Says Kingdom Hall? You couldn't possibly know that! Did you ever knowingly disobey God? Do you sin? Of course you do! Does that mean you are doomed? Or are you better than Adam and Eve?I honestly don't believe that Adam and Eve will get an resurrection.
Adam and Eve were perfect creatures when he created them, and since God’s command to them was explicit and understood by both, it is evident that their sinning was willful and was not excusable on the basis of any human weakness or imperfection. So, Gods words to them afterward offer no invitation to repentance. (Ge 3:16-24)
So Adam and Eve could not have benefited from the ransom. The Mosaic Law stated this principle regarding a willful murderer: “You must take no ransom for the soul of a murderer who is deserving to die.” (Numbers 35:31) Clearly, Adam and Eve deserved to die because they willingly and knowingly disobeyed God. They thereby gave up their prospect of everlasting life.
So forgiveness was never an option in this case. As perfect humans, Adam and Eve made a deliberate choice to reject Jehovah’s sovereignty and to accept the guidance of Satan instead. Not surprisingly, there was no sign of repentance on the part of the rebels.
The point is I believe Adam and Eve did experience the second death when they physically die, they will not get a resurrection.
