They 'existed' long before jesus was born, so did they and all other humans wind up in hell until the

concept of religion was invented?

Or is the bible just literature or an allegory, created by the fertile imaginations of men, seeking rewards

of money or worship from the gullible?

No, the promise of Jesus was given in Genesis 3. Old Testament Saints looked forward to the coming of Jesus. People now look back on his having come.

They are reprobate.
It's hopeless without regeneration.
But...with God, all things are possible, even the salvation of these "folks"..
Pray for them. They're hopeless.

American, I happen to believe that much of Genesis is allegory. While I am a man of faith, I am also a person that believes that the best way to discover t***h is through science. Modern science believes in evolution, not any kind of abra cacabra. Carbon dating methods and dug up fossils are the only answer I can believe. They clearly show that man evolved from earlier kinds of humans like Lucy.

They're still in Purgatory running a B&B. I spoke to Adam yesterday when I made a reservation, he says they're both doing well and thanked me for asking.

One would think after being here three years, you would know this type of thread belongs in the Faith, Religion, Spirituality section of OPP.

Jesus gives the answer to this in His parable of the sheep and goats. To paraphrase, when judgement day comes, those with no knowledge of Jesus will ask, 'Lord, when did we see you and do these things for you, or fail to do these things for you?'

And Jesus will answer, 'The way that you have treated others is the way that you have treated me. '

allegory /ăl′ĭ-gôr″ē/
noun: The representation of abstract ideas or principles by characters, figures, or events in narrative, dramatic, or pictorial form.

The book of Genesis confirms the name Yahweh, the Elohim or Mighty One, as represented by the Tetragrammaton, yod-hay-waw-hay. It shows that from the beginning grace was in existence, even as the early patriarchs were obedient to Yahweh's laws. Genesis is a prophetic book that reveals many end-time prophesies, including the Messiah's ultimate victory over Satan, and the fate of the 12 tribes of Israel.

Return to the God Hypothesis: Three Scientific Discoveries that Reveal the Mind behind the Universe
The New York Times bestselling author of Darwin’s Doubt presents groundbreaking scientific evidence of the existence of God, based on breakthroughs in physics, cosmology, and biology.

Beginning in the late 19th century, many intellectuals began to insist that scientific knowledge conflicts with traditional theistic belief — that science and belief in God are “at war.” Philosopher of science Stephen Meyer challenges this view by examining three scientific discoveries with decidedly theistic implications. Building on the case for the intelligent design of life that he developed in Signature in the Cell and Darwin’s Doubt, Meyer demonstrates how discoveries in cosmology and physics coupled with those in biology help to establish the identity of the designing intelligence behind life and the universe.

Meyer argues that theism — with its affirmation of a transcendent, intelligent and active creator — best explains the evidence we have concerning biological and cosmological origins. Previously Meyer refrained from attempting to answer questions about “who” might have designed life. Now he provides an evidence-based answer to perhaps the ultimate mystery of the universe. In so doing, he reveals a stunning conclusion: the data support not just the existence of an intelligent designer of some kind — but the existence of a personal God.

Did Adam and Eve repent ? Were they given the chance ?...if not, will they be given the chance ? We don't have all the answers, but some day we'll be able to ask that question to the one who can answer it.
I have a question too; do you think Satan will ever ask forgiveness for what he has done ?!?!

I am sure they repented and asked God to forgive them. When they realized they were naked, they made coverings for themselves. They are more than likely in Abraham’s Bosom, waiting for the rapture.

Satan will never repent. If you reject Christ, sin against the Holy Spirit, without asking forgiveness, you are hell bound.
