Was there ever a guarantee that they would have lived for ever?

According to biblical source they were made in God's image and immortal. Their punishment was mortality and expulsion.

Today science finds that aging is like a very slow disease. It's why many believe aging can be "cured" to various degrees. We also know that some animals don't die from old age. These simply die from predation.

Science says it's at least plausible.

We don't know about how "immortal" Adam and Eve were, but the tree of life was in the garden with them, and they were permitted to eat from it (but didn't get around to it) which is why they ended up getting kicked out after eating from the tree of knowledge.

God said "on the day you shall eat of this fruit, you shall die"

ON THE DAY

The serpent said "you shall not die, but becone as God, knowing good from evil"

The serpent told the truth, she did not die, but her eyes were opened, knowing good from evil.

The second fruit, that God had kept from her and Adam was the FRUIT OF ETERNAL LIFE, meaning that no, they were NOT immortal in Eden, as God had exiled them in FEAR that they would eat of it, and live forever.

Third is that death was NOT the consequence of their original sin, the curses were as follows: Adam would toil to feed himself and his family for all his days. Eve would experience pain in childbirth. The serpent would lose its limbs, forcing it to crawl on it'd belly to get around, and would eat dust. Finally, they would all be subject to illness and hardship, in the form of war, famine, pestilence, and UNNATURAL deaths.

Implying that before, they experienced NATURAL death in Eden, but that was ALL that they experienced in terms of death.

ON THE DAY

God does not reckon time as we do.

A day is as a thousand years and a thousand years is as a day.
