I'm sure your scenario would not be appealing to anyone...not even God. Where do you get the idea that God ever meant any human to go to heaven in the beginning at all? There is no mention of that anywhere in the Hebrew scriptures. If Adam had just remained faithful, there would never have been any need for death or suffering or tragedy to have ever been experienced by the human race. Christ would never have come into the world, and there would have been no one going to heaven......ever.
God created mortal, material beings to inhabit a material earth, in a material universe.....why would God create humans on earth if he was only going to take them to heaven after a hellish existence on earth?
Makes no sense.What does make sense is, if God took the rebellion that occurred in Eden and made an object lesson out of it.
Once 'the knowledge of good and evil' was unleashed, there was no sending it back. Doesn't it make sense that God would then use it as a means to illustrate the folly of what they had done? All he had to do was step back and allow all that they wanted to do, to play out naturally, knowing full well how it would end. He designed humans to be ruled by him, not each other. As soon as one person's will is imposed on another, there is conflict. Power corrupts humans like nothing else.
The abuse of free will was an opportunity to demonstrate where unguided thinking and rulership independent of the Creator, would lead the human race.....and here we are. What have we learned? Precious little by the looks because we keep repeating the same mistakes.
Where will it end? God will take us back to the beginning because what he purposed back then will not go unfulfilled. (Isaiah 55:11) Those who have heeded the lessons taught by Jesus will enjoy the life that we were all suppose to have in the first place...those who failed to learn them will not be given citizenship in God's kingdom here on earth. They will face permanent eviction.
As King David wrote....
"Do not be upset because of evil men
Or envious of wrongdoers.
2 They will quickly wither like grass
And shrivel like green new grass.
3 Trust in Jehovah and do what is good;
Reside in the earth, and act with faithfulness.
4 Find exquisite delight in Jehovah,
And he will grant you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to Jehovah;
Rely on him, and he will act in your behalf.
6 He will make your righteousness shine like daybreak,
And your justice like the midday sun.
7 Keep silent before Jehovah
And wait expectantly for him.
Do not be upset by the man
Who succeeds in carrying out his schemes.
8 Let go of anger and abandon rage;
Do not become upset and turn to doing evil.
9 For evil men will be done away with,
But those hoping in Jehovah will possess the earth.
10 Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more;
You will look at where they were,
And they will not be there.
11 But the meek will possess the earth,
And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.
12 The wicked man plots against the righteous;
He grinds his teeth at him,
13 But Jehovah will laugh at him,
For He knows that his day will come. . . . . .
27 Turn away from bad and do what is good,
And you will remain forever.
28 For Jehovah loves justice,
And he will not abandon his loyal ones.
They will always be guarded;
But the descendants of the wicked will be done away with.
29 The righteous will possess the earth,
And they will live forever on it." (Psalm 37)
That is what I look forward to.
