Remember the scripture where Adam and Eve were evicted from the Garden of Eden? The Lord placed cherubim with swords, guarding the garden so that Adam and Eve could not re-enter. I wonder, how long do you think those cherubim guarded the garden? After their eviction, Adam and Eve had to toil in the soil, work to make a living, and Eve gave birth to Cain and Abel. I wonder if those cherubim continued guarding the garden after Adam and Eve populated the earth? Do you think Adam and Eve told their kids about the garden, taking them over there, showing them where they sinned and, perhaps, their children saw the cherubim guarding the garden?

If you had to guess, how long do you think those cherubim stayed there? How long did the Garden of Eden exist before the Lord took it away? When I say ‘take it away’ I’m implying that the Garden of Eden no longer existed and the ground became like the rest of the earth.
