Shawn on the call in hour said a few things. It depends on their level of biblical knowledge. If they’re coming from a lot of eschatological understanding, then it’s one thing. But if they are not, then perhaps just reading fresh and not putting fulfillment at the forefront – perhaps it’ll just show itself as discussion goes on!

Shawn’s answer in the call in hour essentially stated that it was always that they had access to God, AND God had access to them. Once they fell and were kicked out of the garden, God could still access them, but there wasn’t the opportunity for the reverse.

We discussed this in the call in this week! all these questions are awesome.

Will do!

This is an AWESOME question. We will bring it up on our call in show if that’s okay with you? I can also attempt to give an answer here in writing too – give me a minute to get back to it. But I love it, and think there is a VERY important role in the decisions we make in our lives on this earth, and that they very much have consequences… but…
