divides and becomes four branches.

” Six Days of Creation and the Sabbath
1 In the beginning when God created[a] the heavens and the earth, 2 the earth was a formless void and darkness covered the face of the deep, while a wind from God[b] swept over the face of the waters. 3 Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. 4 And God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
6 And God said, “Let there be a dome in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.” 7 So God made the dome and separated the waters that were under the dome from the waters that were above the dome. And it was so. 8 God called the dome Sky. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day.
9 And God said, “Let the waters under the sky be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear.” And it was so. 10 God called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered together he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.”
“Sing to the LORD, O you His saints,
and praise His holy name.
“For [GOD’s] anger is fleeting,
but His favor lasts a lifetime.
Weeping may stay the night,
but joy comes in the morning.

You made my mountain stand strong.“

“For in Your sight a thousand years
are but a day that passes,
or a watch of the night.“

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
“Which of you, if [a child] asks for bread, will give him a stone? So if you who are [flawed] know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father;- ([yes God is The Holy SPIRIT, but also, is The Warrior Paternal with along-side seperate Perfect-maternal Power]);- in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!
“In everything, then, do to others as you would have them do to you. For this is the essence of the Law and the Prophets.
“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small;- ([Received Divine Favor for all due dilgence to cheerful do God’s Will with one another]as a comment of the meaning of ‘small’ also, ‘eye of an archway’ whereby a camel must be unloaded, many time through stooped , as an indication of each of our need of humility {ref. Matthew 19:24} ; also, God Gave All God’s Joy, Pain, and Sorrow for each of us to be able to Live on God’s Earth]);-
is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it.”
– Matthew 7:7-14

Please, as persons of God’s Good-will, read the following fairly ‘scary’ verses with Godly prudence, (i.e. watch the curb, the bus is just about upon us!).
Since it is ubiquitous that we each have an internal locus of ‘control,’ whereby Maslow’s ‘self-actualization’ certainly needs The One True God as source of self-control;- we must read, hear, heed the next Biblical text, as always with that in mind. Note that the greater meaning of ‘prophet’ is ‘witness,’ of a life-affirming self-giving testimony. Please
keep in mind that intended and unintended
falsity is diametrically opposed. Be very, very, very careful of ‘serving the truth,’ types of attitudes in life’s experience. We each *know as being in the image and likeness of God, that The(Strong One) Lord God is the *Only Judge of *All things.
“Beware of false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A Good Tree Cannot Bear Bad Fruit, And A Bad Tree Cannot Bear Good Fruit. (…) So then, by their fruit you will recognize them.
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of [The Only Benevolent One God] in Heaven [Above all Creation]. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles[or grandious claims of works.]?’
“Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness!’ (*note: everyone will be Holy, as The Word of God has God’s Promises which are always kept, however be careful of things such as eloquence in speech. Here is one example, “Speak to all the congregation of the people of;- (note: God Wrestles Rests in God’s Perfect Ways with each human being, as a meaning of Israel);-Israel and say to them, tYou shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am Holy.” – Leviticus 19:2
– Matthew 7:15-23

The House on the Rock [The House on The Promises of God]
[ref. also](Luke 6:46–49)
“Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain fell, the torrents raged, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because its foundation was on the rock.
26 But everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain fell, the torrents raged, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell—and great was its collapse!”
The Authority of Jesus
“When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were astonished at His teaching, 29 because He taught as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.”
– Matthew 7:24-29 ( source: https://biblehub.com/bsb/matthew/7.htm )

Source of the following, https://biblehub.com/bsb/matthew/9.htm).
“Jesus Calls Matthew
(Mark 2:13–17; Luke 5:27–32)
9 [“] As Jesus went on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him, and Matthew got up and followed Him.
10 Later, as Jesus was dining at Matthew’s house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with Him and His disciples. 11 When the Pharisees saw this, they asked His disciples, “Why does your Teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
12 On hearing this, Jesus said, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. 13But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’c For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
