Show me the Father

we are weak
but soon He will restore us to our
paradise

Why do that?
So you can possibly fall again?
So you can possibly die again?

Dream worlds are not substance. Faith is the substance of what shall be.
Sublimation and imagination can only try to escape, but you end up stuck.
Giving up our childish ways and accepting truth in the power of the Spirit goes beyond escapism.
IT OVERCOMES!
What shall be in eternity is infinitely greater than anything they had in the Garden.

To the one who overcomes, I will grant the right to sit with Me on My throne,
just as I overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne."
Rev 3:21

It does not say....

To the one who dreams and longs for what they imagine, I will grant the right to
sit with Me on My throne, just as I imagined and desired and sat down with My Father on His throne.


We must give up our childish ways ...

All of us had to do so if we were ever to mature in God's Word.

When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child;
but when I became a (wo)man, I put away childish things.
1 Cor 13:11

Adam and Eve were mere human bodies in the Garden.
Our bodies in the Resurrection shall be higher than angels!
For our bodies will be just like His glorious body!

Why keep longing for a cheap substitute that the Bible says will never happen again?

paradise was illegally stolen

and will be restored as the new earth
by the sons and Christ.

perhaps your meaning of paradise
is not mine ?
 
adam and eve were not mere
humans

the body we will have is our restored
original made by God glorified body.

human in eden context is not the same
as the current fleshbody context

Paradise was legally lost. Not stolen.

God set the criterion. Adam went against it.

Later, Jesus came as a man to show us that if a man walks by truth in the Spirit nothing can be stolen.

And?
To be fair to God?
Adam was given a command so simple?
That even a five year old could do it.
Not difficult to keep.

Add to that..
Adam had no sin nature until after the fall.
So, no one can blame his sin nature for saying it could not be resisted..

Any more excuses you might want to share with us?

Paradise was lost to the enemy.

we are still here separated from our land
and God.

this earth is not our land.

Your Home, if the Spirit bears witness to you, is Heaven.

But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ." Philippians 3:20
