I had made a post on reddit, I was ranting about aging. Anyways, this is what I got in return, won't show whole original post.

Five words to say about Reddit: Reddit is a toxic wasteland.

That is why I do not have an account there.

Jesus had dinner at Matthew's house. Many tax collectors and “sinners” came and ate with Jesus and his followers.

:D

True, but sometimes it gets hard to continually have dinner with bad forces. Please do not give Reddit much of your time, or money (yes, even Reddit has a subscription service, for fancy avatars).

Cool. Anyways, good luck on the responses here. I am backing out, just had to give my $0.02 on the topic of Reddit.

Life in the flesh is one thing everlasting life is another. Jesus Christ of Nazareth came to restore everlasting lasting life once lost by the fall but now restored through Him. This has to do with the " second death" and not our death in the flesh. Adam and Eve walked with God which means they had no knowledge of the second death. As far as their flesh, I do believe at some point it would have expired.
Blessings

I'm unsure what the other person intended by using Mark 4:15, except that Adam and Eve seemingly immediately fell, having believed the serpent's lie.

As an objection to your point, that seems to suggest that God intended the fall to happen--a position most Christians would not agree with, though I'm aware at least some Calvinists hold that the Fall itself was predestined (debates between Supralapsarians and Infralapsarians among Calvinists are common). Supralapsarians believe God's decrees of election and reprobation are from before (supra) the fall (lapse); whereas Infralapsarians hold that these decrees are after (infra) the fall. Thus from a Supralapsarian perspective the Fall is itself part of God's decree; and thus intended by God.

Outside of a Calvinist, and specifically Supralapsarian perspective, I'm not sure how else to understand how Mark 4:15 is meant to relate to the topic of the Fall.
