Just thinking about this.........What if we are the test humans.......say there are other humans out there way off in another universe who live in like the Garden of Eden who have not had sin touch them in any way and are watching us and are like,,this is what could happen to us if we were to disobey in any way.......What if the Devil came to God and said "Your people follow you like a dog follows his master.......You don't even give them a chance to decide if they want to follow you" and whala we have Sin put in by the Devil and God steps back to see what his children will do............Has anyone ever thought if this is possible?
By the way am a believer in God.................=)

In all honesty young Lady, the Bible does tell the beginning, the climax, what we are to do, and what the future is before us. You are letting philosophical thinking get you. Find and read what Paul wrote about that.
The Bible doesn't answer all questions, and satisfy all minds a wondering, but it will tell you indeed, everything you need to know to gain and keep salvation. Keep your life simple,and your thinking Bible oriented, and you'll do good.

Sure, I've wondered if there is another planet similar to earth, where another Adam and Eve got the same chance OUR Adam and Eve got and they didn't blow it. Maybe they are perfect, and their planet is perfect, like ours was supposed to be, with their whole world a garden-like paradise! But we DON'T know, and imagining IF is the biggest waste of time there is. I guess if God had thought it was important for us to know, He would have made certain He had it included in the Bible! Everything else that is worth knowing is! :)

You have more of the truth about this figured out than anyone else I've seen on here so far. How far back to you remember? Do you ever have dreams that seem like they were in another place a very long time ago?

You should read "Dialog with the Devil", by Taylor Caldwell! Excellent book, its about all these other planets where God put different species, and the devil tried to tempt them too.

Well according to Swedenborg this is the worst earth in the universe. However, his contentions in his book - the Earths in the Universe - cannot be proven of course.
Bad examples have their use as just that - bad examples.

I think it's a cool what if, but I strongly disagree that it is in any way possible. Devils are just ignorant people.

Sorry, that is a mere speculation on your part. There is no Biblical support or basis for that line of thinking. We certainly don't have all of the answers to all of our questions, but we will one day when we are in Heaven.

You know what the sin was? It was curiosity. They had inquiring minds. If God is all powerful why would threats be required.

Kind of like "The Truman Show" in a twisted sort of way?
I've thought about it...don't think it's likely though.
