I do not believe that Adam was created saved... he was of the natural world and needed to eat of the tree of life in order to attain to life ever after, and he did not do that.
salvation is only needed after the fall of man look how man ( the male and female ) impact everything
just by doing what God told them not to do
Gods covenant with Adam and Eve
“
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
And
God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and
subdue it: and
have dominion over the fish of the
sea, and over the fowl of the
air, and over
every living thing that moveth
upon the earth.
And God said,
Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon
the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
And( he even covenants with the other creatures here )
to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat:
and it was so.
And
God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.”
Genesis 1:27-31 KJV
these are all promises we find in Christ to be redeemed unto a new creation created in the image of our creator like Adam and ever we’re created in his image both make and female
He has only blessed them and called them to be fruitful same thing the gospel calls us to do and be blessed
He’s given the the earth as home , the same thing Christian’s are promised inheritance of a new earth where God dwells among us and
where we eat from the tree of life freely
Reconciled , restored , redeemed , renewed ect these terms have meaning that we’re being brought back to what God actually created us to be before mankind fell into sin and death through Adam
adam was free to eat of the tree of life already he had nothing to be saved from is the idea . Salvstion is from what the devil did and then Adam and Eve fell into his snare in the beginning and became the perpetrators of his evil plan to kill mankind using Gods first commandment meant to keep them safe from death by causing them to doubt and break the commandment and follow satans promptings
It’s the same thing we Christian’s face when we are tempted we’ve heard the gospel the truth and then Satan tries to get that from our faith and give us a grenade that leads astray instead
what adam did bringing sin and death is what we need to be saved from he was created safe and sound and placed in Eden with God , it was thier transgression of what God said would bring death that caused the problem we need to be saved from
all adam had to do was believe the lords word who was there with him like he’ll be with us in the new creation walking amongst us as a father and his children no more sin and no more death but as if Adam had never sold us into sin
“For I ( mankind ) was
alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.( thou shalt not eat the fruit you’ll surely die )
And
the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death. For
sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.”
Romans 7:9-11 KJV
“O wretched man that I am!
who shall deliver me from the body of this death?”
Romans 7:24 KJV
This part was never the Will of God his Will was what he said not to eat the fruit and be freely eating the fruit of life fellowshipping with Gods presence in Eden
“And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.”
Genesis 6:5-7 KJV
think of what this is saying here God is repenting for what his creation has become it is t what he willed so much to the point he decides to destroy them all in repentance over even creating them in earth.
We can see in this that truly we mankind now are a fragment of what we are actually created to be in Gods plan for the earth without sin and death
even after man sinned and then death
came upon mankind they still lived nearly a thousand year lifespans even after they had been cursed to death for sin but then he limits man to a hundred twenty years because
his spirit won’t abide with them because they also are flesh
now the New Testament is talking about the same situation we’re in Gods spirit abiding with us ole we are in the flesh
“And the LORD said,
My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.”
Genesis 6:3 KJV
“For
they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh;
but
they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.”
Romans 8:5 KJV
“For
he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption;
but he that
soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.”
Galatians 6:8
“For
the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.”
Galatians 5:17 KJV
God didn’t create that problem satans lie andmankinds sin created that problem That we need salvation from they like a chrirtoan had the choice to dwell with the lord and live freely doing this
“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To
him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.”
Revelation 2:7 KJV
adam was given that freely and handed everything an inheritance when man was created then Our own corruption despite Gods provisions corrupted his entire creation and so we need anew one without sin
“Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a
new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.”
2 Peter 3:13 KJV
were promised what Adam and Eve were given when created only next time we’re going to be in Christs image having overcome the world knowing what temptation is and that sin is certain death and faith in God is certain life forever
