In Genesis 2 when God is instructing Adam that he can't eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil he says if you eat from the tree "you shall surely die" (Verse 17). So how come they didn't die when they ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil as God said they would?
They died immediately according to God: Adam was not a physical body, He was to be eternal, a living being in fellowship with God. We lack wisdom but don't think the physical was meant to be eternal.
Look as some examples "Lazarus is sleeping," Lazarus was dead according to us.
Lazarus was a friend Jesus so a friend of God, He was not dead according to God.
Dearth is separation from the Love of God
Another example that few understand is Jesus was separated fro the Father in the Garden of Gethsemane.
The day of His suffering in the body, also considered in hell. Most cant wrap their minds around that: cant grasp that.
Yet it's the only way His death ads up to 3 evening and morning.
Adan Chose to live for himself and make His wife his god, to eat what she gave him: he was not deceived, the woman was.
It had to happen in other for us to inherit a kingdom that cant be shaken: "Without Love I am nothing."
If something can become more important to you than God: God can't save nothing. Nothing would be where hell is.
Hopefully this is written with enough hidden meaning.
"It's the glory of God to conceal a mater and the glory of kings to search it out."
